Hi T,
wait, this code looks strange.
You delete the email if it contains an empty line? I use something like this:
message='\n'.join(connection.retr(msg_num)[1])
Your code:
emailMessage = email.message_from_string(line)
create an email object from only *one* line!
You retrieve the whole message (you don't save bandwith), but maybe that's
what you want.
