Easiest thing to probably to automate the Outlook COM object or a MAPI Session for CDO access. You can do this easily with the pywin32 extensions. http://pywin32.sf.net You can then use pretty much any published example from around the net. Example (to print the subject of each item in the inbox): <code> import win32com.client outlook = win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch ("Outlook.Application") namespace = outlook.GetNamespace ("MAPI") inbox = namespace.GetDefaultFolder (win32com.client.constants.olFolderInbox) for i in range (inbox.Items.Count): message = inbox.Items[i+1] print message.Subject </code> TJG ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star.
