Thank you Jorgen, now I understand the question, and the answer isn't difficult :-)
Graphviz is good enough for this purpose. >but IIRC there are Python bindings for it as well.< Durumdara can use an email module to extract data, then a graph library to create the graph, and then save the result in dot format for Graphviz. My Graph is probably enough: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pynetwork/ Otherwise NetworkX is good: https://networkx.lanl.gov/ There are other libs around, I have seen a new one quite recently.
