| # If the e-mail headers are in a file, uncomment this line: | |
| #headers = Parser().parse(open(messagefile, 'r')) | |
| # Or for parsing headers in a string, use: | |
| headers = Parser().parsestr('From: <user@example.com>\n' | |
| 'To: <someone_else@example.com>\n' | |
| 'Subject: Test message\n' | |
| '\n' | |

| # Now the header items can be accessed as a dictionary: | |
| print 'To: %s' % headers['to'] | |
| print 'From: %s' % headers['from'] | |
| print 'Subject: %s' % headers['subject'] |
