Parse Email Inbox

Subject:Parse Email Inbox
Posted by:"Jack Mason" (jackmas..@mindspring.com)

We want to add a feature to one of our applications that will parse an
email inbox.  The inbox can be either Netscape (mbox?) or Thunderbird
(mbox or eml?) format, but we don't want to use Outlook format.

The user would request a parse, we would print a list of what we found
in the inbox.  We do not need to manipulate the email in any way other
than to be able to get the subject, sender, and body of the emails
currently in an already established inbox.  All setup would be done
behind the scenes without the user involvement.

We have been looking at using the Indy TIdMap4 component but are not
certain if that is the best way to go.  Is there an easier way?

Thanks for any help you can provide.
