[REBOL] Re: E-mail header info strip-off
From: philb:upnaway at: 10-Jun-2001 0:03
Hi Scott,
That will not work for multiple messages in a single text file.
Though I should think it would be easy to split the single text file into individual
text files. Then load up the directory read through the files one at a time and use import-email
message.
If this is the route you go down then you might be interested in an email client I am
working on. It expects all the seperate emails to be in seperate files inside a directory.
Cheers Phil

Hi, Geza,
This is a tough one!!!!!
First, 'message is an email message that includes all the great headers that you
dislike. ;-)
Now for the magic that I slaved *all* morning over:
my-email-object: import-email message
I'm glad THAT project is over. REBOL already thought of this one and they did
it just for you!
