MailTool

MAIL FROM WHO

Tool to retrieve all e-mail addresses from a configured user. The e-mail addresses will be written in a CSV-file, ordered by the domains of the senders.

Configuration

In the project you'll find the file appsetttings.json, in which you have to configure

• Username - Used to log in to the mail account. Sometimes this is only the name (john), or the complete e-mail address (john@mail.com)
• ImapServer - FQDN of the IMAP server
• SslPort - SSL port to use on the IMAP server. Usualy 993
• IntermediateFile - In this file the tool will store all e-mail addresses (unsorted and likely with duplicates)
• CsvFile - End result in CSV-format. The first column contains the e-mail addresses, the following the name(s) use with the address (can also be none), e.g.
  • john@mail.com,John,John Doe

The tool will prompt for the password. For security reasons, the password can't be stored in the configuration.
