python 接收邮件（pop3与imap）

首先是pop3与imap的区别：

简单来说主要区别就是imap可以不用把所有的邮件全部下载，就通过客户端直接对服务器上的邮件进行操作。IMAP它只下载邮件的主题，并不是把所有的邮件内容都下载下来.

pop3

import poplib

emailServer = poplib.POP3('192.168.88.7')
emailServer.user('qa01@corp.globalmarket.com')
emailServer.pass_('123456')

# 获取一些统计信息
emailMsgNum, emailSize = emailServer.stat()
print 'email number is %d and size is %d'%(emailMsgNum, emailSize)

# 遍历邮件，并打印出每封邮件的标题
for i in range(emailMsgNum):
    for piece in emailServer.retr(i+1)[1]:
        if piece.startswith('Subject'):
            print '\t' + piece
            break

emailServer.quit()

imap

import imaplib, string, email
M = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL("imap.gmail.com")
print M
try:
    try:
        M.login('chemboking@gmail.com','12345678')
    except Exception,e:
        print 'login error: %s' % e
        M.close()
    M.select()
    result, message = M.select()
    typ, data = M.search(None, 'ALL')
    for num in string.split(data[0]):
        try:
            typ, data = M.fetch(num, '(RFC822)')
            msg = email.message_from_string(data[0][1])
            print msg["From"]
            print msg["Subject"]
            print msg["Date"]
            print "_______________________________"
        except Exception,e:
            print 'got msg error: %s' % e
    M.logout()
    M.close()
except Exception, e:
    print 'imap error: %s' % e
    M.close()
