python poplib get attachment -


i trying access pop3 email server. polling messages , downloading attachments each 1 of them. can login , messages cannot figure out how attachment, need parse later. i'm thinking save tmp dir until process it.

here's got far:

pop = poplib.pop3_ssl(server) pop.user(usr) pop.pass_(pwd)  f = open(file_dir, 'w') num_msgs = len(pop.list()[1]) msg_list in range(num_msgs):     msg in pop.retr(msg_list+1)[1]:         mail = email.message_from_string(msg)         part in mail.walk():             f.write(part.get_payload(decode=true)) f.close() 

this code pieced examples found online no solid example of getting attachment. file i'm writing empty. missing here? in advance.

i know old question, in case: value you're passing email.message_from_string list of contents of email, each element line. need join string representation of email:

mail = email.message_from_string("".join(msg))
