我写了一个python脚本来获取我的所有gmail。我有成千上万的旧电子邮件，其中大约有10,000封未读。
成功获取所有电子邮件后，我发现gmail已将所有已获取的电子邮件标记为“已读”。这对我来说是灾难性的，因为我只需要检查所有未读的电子邮件。
如何恢复哪些电子邮件未读的信息？我将每个邮件对象转储到文件中，我的代码核心如下所示：
m = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL("imap.gmail.com")
m.login(user,pwd)
m.select("[Gmail]/All Mail")
resp, items = m.uid('search', None, 'ALL')
uids = items[0].split()
for uid in uids:
resp, data = m.uid('fetch', uid, "(RFC822)")
email_body = data[0][1]
mail = email.message_from_string(email_body)
dumbobj(uid, mail)
我希望有一个选项可以在gmail中撤消这个，或者反映所见状态信息的存储邮件对象中的成员。
对于任何希望防止这种头痛的人，请考虑这个答案here。然而，这对我不起作用，因为已经造成了损害。
编辑： 我已经编写了以下函数来递归地“grep”对象中的所有字符串，并使用以下关键字将其应用于转储的电子邮件对象：
regex = "(?i)((marked)|(seen)|(unread)|(read)|(flag)|(delivered)|(status)|(sate))"
到目前为止，没有结果（只有一个无关的“Delivered-To”）。我可以尝试哪些其他关键字？
def grep_object (obj, regex , cycle = set(), matched = set()):
import re
if id(obj) in cycle:
return
cycle.update([id(obj)])
if isinstance(obj, basestring):
if re.search(regex, obj):
matched.update([obj])
def grep_dict (adict ):
try:
[ [ grep_object(a, regex, cycle, matched ) for a in ab ] for ab in adict.iteritems() ]
except:pass
grep_dict(obj)
try:grep_dict(obj.__dict__)
except:pass
try:
[ grep_object(elm, regex, cycle, matched ) for elm in obj ]
except: pass
return matched
grep_object(mail_object, regex)
答案 0 :(得分：1)
我有类似的问题（不是用gmail），对我来说最大的问题是制作一个可重复的测试用例;我终于设法制作了一个（见下文）。
就Seen标志而言，我现在收集它是这样的：
\Seen标志的IMAP提取将返回空（即，它将不存在，与电子邮件消息相关）。UNSEEN，其中包含该文件夹中新的电子邮件ID（或uid）列表（没有\Seen标记）BODY.PEEK的邮件提取了标题，那么就不会设置邮件\Seen;如果您使用BODY提取，则设置\Seen (RFC822)并未设置\Seen（与Gmail的情况不同）在测试用例中，我尝试pprint.pprint(inspect.getmembers(mail))（代替您的dumpobj(uid, mail)） - 但仅在我确定\Seen之后。我得到的输出发布在mail_object_inspect.txt - 据我所知，没有提到＆＃39; new / read / seen＆＃39;在任何可读字段中都没有;此外mail.as_string()打印：
'From: jesse@example.com\nTo: user@example.com\nSubject: This is a test message!\n\nHello. I am executive assistant to the director of\nBear Stearns, a failed investment Bank. I have\naccess to USD6,000,000. ...\n'
更糟糕的是，没有提及＆＃34;字段＆＃34; imaplib代码中的任何位置（如果文件名不包含不区分大小写的＆＃34;字段＆＃34;在任何地方），则打印文件名：
$ grep -L -i field /usr/lib/python{2.7,3.2}/imaplib.py
/usr/lib/python2.7/imaplib.py
/usr/lib/python3.2/imaplib.py
...所以我猜这些信息没有随你的转储一起保存。
这里有一点重构测试用例。最困难的是找到一个小型IMAP服务器，可以使用一些任意用户和电子邮件快速运行，但无需在系统上安装大量内容。最后我找到了一个：trivial-server.pl，Perl＆＃39; s Net::IMAP::Server的示例文件;在Ubuntu 11.04上测试过。
测试用例粘贴在this gist中，有两个文件（包含很多评论），我会尝试发帖删除：
Net::IMAP::Server服务器（在文件末尾有一个终端输出粘贴，带有telnet客户端会话）imaplib 首先，请确保您有Net::IMAP::Server - 注意，它有很多依赖项，因此以下命令可能需要一段时间才能安装：
sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install Net::IMAP::Server'
然后，在您获得trivial-serverB.pl的目录中，创建一个包含SSL证书的子目录：
mkdir certs
openssl req \
-x509 -nodes -days 365 \
-subj '/C=US/ST=Oregon/L=Portland/CN=localhost' \
-newkey rsa:1024 -keyout certs/server-key.pem -out certs/server-cert.pem
最后使用管理属性运行服务器：
sudo perl trivial-serverB.pl
请注意，trivial-serverB.pl有一个hack，它允许客户端在没有SSL的情况下进行连接。这是trivial-serverB.pl：

上面的服务器在一个终端上运行，在另一个终端中你可以这样做：
python testimap.py
代码将简单地从上面的服务器提供的一条（且唯一的）消息中读取字段和内容，并最终恢复（删除）\Seen字段。
