Hi,

I'm trying to create an email-scraping tool using IMAP on curl. I have
two questions:

1) What is the request to download the headers from an email in a
mailbox other than 'Inbox'? The current commands I've tried are like this:

e.g. if the mailbox is [Gmail]/Inbox

curl --request 'SELECT "[Gmail]/Important"; FETCH 1 BODY[HEADER]' --url
'imaps://imap.gmail.com/' ...
curl --request ' "[Gmail]/Important" FETCH 1 BODY[HEADER]' --url
'imaps://imap.gmail.com/' ...
curl --request "FETCH 1 BODY[HEADER] "[Gmail]/Important" ' --url
'imaps://imap.gmail.com/' ...
curl --request "FETCH 1 BODY[HEADER]' --url
'imaps://imap.gmail.com/[Gmail]/Important' ...

Note: I can SELECT the mailbox, and there are 3 emails listed in it.

2) What is the request for downloading a list of attachments for an email?

3) What is the request for downloading a specific email attachment for
an email?

Thanks for any help with any of these.

Marcus.
