When Outlook replies to a reply from Mail.app (for example), there may not be a delimiter between the reply and the From/To/Subject headers from the last reply. For instance:

And another reply!

With a second line.

I would expect the last reply to be just "And another reply!", but instead it includes the previous headers plus the "A reply" line. I don't really have a good solution (aside from maybe checking for a "From" header line), and don't fully understand the code, just thought I'd mention it.

quotes = []
for f in r.fragments:
  if f.quoted:
    quotes.append(f.content)

print '\n'.join(quotes)

something like EmailMessage.get_quotations()

for example when I send this email from an email like devteam+bf2b64b6e34b11e2aeda1231400178dd@mailit.ciudadanointeligente.org in the first line of the response it adds a newline character between the < and the beginning of the from email. The email ends up being like the following

Hi,

can someone confirm that html based emails not working for this method call?
EmailReplyParser.parse_reply(email_message)

It is not extracting any content for me

I gather this package is no longer maintained by it's original authors. I think every user would benefit if either Zapier transferred ownership to another developer or one of the contributors (e.g. @DisruptiveLabs) renamed their fork and published it on PyPI.

Thoughts?

Currently, there is no constraint between On and wrote: _MULTI_QUOTE_HDR_REGEX = r'(?!On.*On\s.+?wrote:)(On\s(.+?)wrote:)'.

So, even if there is a million characters between On ... blah blah blah ... wrote: it still detects as a multiline quote.

I think the gap between On and wrote: needs to be controlled.

I discovered this bug when the library took 1 minute to parse a long email with multiple On and wrote.

I'm creating a PR for this.

Can I get someone with Pypi permissions to either grant my pypi maintainership over there, or verify the email for @zapier pypi account so new versions can be uploaded?

Thanks

Hey there! we've been using email-reply-parser in our project and we got to a point in which we need to parse the html part of the email, how can I do that?

There appears to be an issue with the original regex defined for matching signatures:
(--|__|-\w)|(^Sent from my (\w+\s*){1,3})

The above correctly matches the phrase: 'Sent from my iPhone' etc.

But the first group also matches any line containing '--', '__' or '-'. So you get matches for any line containing a hyphenated word for instance:
'This is an auto-reply test to see if I receive an automated message'

I've tested this using the online tool at https://regex101.com/ and also using the built-in .Net regular expression matcher.

The fix appears to be to ensure the first group only looks for matches that start with the defined characters:
(^--|^__|^-\w)|(^Sent from my (\w+\s*){1,3})

Hi! We are trying to use the EmailReplyParser in our project. We are now testing it. We ran EmailReplyParser.parse_reply(message)
And we noticed that in parsing this message https://gist.github.com/teeranan/46ccdd3f8dacbc061bde. The parser removed all the lines after the line "-------------- next part --------------". Is this part not considered as a reply in your parser?

Hi,

is this package dead? Is there a forn or other solution which is up to date?

Regards

The current master __init__.py currently will throw out error for :

    self.fragment = Fragment(is_quoted, line, headers=is_header)
    NameError: global name 'is_header' is not defined

As the error message stated, this is due to undefined variable is_header at :

https://github.com/zapier/email-reply-parser/blob/master/email_reply_parser/__init__.py#L109-L115

I believe this PR-27 is an attempt to roll back and fix.
Could someone approve/resolve ?
Thanks.

@bryanhelmig if you have pypi push access, do you have time to set this up later (or just travis encrypt the password, and send that blob my way)?

Hi

I am trying to package pyhton-email_reply_parser in Fedora repos but %{__python2} setup.py test and %{__python2} setup.py test fails :(

Just wanted to say that this library is AWESOME!

By the way, can you port over some of the newer changes to https://github.com/github/email_reply_parser

Thanks
