How to export mail message body data detectors information, not address bok

Is there anyway to export Apple mail's "data detectors" information within the message body other than to the address book? I don't want to export the other non detector information contained in the body of the message. I would also like to include From, Subject and Date. Preferably the export result would be in a organized comma format.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

James,
Two routes to try come to mind, the first being Applescript. Mail is obviously "aware" of the info contained in the detectors, and of course it knows all about what is contained in the header. You can probably use Applescript to extract the desired data, placing it in a Text Edit document. It has been some time since I haves used Applescript myself, so I won't be much help in guiding you. Regardless, you would need to teach yourself how to use Applescript, even with assistance.
The other route to take would be to drag these emails out of Mail to the Finder, creating standard text files. You could then handle them in one of the command line text editors- scripted, of course- to extract and format the needed data. Again, this is something you'd need to explore on your own.
Since these messages all have the same formatting, it is simply a matter of identifying the data you need, then placing that data in a properly formatted text document. Generally speaking, this is part and parcel of what both Applescript be text editors do.

Simple AppleScript to export Mail messages to FileMaker DB?

Hello everyone,
I'm using a product called "Mail Archiver X" to archive messages from Apple Mail into a custom FileMaker database ("eMailViewerX" - this is the target database that comes with Mail Archiver and is required for the process), from where I copy these messages to my main message archive (another FileMaker DB).
While that process works, it is kind of clumsy (Apple Mail > Mail Archiver X > FileMaker DB #1 > FileMaker DB #2) - and it breaks every time when there is a new version of Apple Mail or OS X until "Mail Archiver X" has been updated by the developer.
So I'm looking for a more simple solution: an AppleScript that will export all messages from exactly one folder ("To Archive") in Apple Mail (4.5/Snow Leopard or 5.0/Lion) as a simple CSV or .tab file, with the following data per line:
Message Sender*
Message Receiver*
Sent Date
Sent Time
Subject
Body
* Separation of name and e-mail address would be cool, but I understand this may not (always) be possible.
The only tricky part may be the conversion of carriage returns in the e-mail messages' body into the special character FileMaker expects in TAB or CSV files. In BBEdit, this is shown as \x{0B} (UTF8: 0B). So there would have to be a Find/Replace for that in the script.
This does not have to be free (although I wouldn't mind - I'd gladly pay for something that is simple and reliable.
If someone knows about such a script or is willing to write it, I would really appreciate it.
TL;DR: I want to export all messages from an Apple Mail folder to a FileMaker-readable CSV file.

You haven't fully specified the problem:
It's not clear what to do when there are multiple recipients of an email
You didn't say precisely what Filemaker fields you wanted in the file, nor what order you wanted them in, nor whether you needed a header row in the text file
That being said, what you want is a script somewhat like the following (with many things still needing to be adjusted):
set archiveFolder to "To Archive"
set tab_delFilePath to "Path:to:tab_del file"
set tab_delText to {}
tell application "Mail"
          set messagesToArchive to every message of mailbox archiveFolder
          repeat with thisMessage in messagesToArchive
                    set thisEntry to {}
                    tell thisMessage
                              set {itsSender, itsRecipients, itsDate, itsSubject, itsText} to {sender, recipients, date received, subject, content}
                              set {senderName, senderAddress} to {extract name from sender, extract address from sender}
                              if senderName = senderAddress then set senderName to ""
-- get date parts
                              set itsDateString to short date string of itsDate
                              set itsTimeString to time string of itsDate
-- there may be multiple recipients; create list
                              set {recipientName, recipientAddress} to {{}, {}}
                              repeat with thisRecipient in recipients
                                        tell thisRecipient
                                                  set recipientName's end to name
                                                  set recipientAddress's end to address
                                        end tell
                              end repeat
-- convert carriage returns to linefeeds in message body; unicode 0B is ascii 11, which is linfeed
                              set itText to my tid(my tid(itsText, return), linefeed)
                              set thisEntry to {senderName, senderAddress, itsDateString, itsTimeString, itsSubject, my tid(recipientName, ","), my tid(recipientAddress, ","), itsText}
                    end tell
                    set end of tab_delText to my tid(thisEntry, tab)
          end repeat
end tell
set tab_delText to tid(tab_delText, return)
set fp to open for access tab_delFilePath with write permission
write tab_delText to fp
close access fp
on tid(input, delim)
-- a subroutine for handling text item delimiters
          set {oldTID, my text item delimiters} to {my text item delimiters, delim}
          if class of input is list then
                    set output to input as text
          else
                    set output to text items of input
          end if
          set my text item delimiters to oldTID
          return output
end tid
it's a place to start, anyway.
If you want to dangle money in front of my eyes, send me an email and I'll get it set up properly on your system (including automating the process and importing the data directly into your filemaker database).

How to setup mail client in Data Integrator 11.7 to make use of mail_to()

How to setup mail client in Data Integrator 11.7 to make use of mail_to() function.
I am using mail_to() function in one of my job to know the status of source file. If source file is not ready, our DI job should fail and send mail notification with reason for failure.
But mail_to() function is not sending any mail. I guess I need to set up email client.
Any one please help to resolve this issue.
Thanks
Phani

From the DI documentation that comes with the installation:
To use this function, a mail client must be installed and running on the Job
Server computer that calls the function. The login account for the mail client
must have the same user name and password as the Data Integrator service.
The type of client varies by the operating system:
u2022 If the Job Server is on a computer running the Windows operating
system, then the mail client must comply with MAPI (message application
programming interface). In addition, the mail client must be configured as
the default mail client. For example, Microsoft Outlook is a MAPI-based
mail client.
If the Job Server is on a computer running the UNIX operating system,
then the mail client must be mailx-compliant.
So:
Mail client installed and configured and set as default
Mail client uses the same credentials as the job server service
Or use another function: smtp_to();
If still not working or you are not allowed to use an installed mailclient on your box, then try Blat: http://www.blat.net/

How to export the text edit data to excel file without splitting the data in excel file?

how to export the text edit data to excel file without splitting the data in excel file?
I have a requirement in SAP HR where in the appraiser can add comments in the area given and can export that to excel file. Currently the file is getting exported but the comments getting split into deifferent rows.
I want the entire comment to be fit in one row.
Please help.
Thank you

Hi,
if your text edit value is stored in 'lv_string' variable.
then before exporting the value to excel you have to remove CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE
that is '#' from the variable lv_string.
for that use code some thing like this.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE in lv_string WITH space.
I think this will do the trick.

Hi.
This I have seen before...
It can be that the SMTP relay server is configured to only allow certain IP ranges or addresses.
It can be that the firewall on the SP server does not allow for SMTP traffic (normally 25, for example for Exchange).
It can be that there is an Antivirus on the SP server(Client AV) that prohobits the Timer service to send email from this server. I have seen MacAfee do this. Needed an policy change.
If, its the builtin SMTP service you are using, check this link:
http://blog.sharepointrx.com/2010/11/18/setting-up-the-iis-smtp-server-for-sending-email-from-sharepoint-2010-on-server-2008-r2/
Check that and try again.

How to read the message body in a mail

how can we read the message body of a mail. i am using pop3 server for reading the mails. my program is
public class GetMessageExample {
public static void main (String args[]) throws Exception {
String host = args[0];
String username = args[1];
String password = args[2];
Properties props = new Properties();
Session session = Session.getInstance(props, null);
Store store = session.getStore("pop3");
store.connect(host, username, password);
Folder folder = store.getFolder("INBOX");
folder.open(Folder.READ_ONLY);
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader (
new InputStreamReader(System.in));
Message message[] = folder.getMessages();
for (int i=0, n=message.length; i<n; i++) {
System.out.println(i + ": " + message.getFrom()[0]
+ "\t" + message[i].getSubject());
System.out.println(
"Do you want to read message? [YES to read/QUIT to end]");
String line = reader.readLine();
if ("YES".equals(line)) {
message[i].writeTo(System.out);
} else if ("QUIT".equals(line)) {
break;
folder.close(false);
store.close();
i am getting the following exception
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: contentStream
at com.sun.mail.pop3.POP3Message.getContentStream(POP3Message.java:115)

The Part interface that the Message class implements describes 3 ways for getting the content of a message. To use an Input Stream, you can call the getInputStream() method on the message itself, rather than System.in.
Hope this helps!

Import/Export Mail messages

Can anyone tell me how to export all my email messages from Mail from one computer to another?
Ie, from an iMac G5 to a MacBook.
All I seem to be able to achieve is copying the application and not the actual email messages.

How can I save mail messages to my computer and not my mail program

My mail program seems to be slow. I'm not sure why. I get the spinning ball frequently. I need to save mail messages sometimes for a few years and there are hundreds of emails. Is it better to save them on my computer than my mail program? I may need to retrieve them at some other time so they need to be readable. Is that possible?
I'm using OS X 10.9.4. I have a 3.06 GHz processor and 12 GB of memory. Thanks

You can select to export a folder to save as a .mbox file. This file would need to be imported if you wanted to view the messages.
Select mailbox (folder)
Under Mailbox in the Menu bar select Export Mailbox...
You might also want to check out the demo for EagleFiler by the author for SpamSieve. You could view and search the messages archived in EagleFiler.
http://c-command.com/eaglefiler/
Regarding Mail being slow....
Is it only Mail that is slow? How much free space on your drive? Use Disk Utility to find available space.

How to restore mail messages and address book?

Recently the hard drive on my eMac failed. The drive would no longer mount. Fortunately, my entire user folder has been recovered. While I see the files such as AddressBook.data and Incoming_Mail they are showing up as generic documents. I can't seem to import these files or open them with their respective applications (Address Book and Mail). How can I restore these previous messages and prior address book? I want to add this recovered data to the new address book and mailboxes that I have created in the interim after the hard drive crashed and I began using another Mac.
17" iMac Mac OS X (10.4.8)
20" iMac Intel Core 2 Duo Mac OS X (10.4.8)

the new version of Mail is not recognizing the mbox files and therefore I can't import them.
Again, this is wrong. Not only does Mail 2.x recognize Mail 1.x mailboxes, but can import them as either Mail for Mac OS X or as Other. The exact procedure is slightly different in each case.
I need a way to bring these old mbox message files into Tiger.
And I need that you explain what exactly it is that you’re doing and what exactly is the problem in order to be able to determine what exactly it is that you’re doing wrong...
