It solves the problem of extracting only the most recent user reply from an email thread, discarding quoted text, forwarded messages, and previous replies that different email clients format in incompatible ways. The library handles the messy reality that email clients wrap and quote replies differently, making naive text extraction unreliable.\n\nYou pass a full email message as a string to either EmailReplyParser.read() to get a parsed object or EmailReplyParser.parse_reply() to get just the reply text directly. The library has no runtime dependencies and works across Python 2 and 3, making it lightweight and easy to integrate into transaction email processing, support ticket systems, or any workflow where you need to isolate user responses from notification boilerplate.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to extract replies from email threads. The package is stable, has no dependencies, and carries no security vulnerabilities. However, maintenance is dormant\u2014last release was 2020-10-07\u2014so it will not receive updates for modern email formats or Python versions beyond 3.8. Use it for established, low-change email parsing workflows; avoid it if you need active support."},"id":"email-reply-parser","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/email-reply-parser","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/email-reply-parser.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/email-reply-parser/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2020-10-07","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"email-reply-parser","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Email reply parser"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":2014915,"position":3361,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.5.12"}
