Gmail Extraction to CSV Project

Overview

This project is designed to extract Gmail IDs from emails and save them in a CSV format. The script connects to a Gmail account using the IMAP protocol, retrieves email information, and extracts the email IDs to create a CSV file. This project is useful for anyone looking to collect and organize email addresses from their Gmail account efficiently.

Features

• Email Extraction: Extracts email addresses from your Gmail inbox.
• CSV Export: Saves the extracted email IDs into a CSV file for easy access and analysis.
• Filtering: Includes options to filter emails based on specific criteria (e.g., domain names).

Requirements

• Python 3.x
• Pandas
• IMAPClient
• Email libraries (email, imaplib)

You can install the required libraries using the following command:

pip install pandas imapclient
