Collect Senders Email Addresses From Specific Folder At Thunderbird

Question

as my title mentioned I am searching for a solution to get all email addresses that I have received from people and saved inside a certain folder in my Thunderbird.

I need them for marketing purposes, because those email addresses belong to people I have done business with.

Thanks for help.

You can use Message Filter in order to organize your messages.

Updated:

Select all the emails in that folder and saved them on a directory as a *.eml file format.

In the terminal: cd /path/to/eml/directory Then run:

find . -type f -exec cat {} \; | nl | grep "From" | grep -o '[[:alnum:]+\.\_\-]*@[[:alnum:]+\.\_\-]*' | uniq -ui | sort > collected-emails.csv

Now, All the collected emails will be saved in collected-emails.csv
