Hi, I recently made a program that retrieves emails from an inbox and
enters the body of those emails into a database using IMAP. I was just
wondering, is there any function in IMAP or other solution where I can
just get the body of the new email and exclude the quoted parts of the
previous emails? for example, currently I'm getting things like this in
my database:

Let's try this one out On Jun 30, 2009, at 11:19 AM, Mark wrote: >
Thanks for all your help bud.

^^ here i only want the "Let's try this one out" and not the text that
comes after it.


Different email providers handle quoting in different ways, so I don't
think it's as easy as looking for a certain string and deleting the text
after it. I wouldn't want to do that anyway. Is there an object in IMAP
that handles this? Just curious if anyone has similar experience.
Thanks!
