I wrote a software sometime, it is called BackupTheBat. Freeware.
See www.thebat.hu/index_e.html :

Features

automatically  exporting  selected  The Bat! account/folder structures
using  given  filename  templates in Unix mailbox format (one file per
folder)

automatically  exporting  selected  The Bat! account/folder structures
using  given  filename  templates in RFC-822 .msg format (one file per
mail). In this mode the given account/folder structure is recreated as
subdirectory system in the target directory.

enable  the  user  to  read  his/her mails with any text editor in the
absence of The Bat!

enable  to make backups with filenames referring of the content/source
of  the  mails  (i.e.  account,  folder,  sender,  subject,  date etc.
property of the exported mail.)


-------

So, if I were you, I would export the mails with BackupTheBat (BTB) from
Inbox as MSG, using e.g. this BTB template:
%MD_%MSE_%MA_%MSU.msg
or whatever you want.

When it is complete, in the directory where the mails exported I would
do this:
list *.msg > 1.txt
where 1.txt contains what you want.

----------
An other possibility:
-make a new folder
-copy every mails from Inbox there
-make a new filter, set it first in the row for Inbox, DO NOT process
the mail with further filters, if the sender has @ in his email,
export the mail to X.txt file. Append. Template: create the template
that will be printed later.

-------------

Maybe this second possibility is easier.
