Crate email_address_list 

Relatively näive Pest based parser, picking out “contacts” from email address lists found in headers such as from, to, cc, etc.

This library aims to be practical rather than “correct”. It is (potentially excessively) permissive to parse even the worst garbage in anyone’s inbox. Limited testing with real world data has been, but the grammar that forms the basis for this library probably still needs work to catch more edge cases.

Example

use email_address_list::*;

let manual: AddressList = vec![
    Contact::new("ríomhphost@example.org").set_name("Túsainm Sloinne"),
    Contact::new("sampla@example.org")
].into();

let result = parse_address_list(
    "Túsainm Sloinne <ríomhphost@example.org>, sampla@example.org"
).unwrap();

assert!(result.deep_eq(&manual));
