Email reply parser

Email Reply Parser for Python

A port of GitHub's Email Reply Parser library, by the fine folks at Zapier.

Original port seems abandoned since 2020, this is an attempt to maintain it.

Summary

Email Reply Parser makes it easy to grab only the last reply to an on-going email thread.

Say you'd like to parse out a user's response to your transaction email messages:

Yes that is fine, I will email you in the morning.

Email clients handle reply formatting differently, making parsing a pain. We include tests for many cases. The parsed email:

Yes that is fine, I will email you in the morning.
