The extracted email addresses are saved in a Google spreadsheet that you may either download as a CSV file for importing into your mailing list, like MailChimp or Aweber, or you can use that raw list as an input for sending personalized email messages through Mail Merge in Gmail.

Extending the Gmail Extractor
Internally, the Google Script uses Regular Expressions to pull email addresses of senders from messages tagged with a particular label and exports them to a Google Sheet. Since the script needs to track messages that have been processed, it applies the “processed” label to these messages. You can also remove this label after all the email address have been parsed and extracted.The program can be further enhanced to extract data from the body of Gmail messages and this include shipping information, order numbers, parsing legacy contact forms or even your PayPal emails.
