Extracting all email addresses from a gmail account

UberTiger · 11 Oct 2010 at 23:10

I need to extract all of the unique email addresses from an archive of about 500 emails in my gmail account.

Can anyone recommend a good fast way of completing this?

A quick google turned this up https://gmailextract.com/
But I'm apprehensive about giving out my login an password (although I could change it just for extraction purposes). Any one used this or got any other ideas?

Thanks.

Log into your GMail account.
Click Contacts
Click the More Actions drop down menu
Click Export.

I haven't added most of them so I didn't think they are in my Contacts.
When I do what you say it says I only have 35, and I find it hard to believe that there's only 35 unique contacts in my 500 emails? :confused:

Hmm, I'm not sure then. I have hundreds when I do it - and I know I haven't added that many.

I ended up just trying the site in the first post, worked like a charm!
Searched 750 emails and extracted 150 unique email addresses.
Top little tool the creator of that site made (provided he hasn't just gone and stolen all my info

) Oh well, sod it if he has, lol.

He's probably just sold all 150 addresses to Nigerians too!
