Quickly put a bunch of emails into one file

A little bit of Python I used to run through a couple hundred emails in an Evolution folder and put their contents (minus headers) into one file for analysis.

import os, re
output_file = open('/path/to/output/file', 'a')
email_pat = re.compile('^\d+\.$')
[output_file.write(open(email).read().split('From: ')[1]) for email in os.listdir(os.getcwd()) if email_pat.match(email)]
