Title says most of it... but looking to export every contact email I
ever contacted from iMail (Mac OS).

ie: when I create a new message, all the suggested emails that come up
on "To:" - can I export this? I looked endlessly online to no avail.

found this thread: [https://superuser.com/questions/1608680/export-
email-from-addresses-from-imap-server-as-
csv](https://superuser.com/questions/1608680/export-email-from-
addresses-from-imap-server-as-csv)

I tried it but then I realized it wouldn't export just the contact, it
would export each email individually...

Any ideas?

TIA

If you can use an email program to access your email, you can download
all your emails, export them to files on your HDD, then have a python
script go through them and save all the "from" and "to" email
addresses to a csv file. Should be pretty simple.
