|
|
I need to extract an email address from the following line:
From: "mary@nowhere.net" <mary@nowhere.net>
I have it set up for specific text starting at From: and going to end of line, but it isn't working.
All I get is "mary@nowhere.net" <mary@nowhere.net>. There is probably a wildcard thing you can do, but I don't know what it is. This is how I get email from paypal when someone has bought something.
Can you help? |

Since we are dealing with the Paypal "Notification of payment received" email that is sent when you receive money in your pay pal account, we can make a general assumption.
The sender of the email is the person who bought the goods from you.
Therefore you don't have to create an 'Incoming email data extractor' field to get the e-mail address.
You can simple use the buildin field [[SenderEmail]] found in the Incoming Email Field list. |
