- close mailbox
- logout

import imaplib
USER = 'username@gmail.com'
PASSWORD = 'xxx'
mail = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL('imap.gmail.com', 993)
mail.login(USER, PASSWORD)
mail.select('Inbox')
status, data = mail.search(None, 'ALL')
for num in data[0].split():
status, data = mail.fetch(num, '(RFC822)')
print 'Message %s\n%s\n' % (num, data[0][1])
mail.close()
mail.logout()
