GetOutlook is a python script which downloads all mail from an Outlook account.

It is initially based on the work of GetLive (https://sourceforge.net/projects/getlive/). The interface almost backwards compatible to support drop-in replacement.

The mail will be downloaded in mbox format, which is compatible with many mail programs.

Get the GetOutlook.py file and install the required python modules (mechanize etc) with your favorite python package installer.

Modify the config file with your desired options (see below) and start fetching.

Usage: GetOutlook.py [options]

Options:
    -h, --help             show this help message and exit
    --config-file=CONFIGFILE
                           Configuration file (mandatory)
    --verbosity=VERBOSITY
                           Verbosity of messages (1/2/10/100)

Config file:

Username = user.name                
Domain = outlook.com
Password = your_secret_password
Downloaded = download.txt           (for old Getlive accounts)
DestinationDir = /path/to/mail      (directory to store email)
StatusFile = status.txt             (new format downloaded messages)
BreakOnAlreadyDownloaded = 40       (break pagescan when seen number of
                                     existing messages, 0 = always scan)

Every option in mandatory, except Downloaded and BreakOnAlreadyDownloaded
