mutt

Mutt is a small but very powerful text-based mail client for Unix operating systems. Though written from scratch, Mutt's initial interface was based largely on the ELM mail client. To a large extent, Mutt is still very ELM-like in presentation of information in menus (and in fact, ELM users ... [More] will find it quite painless to switch as the default key bindings are identical). As development progressed, features found in other popular clients such as PINE and MUSH have been added, the result being a hybrid, or "mutt." [Less]

GnomeVFS

GnomeVFS is a library that allows applications to transparently access various types of filesystems through a uniform interface. GnomeVFS modules include support for things such as WebDAV, ftp, local filesystem, gzip, bzip2, cdda, and others. GNOME VFS is currently used as one of the foundations of the Nautilus file manager

Perl Email Project

The Perl Email Project (PEP) is a community dedicated to making Perl the best choice language for email processing. It maintains existing code, documents known problems and solutions, and develops new tools.

Apache Tika

claimed by Apache Software Foundation

The Apache Tika™ toolkit detects and extracts metadata and structured text content from various documents using existing parser libraries. Tika is a project of the Apache Software Foundation, and was formerly a subproject of Apache Lucene.

MIME-tools

Perl modules for parsing and creating MIME entities

Apache JAMES mime4j

claimed by Apache Software Foundation

mime4j provides a parser, MimeStreamParser , for e-mail message streams in plain rfc822 and MIME format. The parser uses a callback mechanism to report parsing events such as the start of an entity header, the start of a body, etc. If you are familiar with the SAX XML parser interface you should ... [More] have no problem getting started with mime4j. The parser only deals with the structure of the message stream. It won't do any decoding of base64 or quoted-printable encoded header fields and bodies. This is intentional - the parser should only provide the most basic functionality needed to build more complex parsers. However, mime4j does include facilities to decode bodies and fields and the Message class described below handles decoding of fields and bodies transparently. [Less]

Apache Any23

claimed by Apache Software Foundation

Anything To Triples (any23) is a library and web service that extracts structured data in RDF format from a variety of Web documents. Currently it supports the following input formats: RDF/XML, Turtle, Notation 3 RDFa Microformats: Adr, Geo, hCalendar, hCard, hListing, hResume, hReview, License ... [More] , XFN Any23 is written in Java and licensed under the Apache License. Documentation is available in the Wiki. The original codebase comes from open-sourcing the “RDFizer” component of the Sindice search engine. The project is supported by DERI Galway and the OKKAM project (ICT-215032). [Less]

Java Mime Magic Library

jMimeMagic is a Java library for determining the content type of files or streams.

Mime Type Detection Utility

Allow Java programs to detect file mime types based on file extension and magic numbers (API supports java.io.File and java.io.InputStream). Reads the system's magic files when used on Unix (for Windows, internal resources are included in the library).

io-tools

Stream Utilities (EasyStream)Small set of utilities for dealing with streams. You can use this library for: 'Convert' an OutputStream into an InputStream. Stream statistics gathering: bytes read/written, bit rate. Stream buffering: read the content of an InputStream multiple times or seek ... [More] to a definite position. Stream wiring: While reading the data from an InputStream "tee" it to supplied OutputStream(s) or write data to multiple OutputStream(s) at the same time. EasyStream is a natural extension of Apache commons-io, providing advanced solutions to some common but not trivial problem. Focus is on performance and memory usage. Format detection (WazFormat)This library is a format identification framework that integrates a native format identification engine with droid and in future will integrate mime-utils and apache tika. Supports more than 60 file formats. on the fly detection: it wraps the original InputStream so it's able to "preserve" the data in it for further processing (the data is eventually buffered to disk or to memory but the users won't notice it). Nested detection: it can detect what is inside a bzip2 stream or a PKCS#7 document. Result of identification is an Enum. Most of identification libraries return a string that must be further parsed by the calling software. What is next ?Take the 5 minutes tutorials: 'Convert' an OutputStream into an InputStream introduction stream utilities explained usage. format identification. Check out the full API (Javadoc) at easystream and wazformat . Download the latest version (see the link on the right) or if you're a Maven2 user install it (if you use Maven2 you'll get the freshest but stable version). Post your questions on the users forum.
