You know these forwarded virus  warning mails... mostly they contain hundreds of adresses  - You wanna have them all ! You should use your mouse to select the Text of the whole mail. Copy it, and paste it into an empty txt file. Save that on your Harddisk.
Now's the point when /V\AiLFiLtER 2001 (C) comes into action. Start the program, choose the textfile you just created and the Separator Sign most commonly ";" - as Outlook can handle that, but you can also choose "," - which is used by yahoo-mail (if u want to stay anonymous...  *hint: webmail you can use from internet cafe's or in combination with an anonymizer proxy or with both - so nobody can figure out your IP and with that your identity - that assumes that you entered NOT your right name and adress at the webmail setup procedure ;-)).
Mailfilter now generates you a list of all email-adresses. You can either take them out of the first output line, where they're nicely separated, exactly as you need for your purpose, or save them to a textfile for later use. In this way you can collect 1000's of email adresses, which you can use for your political or whatever mails. Also HTML files are accepted as input files ! that means you just have to save by ex. a forum page, and after you can rip all emails out.

You know you'll go to the toilet for half an hour and want to download all games from that cool emulator page. Just save the page to your Hard Disk, and let MAilFilter do the dirty work to filter out all Links to ZIP Files or whatever.
Because you don't like Spyware, you don't use any of these commercial download managers...
After Mailfilter finished, you got a clean txt-file, containing nothing but the raw hyperlinks you wanted. You can use that with LineTerpreter v1.0 ™, which goes through any line of your textfile calling an external command - in that case it would be LeechURL v1.0 ©.

22.07.02: New Release - fixed Uppercase bug in Hyperlinks, added auto Save Settings feature.

How to Use:

Although I have the time making this HTML documentation i didn't have the time to translate the program to english, what means it's in german. But Nevermind, since it just uses a few input boxes I'll explain here what they mean:

• Dateiname means FileName - choose here the file that includes the email adresses.
  
• Mail-Trennzeichen means Mail Separator Sign - choose the sign that separates the mail adresses (as further described in example1)
  
• Ausgabe means Output, that's why Ausgabe in Textdatei means Output to Textfile. If you enable this checkbox, the output will be saved in the file you can specify at the editbox to the right.
  
• relativen Pfadnamen (ohne http://) an folgende Adresse anhängen means: (just used with Hyperlink extraction)
  There are two ways to enter Hyperlinks into a HTML file - either relative or absolute.
  Absolute means, the full path to a file is entered. like http://digilander.iol.it/retnyg/ret-logo.gif 
  Relative means, just the part of the path relative to the adress of the link-containing document is specified, like download/xyz.zip. Because the program cannot know where you got your html file from, you should enter here the full path leading to the HTML file you just saved before, excluding the filename of the html file. If any of the links is NOT relative, my program automatically adds the adress so finally you got absolute links which you by example can use in conjunction with any download program.
  
• Nur Links zu Dateityp means Just Links to the following filetypes  - if you rip out the hyperlinks, it will be only hyperlinks to the specified files.

Note: the function to choose whole folders to work through instead of single files is not implemented yet - but you can download the source, add this feature, and send it back to me ;-)
