Trying to monitor a number of remote MySQL connections

Question

I'm trying to monitor a number of remote database connections.

How can I constantly monitor a GMail account for routing emails based on their header within the same application?

This will need to be standalone or basic package.

Should I build a Qt or .NET app for this?

Answer 1

If you need to constantly monitor the account then you'll probably want to use an IMAP package for this, such as Python's imaplib . A tutorial which should help you read the header information is available here .

Your question doesn't include enough information about what graphical functionality you want in your project to give a good suggestion for which GUI toolkit to use.

If this is a Gmail specific project, you might even consider using the Gmail API and develop your application as a Gmail sidebar gadget.
