+# Import the email modules we'll need
+from email.parser import Parser
+
+# If the e-mail headers are in a file, uncomment this line:
+#headers = Parser().parse(open(messagefile, 'r'))
+
+# Or for parsing headers in a string, use:
+headers = Parser().parsestr('From: <user@example.com>\n'
+ 'To: <someone_else@example.com>\n'
+ 'Subject: Test message\n'
+ '\n'
+ 'Body would go here\n')
+
+# Now the header items can be accessed as a dictionary:
+print('To: %s' % headers['to'])
+print('From: %s' % headers['from'])
+print('Subject: %s' % headers['subject'])
