Dear Sir or Madam, I know how to retrieve the email address from the Craigslist source code which is easily parsed with BeautifulSoup Python module. Writing emails in python is a standard task, too. I have two questions: 1) How do I know which offers to mail to? Are they predefined or do they need to be scraped, too? 2) Is the content of the email the same for all offers? Kind regards, Tom
