Imaplib [search, move, delete] Yahoo Mail

Any python experts willing to share there knowledge, please?! Want to: 1. Search ALL folders including SPAM, for "specific_user@ANY (wildcard) domain" 2. Move those emails to folder called DUMP 3. Delete contents of DUMP Unfortunately I can't figure out how to do what I need above in Yahoo Mail! My code so far below: ``` import imaplib import time ####### IMAP SSL ####### start = time.time() try: imap_ssl = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL(host="imap.mail.yahoo.com", port=993) except Exception as e: print("ErrorType : {}, Error : {}".format(type(e).__name__, e)) imap_ssl = None print("Connection Object : {}".format(imap_ssl)) print("Total Time Taken : {:,.2f} Seconds".format(time.time() - start)) ####### Login to Mailbox ####### print("Logging into mailbox...") try: resp_code, response = imap_ssl.login("XXXXXXX@yahoo.com", "XXXXXXXXXXX") except Exception as e: print("ErrorType : {}, Error : {}".format(type(e).__name__, e)) resp_code, response = None, None print("Response Code : {}".format(resp_code)) print("Response : {}\n".format(response[0].decode())) ####### Missing code to search, move and delete ####### ####### Logout of Mailbox ####### print("\nLogging Out....") try: resp_code, response = imap_ssl.logout() except Exception as e: print("ErrorType : {}, Error : {}".format(type(e).__name__, e)) resp_code, response = None, None print("Response Code : {}".format(resp_code)) print("Response : {}".format(response[0].decode())) ```
