On the github page for the proejct you reference they have an example:

---8<[snip]---
mail =3D Mail.read('/path/to/message.eml')

mail.from.addresses  #=3D> ['mikel@test.lindsaar.net', 'ada@test.lindsaar.n=
et']
---8<[snip]---

So once you've downloaded messages, for each message you just reference
the mail.from.addresses attribute and it gives you an array of the email
addresses themselves. Is that not what you want?
