Good video Anthony. Does this library access the click data in the email? If not, what library is responsible for that?

[@prettyprinted]

I'm not sure what you mean by click data, but the general idea of the library is to programmatically do everything that you can already do in your email client.

@@prettyprinted see if someone clicked a link in an email

[@prettyprinted]

There's no metadata stored for link clicks in email clients as far as I know. They're just HTML links inside of the emails. The trick to track email clicks inside of emails you've sent to others can be done links that first track a click before redirecting to the destination URL. That's something that's done in email marketing software by default, so you'd have to look at their APIs for how to get that information if you use the service.
