Can you provide a bit more concert example scenario when you'd use text extractor to get the info?

Hi Clint,

Thanks for your reply.
I was sorting my email inbox in Outlook. When I set the view to “sort by sender” and then “collapse all groups” I can see how many items each sender has sent me, indicated by the number in brackets.
Unfortunately, you can’t sort the mail by the number of items per sender and when you have 1,500 different senders it’s difficult to find who’s sending me the most email.
The only way is to extract the list of senders using an app like Snagit and the scrolling window capture, then using it’s OCR feature to grab the text.
I then paste the text into Sublime Text and run a python script to sort the senders based on who’s sending the most.
It would be nice if PowerToys could essentially do what Snagit is doing.
