Answer 1

After you get the GmailMessage object, you can get the email address by first getting the RFC Header named "From" using GmailMessage.getHeader("From"), and then apply a certain Regular Expression to it.

Like this:

 // Get email from RFC Header "From"
 var rfcHeaderFrom = message.getHeader("From");
 var rfcHeaderFromMailRegex = /[^< ]+(?=>)/g;

 var mailSender = rfcHeaderFrom.match(rfcHeaderFromMailRegex)[0];

That will return an email address like: "user@example.com"
