Python and Outlook - Marking message thread as 'read'

My company uses JIRA to track issues, and is set up to send an e-mail to all watchers and tagged users whenever an update is done on the issue. We also have some automation in place that will adjust fields on the issue (like sprint number) whenever it gets closed (this'll also send an e-mail). I also have a filter within Outlook that'll put any e-mail from JIRA into a separate subfolder 'JIRA'.

I often receive e-mails on issues that have been closed. I'm trying to write a small Python script that'll mark all these e-mails as read if the JIRA issue has been closed already. The basic idea is I can run this script once a week or so to clean up my mailbox.

I'm using the pywin32 and jira packages to do this, but I can't figure out how to change a message status. The fact that documentation is scarce doesn't help...

What I have:

import re
import textwrap

from jira import JIRA
import pandas as pd
import win32com.client

jira = JIRA("<JIRA URL>", None, ("<USER>", "<JIRA API key>"))
outlook = win32com.client.Dispatch("Outlook.Application").GetNamespace("MAPI")
wrapper = textwrap.TextWrapper(initial_indent="", width=100, subsequent_indent=" " * 4)
days_back = 10
start_time = pd.to_datetime("now").floor("D") - pd.to_timedelta(days_back, unit="D")
for message in outlook.getDefaultFolder(6).Folders.Item("JIRA").Items.Restrict(f"[ReceivedTime] >= '{start_time.strftime('%d/%m/%Y %H:%M %p')}'"):
    if message.Unread:
        jira_issue = re.search("\[JIRA\] \([A-Z0-9-]+\)", str(message)).group().split()[1][1:-1]
        print(message, jira_issue)
        print(message.body)
        issue = jira.issue(jira_issue)
        status = issue.fields.status
        if status in ("Done", "Checked"):
            message.Unread = False

as noted in this SO issue. This doesn't seem to mark any e-mail as read.

Is this something I can even do in Python? If so, how? If not, what could be an alternative approach?

The number of nodes and edges I calculated manually and by a method provided by networkx library dont match

I am trying to analyse a graph using networkx library in Python. I have implemented a function that returns the nodes and edges of that graph. After that I counted the number of nodes and edges by implementing the len() function for nodes and edges, which gave me 17 for both nodes and edges. However, when I used the method graph.number_of_nodes() of networkx library it gave me 53. My code: import pandas as pd import networkx as nx import matplotlib.pyplot as plt header_list = ["a","b","w"] E =pd.read_csv("aves-barn-swallow-contact-network.edges",sep=" ",header= None,names=header_list) # print(E.head()) # prints first few rows of the csv file G = nx.from_pandas_edgelist(E,"a","b",["w"]) nx.draw(G) plt.show() class GraphAnalyse: #finding nodes and edges def nodeEdge(self,Graph): nodes = Graph.nodes() edges = Graph.edges() ...
