Convert old CSV file to new format

What's this?

As of May 2024, the script has updated to use a new format for the CSV file. This means that the CSV file (accounts.csv) will be easier to use in the future.
Unfortunately the old format is not supported any more, so you will need to convert it to the new format.
You will need to convert the old CSV file only if you have accounts in the accounts.csv file from before May 2024.

Usage:

# Convert old CSV file to new format
$ python convert_csv.py [-h] [-i INPUT_FILE]

• -i Path to the input CSV file. If not specified, accounts.csv will be used.
• -h Show help.

FAQ

• Will this automatically verify emails?

  • Yes, the script will automatically fetch the verification link from the email, and use it to verify the account.

• Can I log in to the accounts, on the web, after generating them?

  • Yes, that is how this script is intended to be used. Simply copy the email address and password from the CSV file and log in to the account.

• There are multiple passwords in the CSV file. Which one should I use?

  • As of May 2024, all columns have appropriate headers.
  • You will need to use the password in the second columns titled MEGA Password.

• What's with the other password then? And why do I need the Mail.tm ID?

  • The other password, in the Mail.tm Password column, is the password for the Mail.tm account.
  • You can use this password to sign in to the temporary Mail.tm account on their website.
  • In order to access the Mail.tm account, through their API, we also need the ID of the account. This is stored in the case it will be needed in the future.

• What's with the -p/--password flag? Do I need it?

  • The -p flag is optional.
  • You can use this to specify a password for all accounts. If not specified, a random password will be generated for each account.

• Can I generate multiple accounts in parallel?

  • Yes, this script can generate multiple accounts in parallel using the -t flag.
  • This is, however, not recommended, and will likely result in rate limits from Mail.tm.
  • The script will automatically retry in the event of a rate limit up to 5 times.

• Why can I only run 8 threads?

  • Because of rate limits from Mail.tm.
  • We do not want to overload their service, which they generously offer for free.

• Something is broken? I'm having trouble using this script.

  • Please open an issue on GitHub. Be sure to include information and screenshots.

Acknowledgements

This software was based heavily on IceWreck/MegaScripts.
His original Python script utilized GuerillaMail to generate temporary email addresses.
I've modified the script to use Mail.tm instead, with a lot of help from qtchaos/py_mega_account_generator.
I highly recommend checking out both of their projects.
