tell application "Mail"
    set theMailbox to mailbox "Your Mailbox Name"
    set theEmailAddresses to {}
    repeat with theMessage in messages of theMailbox
        set theFromAddress to from address of theMessage
        set theToAddress to to address of theMessage
        set theCCAddress to cc address of theMessage
        set theBCCAddress to bcc address of theMessage

Replace "Your Mailbox Name" with the name of the mailbox you want to extract email addresses from. You can then run this script in AppleScript Editor or save it as a script file and run it from the Script Editor app.
