class Net::IMAP
Net::IMAP
implements Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP
) client functionality. The protocol is described in [IMAP].
IMAP
Overview¶ ↑
An IMAP
client connects to a server, and then authenticates itself using either authenticate()
or login()
. Having authenticated itself, there is a range of commands available to it. Most work with mailboxes, which may be arranged in an hierarchical namespace, and each of which contains zero or more messages. How this is implemented on the server is implementation-dependent; on a UNIX server, it will frequently be implemented as files in mailbox format within a hierarchy of directories.
To work on the messages within a mailbox, the client must first select that mailbox, using either select()
or (for read-only access) examine()
. Once the client has successfully selected a mailbox, they enter selected state, and that mailbox becomes the current mailbox, on which mail-item related commands implicitly operate.
Messages have two sorts of identifiers: message sequence numbers and UIDs.
Message sequence numbers number messages within a mailbox from 1 up to the number of items in the mailbox. If a new message arrives during a session, it receives a sequence number equal to the new size of the mailbox. If messages are expunged from the mailbox, remaining messages have their sequence numbers “shuffled down” to fill the gaps.
UIDs, on the other hand, are permanently guaranteed not to identify another message within the same mailbox, even if the existing message is deleted. UIDs are required to be assigned in ascending (but not necessarily sequential) order within a mailbox; this means that if a non-IMAP client rearranges the order of mailitems within a mailbox, the UIDs have to be reassigned. An IMAP
client thus cannot rearrange message orders.
Examples of Usage¶ ↑
List sender and subject of all recent messages in the default mailbox¶ ↑
imap = Net::IMAP.new('mail.example.com') imap.authenticate('LOGIN', 'joe_user', 'joes_password') imap.examine('INBOX') imap.search(["RECENT"]).each do |message_id| envelope = imap.fetch(message_id, "ENVELOPE")[0].attr["ENVELOPE"] puts "#{envelope.from[0].name}: \t#{envelope.subject}" end
Move all messages from April 2003 from “Mail/sent-mail” to “Mail/sent-apr03”¶ ↑
imap = Net::IMAP.new('mail.example.com') imap.authenticate('LOGIN', 'joe_user', 'joes_password') imap.select('Mail/sent-mail') if not imap.list('Mail/', 'sent-apr03') imap.create('Mail/sent-apr03') end imap.search(["BEFORE", "30-Apr-2003", "SINCE", "1-Apr-2003"]).each do |message_id| imap.copy(message_id, "Mail/sent-apr03") imap.store(message_id, "+FLAGS", [:Deleted]) end imap.expunge
Thread Safety¶ ↑
Net::IMAP
supports concurrent threads. For example,
imap = Net::IMAP.new("imap.foo.net", "imap2") imap.authenticate("cram-md5", "bar", "password") imap.select("inbox") fetch_thread = Thread.start { imap.fetch(1..-1, "UID") } search_result = imap.search(["BODY", "hello"]) fetch_result = fetch_thread.value imap.disconnect
This script invokes the FETCH command and the SEARCH command concurrently.
Errors¶ ↑
An IMAP
server can send three different types of responses to indicate failure:
- NO
-
the attempted command could not be successfully completed. For instance, the username/password used for logging in are incorrect; the selected mailbox does not exist; etc.
- BAD
-
the request from the client does not follow the server’s understanding of the
IMAP
protocol. This includes attempting commands from the wrong client state; for instance, attempting to perform a SEARCH command without having SELECTed a current mailbox. It can also signal an internal server failure (such as a disk crash) has occurred. - BYE
-
the server is saying goodbye. This can be part of a normal logout sequence, and can be used as part of a login sequence to indicate that the server is (for some reason) unwilling to accept your connection. As a response to any other command, it indicates either that the server is shutting down, or that the server is timing out the client connection due to inactivity.
These three error response are represented by the errors Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
, Net::IMAP::BadResponseError
, and Net::IMAP::ByeResponseError
, all of which are subclasses of Net::IMAP::ResponseError
. Essentially, all methods that involve sending a request to the server can generate one of these errors. Only the most pertinent instances have been documented below.
Because the IMAP
class uses Sockets for communication, its methods are also susceptible to the various errors that can occur when working with sockets. These are generally represented as Errno errors. For instance, any method that involves sending a request to the server and/or receiving a response from it could raise an Errno::EPIPE error if the network connection unexpectedly goes down. See the socket(7), ip(7), tcp(7), socket(2), connect(2), and associated man pages.
Finally, a Net::IMAP::DataFormatError
is thrown if low-level data is found to be in an incorrect format (for instance, when converting between UTF-8 and UTF-16), and Net::IMAP::ResponseParseError
is thrown if a server response is non-parseable.

Public Class Methods
Adds an authenticator for Net::IMAP#authenticate
. auth_type
is the type of authentication this authenticator supports (for instance, “LOGIN”). The authenticator
is an object which defines a process() method to handle authentication with the server. See Net::IMAP::LoginAuthenticator
, Net::IMAP::CramMD5Authenticator
, and Net::IMAP::DigestMD5Authenticator
for examples.
If auth_type
refers to an existing authenticator, it will be replaced by the new one.
# File net/imap.rb, line 301 def self.add_authenticator(auth_type, authenticator) @@authenticators[auth_type] = authenticator end
Returns the debug mode.
# File net/imap.rb, line 271 def self.debug return @@debug end
Sets the debug mode.
# File net/imap.rb, line 276 def self.debug=(val) return @@debug = val end
Decode a string from modified UTF-7 format to UTF-8.
UTF-7 is a 7-bit encoding of Unicode [UTF7]. IMAP
uses a slightly modified version of this to encode mailbox names containing non-ASCII characters; see [IMAP] section 5.1.3.
Net::IMAP
does not automatically encode and decode mailbox names to and from UTF-7.
# File net/imap.rb, line 1000 def self.decode_utf7(s) return s.gsub(/&([^-]+)?-/n) { if $1 ($1.tr(",", "/") + "===").unpack1("m").encode(Encoding::UTF_8, Encoding::UTF_16BE) else "&" end } end
The default port for IMAP
connections, port 143
# File net/imap.rb, line 306 def self.default_port return PORT end
The default port for IMAPS connections, port 993
# File net/imap.rb, line 311 def self.default_tls_port return SSL_PORT end
Encode a string from UTF-8 format to modified UTF-7.
# File net/imap.rb, line 1011 def self.encode_utf7(s) return s.gsub(/(&)|[^\x20-\x7e]+/) { if $1 "&-" else base64 = [$&.encode(Encoding::UTF_16BE)].pack("m0") "&" + base64.delete("=").tr("/", ",") + "-" end }.force_encoding("ASCII-8BIT") end
Formats time
as an IMAP-style date.
# File net/imap.rb, line 1023 def self.format_date(time) return time.strftime('%d-%b-%Y') end
Formats time
as an IMAP-style date-time.
# File net/imap.rb, line 1028 def self.format_datetime(time) return time.strftime('%d-%b-%Y %H:%M %z') end
Returns the max number of flags interned to symbols.
# File net/imap.rb, line 281 def self.max_flag_count return @@max_flag_count end
Sets the max number of flags interned to symbols.
# File net/imap.rb, line 286 def self.max_flag_count=(count) @@max_flag_count = count end
Creates a new Net::IMAP
object and connects it to the specified host
.
options
is an option hash, each key of which is a symbol.
The available options are:
- port
-
Port number (default value is 143 for imap, or 993 for imaps)
- ssl
-
If options is true, then an attempt will be made to use SSL (now TLS) to connect to the server. For this to work OpenSSL [OSSL] and the Ruby OpenSSL [RSSL] extensions need to be installed. If options is a hash, it’s passed to OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext#set_params as parameters.
open_timeout
-
Seconds to wait until a connection is opened
The most common errors are:
- Errno::ECONNREFUSED
-
Connection refused by
host
or an intervening firewall. - Errno::ETIMEDOUT
-
Connection timed out (possibly due to packets being dropped by an intervening firewall).
- Errno::ENETUNREACH
-
There is no route to that network.
- SocketError
-
Hostname not known or other socket error.
Net::IMAP::ByeResponseError
-
The connected to the host was successful, but it immediately said goodbye.
# File net/imap.rb, line 1071 def initialize(host, port_or_options = {}, usessl = false, certs = nil, verify = true) super() @host = host begin options = port_or_options.to_hash rescue NoMethodError # for backward compatibility options = {} options[:port] = port_or_options if usessl options[:ssl] = create_ssl_params(certs, verify) end end @port = options[:port] || (options[:ssl] ?

Public Instance Methods
Adds a response handler. For example, to detect when the server sends a new EXISTS response (which normally indicates new messages being added to the mailbox), add the following handler after selecting the mailbox:
imap.add_response_handler { |resp| if resp.kind_of?(Net::IMAP::UntaggedResponse) and resp.name == "EXISTS" puts "Mailbox now has #{resp.data} messages" end }
# File net/imap.rb, line 906 def add_response_handler(handler = nil, &block) raise ArgumentError, "two Procs are passed" if handler && block @response_handlers.push(block || handler) end
Sends a APPEND command to append the message
to the end of the mailbox
. The optional flags
argument is an array of flags initially passed to the new message. The optional date_time
argument specifies the creation time to assign to the new message; it defaults to the current time. For example:
imap.append("inbox", <<EOF.gsub(/\n/, "\r\n"), [:Seen], Time.now) Subject: hello From: shugo@ruby-lang.org To: shugo@ruby-lang.org hello world EOF
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if the mailbox does not exist (it is not created automatically), or if the flags, date_time, or message arguments contain errors.
# File net/imap.rb, line 699 def append(mailbox, message, flags = nil, date_time = nil) args = [] if flags args.push(flags) end args.push(date_time) if date_time args.push(Literal.new(message)) send_command("APPEND", mailbox, *args) end
Sends an AUTHENTICATE command to authenticate the client. The auth_type
parameter is a string that represents the authentication mechanism to be used. Currently Net::IMAP
supports the authentication mechanisms:
LOGIN:: login using cleartext user and password. CRAM-MD5:: login with cleartext user and encrypted password (see [RFC-2195] for a full description). This mechanism requires that the server have the user's password stored in clear-text password.
For both of these mechanisms, there should be two args
: username and (cleartext) password. A server may not support one or the other of these mechanisms; check capability()
for a capability of the form “AUTH=LOGIN” or “AUTH=CRAM-MD5”.
Authentication is done using the appropriate authenticator object: see @@authenticators for more information on plugging in your own authenticator.
For example:
imap.authenticate('LOGIN', user, password)
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if authentication fails.
# File net/imap.rb, line 417 def authenticate(auth_type, *args) auth_type = auth_type.upcase unless @@authenticators.has_key?(auth_type) raise ArgumentError, format('unknown auth type - "%s"', auth_type) end authenticator = @@authenticators[auth_type].new(*args) send_command("AUTHENTICATE", auth_type) do |resp| if resp.instance_of?(ContinuationRequest) data = authenticator.process(resp.data.text.unpack("m")[0]) s = [data].pack("m0") send_string_data(s) put_string(CRLF) end end end
Sends a CAPABILITY command, and returns an array of capabilities that the server supports. Each capability is a string. See [IMAP] for a list of possible capabilities.
Note that the Net::IMAP
class does not modify its behaviour according to the capabilities of the server; it is up to the user of the class to ensure that a certain capability is supported by a server before using it.
# File net/imap.rb, line 359 def capability synchronize do send_command("CAPABILITY") return @responses.delete("CAPABILITY")[-1] end end
Sends a CHECK command to request a checkpoint of the currently selected mailbox. This performs implementation-specific housekeeping; for instance, reconciling the mailbox’s in-memory and on-disk state.
# File net/imap.rb, line 713 def check send_command("CHECK") end
Sends a CLOSE command to close the currently selected mailbox. The CLOSE command permanently removes from the mailbox all messages that have the Deleted flag set.
# File net/imap.rb, line 720 def close send_command("CLOSE") end
Sends a COPY command to copy the specified message(s) to the end of the specified destination mailbox
. The set
parameter is a number, an array of numbers, or a Range object. The number is a message sequence number.
# File net/imap.rb, line 853 def copy(set, mailbox) copy_internal("COPY", set, mailbox) end
Sends a CREATE command to create a new mailbox
.
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if a mailbox with that name cannot be created.
# File net/imap.rb, line 480 def create(mailbox) send_command("CREATE", mailbox) end
Sends a DELETE command to remove the mailbox
.
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if a mailbox with that name cannot be deleted, either because it does not exist or because the client does not have permission to delete it.
# File net/imap.rb, line 489 def delete(mailbox) send_command("DELETE", mailbox) end
Disconnects from the server.
# File net/imap.rb, line 322 def disconnect return if disconnected? begin begin # try to call SSL::SSLSocket#io. @sock.io.shutdown rescue NoMethodError # @sock is not an SSL::SSLSocket. @sock.shutdown end rescue Errno::ENOTCONN # ignore `Errno::ENOTCONN: Socket is not connected' on some platforms. rescue Exception => e @receiver_thread.raise(e) end @receiver_thread.join synchronize do @sock.close end raise e if e end
Returns true if disconnected from the server.
# File net/imap.rb, line 345 def disconnected? return @sock.closed? end
Sends a EXAMINE command to select a mailbox
so that messages in the mailbox
can be accessed. Behaves the same as select()
, except that the selected mailbox
is identified as read-only.
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if the mailbox does not exist or is for some reason non-examinable.
# File net/imap.rb, line 469 def examine(mailbox) synchronize do @responses.clear send_command("EXAMINE", mailbox) end end
Sends a EXPUNGE command to permanently remove from the currently selected mailbox all messages that have the Deleted flag set.
# File net/imap.rb, line 726 def expunge synchronize do send_command("EXPUNGE") return @responses.delete("EXPUNGE") end end
Sends a FETCH command to retrieve data associated with a message in the mailbox.
The set
parameter is a number or a range between two numbers, or an array of those. The number is a message sequence number, where -1 represents a ‘*’ for use in range notation like 100..-1 being interpreted as ‘100:*’. Beware that the exclude_end?
property of a Range object is ignored, and the contents of a range are independent of the order of the range endpoints as per the protocol specification, so 1…5, 5..1 and 5…1 are all equivalent to 1..5.
attr
is a list of attributes to fetch; see the documentation for Net::IMAP::FetchData
for a list of valid attributes.
The return value is an array of Net::IMAP::FetchData
or nil (instead of an empty array) if there is no matching message.
For example:
p imap.fetch(6..8, "UID") #=> [#<Net::IMAP::FetchData seqno=6, attr={"UID"=>98}>, \\ #<Net::IMAP::FetchData seqno=7, attr={"UID"=>99}>, \\ #<Net::IMAP::FetchData seqno=8, attr={"UID"=>100}>] p imap.fetch(6, "BODY[HEADER.FIELDS (SUBJECT)]") #=> [#<Net::IMAP::FetchData seqno=6, attr={"BODY[HEADER.FIELDS (SUBJECT)]"=>"Subject: test\r\n\r\n"}>] data = imap.uid_fetch(98, ["RFC822.SIZE", "INTERNALDATE"])[0] p data.seqno #=> 6 p data.attr["RFC822.SIZE"] #=> 611 p data.attr["INTERNALDATE"] #=> "12-Oct-2000 22:40:59 +0900" p data.attr["UID"] #=> 98
# File net/imap.rb, line 817 def fetch(set, attr, mod = nil) return fetch_internal("FETCH", set, attr, mod) end
Send the GETACL command along with a specified mailbox
. If this mailbox exists, an array containing objects of Net::IMAP::MailboxACLItem
will be returned.
# File net/imap.rb, line 639 def getacl(mailbox) synchronize do send_command("GETACL", mailbox) return @responses.delete("ACL")[-1] end end
Sends the GETQUOTA command along with specified mailbox
. If this mailbox exists, then an array containing a Net::IMAP::MailboxQuota
object is returned. This command is generally only available to server admin.
# File net/imap.rb, line 603 def getquota(mailbox) synchronize do send_command("GETQUOTA", mailbox) return @responses.delete("QUOTA") end end
Sends the GETQUOTAROOT command along with the specified mailbox
. This command is generally available to both admin and user. If this mailbox exists, it returns an array containing objects of type Net::IMAP::MailboxQuotaRoot
and Net::IMAP::MailboxQuota
.
# File net/imap.rb, line 589 def getquotaroot(mailbox) synchronize do send_command("GETQUOTAROOT", mailbox) result = [] result.concat(@responses.delete("QUOTAROOT")) result.concat(@responses.delete("QUOTA")) return result end end
Sends an IDLE command that waits for notifications of new or expunged messages. Yields responses from the server during the IDLE.
Use idle_done()
to leave IDLE.
If timeout
is given, this method returns after timeout
seconds passed. timeout
can be used for keep-alive. For example, the following code checks the connection for each 60 seconds.
loop do imap.idle(60) do |res| ... end end
# File net/imap.rb, line 953 def idle(timeout = nil, &response_handler) raise LocalJumpError, "no block given" unless response_handler response = nil synchronize do tag = Thread.current[:net_imap_tag] = generate_tag put_string("#{tag} IDLE#{CRLF}") begin add_response_handler(&response_handler) @idle_done_cond = new_cond @idle_done_cond.wait(timeout) @idle_done_cond = nil if @receiver_thread_terminating raise @exception || Net::IMAP::Error.new("connection closed") end ensure unless @receiver_thread_terminating remove_response_handler(response_handler) put_string("DONE#{CRLF}") response = get_tagged_response(tag, "IDLE") end end end return response end
Leaves IDLE.
# File net/imap.rb, line 983 def idle_done synchronize do if @idle_done_cond.nil? raise Net::IMAP::Error, "not during IDLE" end @idle_done_cond.signal end end
Sends a LIST command, and returns a subset of names from the complete set of all names available to the client. refname
provides a context (for instance, a base directory in a directory-based mailbox hierarchy). mailbox
specifies a mailbox or (via wildcards) mailboxes under that context. Two wildcards may be used in mailbox
: ‘*’, which matches all characters including the hierarchy delimiter (for instance, ‘/’ on a UNIX-hosted directory-based mailbox hierarchy); and ‘%’, which matches all characters except the hierarchy delimiter.
If refname
is empty, mailbox
is used directly to determine which mailboxes to match. If mailbox
is empty, the root name of refname
and the hierarchy delimiter are returned.
The return value is an array of Net::IMAP::MailboxList
. For example:
imap.create("foo/bar") imap.create("foo/baz") p imap.list("", "foo/%") #=> [#<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noselect], delim="/", name="foo/">, \\ #<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noinferiors, :Marked], delim="/", name="foo/bar">, \\ #<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noinferiors], delim="/", name="foo/baz">]
# File net/imap.rb, line 546 def list(refname, mailbox) synchronize do send_command("LIST", refname, mailbox) return @responses.delete("LIST") end end
Sends a LOGIN command to identify the client and carries the plaintext password
authenticating this user
. Note that, unlike calling authenticate()
with an auth_type
of “LOGIN”, login()
does not use the login authenticator.
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if authentication fails.
# File net/imap.rb, line 440 def login(user, password) send_command("LOGIN", user, password) end
Sends a LOGOUT command to inform the server that the client is done with the connection.
# File net/imap.rb, line 373 def logout send_command("LOGOUT") end
Sends a LSUB command, and returns a subset of names from the set of names that the user has declared as being “active” or “subscribed.” refname
and mailbox
are interpreted as for list()
. The return value is an array of Net::IMAP::MailboxList
.
# File net/imap.rb, line 651 def lsub(refname, mailbox) synchronize do send_command("LSUB", refname, mailbox) return @responses.delete("LSUB") end end
Sends a MOVE command to move the specified message(s) to the end of the specified destination mailbox
. The set
parameter is a number, an array of numbers, or a Range object. The number is a message sequence number. The IMAP
MOVE extension is described in [RFC-6851].
# File net/imap.rb, line 867 def move(set, mailbox) copy_internal("MOVE", set, mailbox) end
Sends a NOOP command to the server. It does nothing.
# File net/imap.rb, line 367 def noop send_command("NOOP") end
Removes the response handler.
# File net/imap.rb, line 912 def remove_response_handler(handler) @response_handlers.delete(handler) end
Sends a RENAME command to change the name of the mailbox
to newname
.
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if a mailbox with the name mailbox
cannot be renamed to newname
for whatever reason; for instance, because mailbox
does not exist, or because there is already a mailbox with the name newname
.
# File net/imap.rb, line 500 def rename(mailbox, newname) send_command("RENAME", mailbox, newname) end
Sends a SEARCH command to search the mailbox for messages that match the given searching criteria, and returns message sequence numbers. keys
can either be a string holding the entire search string, or a single-dimension array of search keywords and arguments. The following are some common search criteria; see [IMAP] section 6.4.4 for a full list.
- <message set>
-
a set of message sequence numbers. ‘,’ indicates an interval, ‘:’ indicates a range. For instance, ‘2,10:12,15’ means “2,10,11,12,15”.
- BEFORE <date>
-
messages with an internal date strictly before <date>. The date argument has a format similar to 8-Aug-2002.
- BODY <string>
-
messages that contain <string> within their body.
- CC <string>
-
messages containing <string> in their CC field.
- FROM <string>
-
messages that contain <string> in their FROM field.
- NEW
-
messages with the Recent, but not the Seen, flag set.
- NOT <search-key>
-
negate the following search key.
- OR <search-key> <search-key>
-
“or” two search keys together.
- ON <date>
-
messages with an internal date exactly equal to <date>, which has a format similar to 8-Aug-2002.
- SINCE <date>
-
messages with an internal date on or after <date>.
- SUBJECT <string>
-
messages with <string> in their subject.
- TO <string>
-
messages with <string> in their TO field.
For example:
p imap.search(["SUBJECT", "hello", "NOT", "NEW"]) #=> [1, 6, 7, 8]
# File net/imap.rb, line 773 def search(keys, charset = nil) return search_internal("SEARCH", keys, charset) end
Sends a SELECT command to select a mailbox
so that messages in the mailbox
can be accessed.
After you have selected a mailbox, you may retrieve the number of items in that mailbox from @responses[-1], and the number of recent messages from @responses[-1]. Note that these values can change if new messages arrive during a session; see add_response_handler()
for a way of detecting this event.
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if the mailbox does not exist or is for some reason non-selectable.
# File net/imap.rb, line 456 def select(mailbox) synchronize do @responses.clear send_command("SELECT", mailbox) end end
Sends the SETACL command along with mailbox
, user
and the rights
that user is to have on that mailbox. If rights
is nil, then that user will be stripped of any rights to that mailbox. The IMAP
ACL commands are described in [RFC-2086].
# File net/imap.rb, line 628 def setacl(mailbox, user, rights) if rights.nil? send_command("SETACL", mailbox, user, "") else send_command("SETACL", mailbox, user, rights) end end
Sends a SETQUOTA command along with the specified mailbox
and quota
. If quota
is nil, then quota
will be unset for that mailbox. Typically one needs to be logged in as a server admin for this to work. The IMAP
quota commands are described in [RFC-2087].
# File net/imap.rb, line 615 def setquota(mailbox, quota) if quota.nil? data = '()' else data = '(STORAGE ' + quota.to_s + ')' end send_command("SETQUOTA", mailbox, RawData.new(data)) end
Sends a SORT command to sort messages in the mailbox. Returns an array of message sequence numbers. For example:
p imap.sort(["FROM"], ["ALL"], "US-ASCII") #=> [1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 4, 9] p imap.sort(["DATE"], ["SUBJECT", "hello"], "US-ASCII") #=> [6, 7, 8, 1]
See [SORT-THREAD-EXT] for more details.
# File net/imap.rb, line 885 def sort(sort_keys, search_keys, charset) return sort_internal("SORT", sort_keys, search_keys, charset) end
Sends a STARTTLS command to start TLS session.
# File net/imap.rb, line 378 def starttls(options = {}, verify = true) send_command("STARTTLS") do |resp| if resp.kind_of?(TaggedResponse) && resp.name == "OK" begin # for backward compatibility certs = options.to_str options = create_ssl_params(certs, verify) rescue NoMethodError end start_tls_session(options) end end end
Sends a STATUS command, and returns the status of the indicated mailbox
. attr
is a list of one or more attributes whose statuses are to be requested. Supported attributes include:
MESSAGES:: the number of messages in the mailbox. RECENT:: the number of recent messages in the mailbox. UNSEEN:: the number of unseen messages in the mailbox.
The return value is a hash of attributes. For example:
p imap.status("inbox", ["MESSAGES", "RECENT"]) #=> {"RECENT"=>0, "MESSAGES"=>44}
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if status values for mailbox
cannot be returned; for instance, because it does not exist.
# File net/imap.rb, line 674 def status(mailbox, attr) synchronize do send_command("STATUS", mailbox, attr) return @responses.delete("STATUS")[-1].attr end end
Sends a STORE command to alter data associated with messages in the mailbox, in particular their flags. The set
parameter is a number, an array of numbers, or a Range object. Each number is a message sequence number. attr
is the name of a data item to store: ‘FLAGS’ will replace the message’s flag list with the provided one, ‘+FLAGS’ will add the provided flags, and ‘-FLAGS’ will remove them. flags
is a list of flags.
The return value is an array of Net::IMAP::FetchData
. For example:
p imap.store(6..8, "+FLAGS", [:Deleted]) #=> [#<Net::IMAP::FetchData seqno=6, attr={"FLAGS"=>[:Seen, :Deleted]}>, \\ #<Net::IMAP::FetchData seqno=7, attr={"FLAGS"=>[:Seen, :Deleted]}>, \\ #<Net::IMAP::FetchData seqno=8, attr={"FLAGS"=>[:Seen, :Deleted]}>]
# File net/imap.rb, line 840 def store(set, attr, flags) return store_internal("STORE", set, attr, flags) end
Sends a SUBSCRIBE command to add the specified mailbox
name to the server’s set of “active” or “subscribed” mailboxes as returned by lsub()
.
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if mailbox
cannot be subscribed to; for instance, because it does not exist.
# File net/imap.rb, line 510 def subscribe(mailbox) send_command("SUBSCRIBE", mailbox) end
Similar to search()
, but returns message sequence numbers in threaded format, as a Net::IMAP::ThreadMember
tree. The supported algorithms are:
- ORDEREDSUBJECT
-
split into single-level threads according to subject, ordered by date.
- REFERENCES
-
split into threads by parent/child relationships determined by which message is a reply to which.
Unlike search()
, charset
is a required argument. US-ASCII and UTF-8 are sample values.
See [SORT-THREAD-EXT] for more details.
# File net/imap.rb, line 929 def thread(algorithm, search_keys, charset) return thread_internal("THREAD", algorithm, search_keys, charset) end
Similar to copy()
, but set
contains unique identifiers.
# File net/imap.rb, line 858 def uid_copy(set, mailbox) copy_internal("UID COPY", set, mailbox) end
Similar to fetch()
, but set
contains unique identifiers.
# File net/imap.rb, line 822 def uid_fetch(set, attr, mod = nil) return fetch_internal("UID FETCH", set, attr, mod) end
Similar to move()
, but set
contains unique identifiers.
# File net/imap.rb, line 872 def uid_move(set, mailbox) copy_internal("UID MOVE", set, mailbox) end
Similar to search()
, but returns unique identifiers.
# File net/imap.rb, line 778 def uid_search(keys, charset = nil) return search_internal("UID SEARCH", keys, charset) end
Similar to sort()
, but returns an array of unique identifiers.
# File net/imap.rb, line 890 def uid_sort(sort_keys, search_keys, charset) return sort_internal("UID SORT", sort_keys, search_keys, charset) end
Similar to store()
, but set
contains unique identifiers.
# File net/imap.rb, line 845 def uid_store(set, attr, flags) return store_internal("UID STORE", set, attr, flags) end
Similar to thread()
, but returns unique identifiers instead of message sequence numbers.
# File net/imap.rb, line 935 def uid_thread(algorithm, search_keys, charset) return thread_internal("UID THREAD", algorithm, search_keys, charset) end
Sends a UNSUBSCRIBE command to remove the specified mailbox
name from the server’s set of “active” or “subscribed” mailboxes.
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if mailbox
cannot be unsubscribed from; for instance, because the client is not currently subscribed to it.
# File net/imap.rb, line 520 def unsubscribe(mailbox) send_command("UNSUBSCRIBE", mailbox) end
Sends a XLIST command, and returns a subset of names from the complete set of all names available to the client. refname
provides a context (for instance, a base directory in a directory-based mailbox hierarchy). mailbox
specifies a mailbox or (via wildcards) mailboxes under that context. Two wildcards may be used in mailbox
: ‘*’, which matches all characters including the hierarchy delimiter (for instance, ‘/’ on a UNIX-hosted directory-based mailbox hierarchy); and ‘%’, which matches all characters except the hierarchy delimiter.
If refname
is empty, mailbox
is used directly to determine which mailboxes to match. If mailbox
is empty, the root name of refname
and the hierarchy delimiter are returned.
The XLIST command is like the LIST command except that the flags returned refer to the function of the folder/mailbox, e.g. :Sent
The return value is an array of Net::IMAP::MailboxList
. For example:
imap.create("foo/bar") imap.create("foo/baz") p imap.xlist("", "foo/%") #=> [#<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noselect], delim="/", name="foo/">, \\ #<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noinferiors, :Marked], delim="/", name="foo/bar">, \\ #<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noinferiors], delim="/", name="foo/baz">]
# File net/imap.rb, line 578 def xlist(refname, mailbox) synchronize do send_command("XLIST", refname, mailbox) return @responses.delete("XLIST") end end
