Ruby Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Transition from MailMan.FetchEmail to MailMan.FetchByUidl

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated FetchEmail method calls with FetchByUidl. Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

mailman = Chilkat::CkMailMan.new()

#  ...
#  ...

uidl = "123"

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  The FetchEmail method is deprecated:

# emailObj is a CkEmail
emailObj = mailman.FetchEmail(uidl)
if (mailman.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false)
    print mailman.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

#  ...
#  ...

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  Do the equivalent using FetchByUidl.
#  Your application creates a new, empty Email object which is passed 
#  in the last argument and filled upon success.

headerOnly = false
#  Irrelevant because we are not downloading headers-only.
numBodyLines = 0

emailOut = Chilkat::CkEmail.new()
success = mailman.FetchByUidl(uidl,headerOnly,numBodyLines,emailOut)
if (success == false)
    print mailman.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end
