uid_copy(set, mailbox) Instance Public methods As for copy(), but set contains unique identifiers.

thread(algorithm, search_keys, charset) Instance Public methods As for 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

subscribe(mailbox) Instance Public methods Sends a SUBSCRIBE command to add the specified mailbox name to the server's set of âactiveâ or âsubscribedâ mailboxes as returned by lsub(). A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError is raised if mailbox cannot be subscribed to, for instance because it does not exist.

store(set, attr, flags) Instance Public methods Sends a STORE command to alter data associated with messages in the mailbox, in particular their flags. The set parameter is a number or 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' means to replace the message's flag list with the provided one; '+FLAGS' means to add the provided flags; and '-FLAGS' means to remove them. flags is a list of flags. T

status(mailbox, attr) Instance Public methods Sends a STATUS command, and returns the status of the indicated mailbox. attr is a list of one or more attributes that we are request the status of. 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"]

starttls(options = {}, verify = true) Instance Public methods Sends a STARTTLS command to start TLS session.

sort(sort_keys, search_keys, charset) Instance Public methods 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.

setquota(mailbox, quota) Instance Public methods 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 server admin for this to work. The IMAP quota commands are described in [RFC-2087].

setacl(mailbox, user, rights) Instance Public methods 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].

select(mailbox) Instance Public methods 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
