Does anyone has some experience using Mail::IMAPClient to manage an IMAP mailbox? I created the following code snippit to delete all messages on an IMAP server that have been viewed. The messages appear to be deleted (Netscape Messenger and Outlook don't see them) but I eventually hit the quota ceiling. It's like the messages are just hidden. Any ideas? Thanks...AvignonHermit
use Mail::IMAPClient; #Now delete all messages that we now have a copy of (the messages have + been seen) print "\nRemoving viewed messages...\n"; my $imap = Mail::IMAPClient->new( Server => "XXXXXXX", User => "XXXXXX", Password => "XXXXXX", Port => "143", Debug => "0", Uid => 1, Clear => '1', ) || die ("Could not connect to server.\n"); $imap->select('inbox') || die ("Could not select INBOX\n"); my @toBeDeleted=$imap->seen(); my $numDeleted=$imap->delete_message(@toBeDeleted) || die ("Error remo +ving messages\n"); print "Deleted $numDeleted messages..."; $imap->expunge; $imap->close;
