DESCRIPTION
This input type will read a IMAP mailbox and process each message through the input template engine. If it finds a match, the results of the match are sent to one or more outputs, depending on the group configuration.
See Mail::IMAPClient for a list of the ConnOpts section parameters.
The ParsedFolder
option is special. If set, it will move all parsed messages to that folder. If not, it will rely on the Unread flag to figure out which messages have been parsed or not parsed.
OUTPUTS
Text
Full text of the raw message, including headers. All CRs are stripped.
Preparsed Hash
{
# Header pairs, as per Email::Simple::Header
Email::Simple->new($msg)->header_obj->header_pairs,
# decoded via Email::MIME->new($msg)
# $pmsg->body_str, or body_str of the first text/plain part (if it croaks), or $pmsg->body_raw
# (all \r are stripped)
BODY => $str,
}
CAVEATS
You are responsible for setting up any archiving/deletion protocols for the mailbox, as this module will save everything (and potentially fill up the box).
The raw message isn't kept for the Munger. If you really need it, you can implement an input RE template of (?<RAWMSG>[\s\S]+)
, and parse out the email message yourself.
This class is persistent, keeping the Mail::IMAPClient object until shutdown. However, it will still disconnect on close.
