fetchLast and fetchMessages never return...

[matadan]

Just a thought but I think asking for 100,000 messages might be a problem. Have you tried less?

The first try was exactly the demo code with fetchLast() with 50 messages. It didn't work. Then I tried fetchLast() with 3 messages. Then I changed it to fetchMessages... Always the same problem...

I had a problem which is fixed in version v0.4.1. fetchLast had a bug. See: #44 <#44>

Tested it with 0..10 just to make sure. Same problem.

I updated to 0.4.1 today, that didn't solve the problem...

[matadan]

My issue was fixed with 0.4.1 but it sounds like you have a different issue.

[ikemuc]

I shifted the initialization of postal to the init() method and now it works.

class KanbanManagerPostal {
var configuration: Configuration!

var messages: [FetchResult] = []

init(hostname: String, userName: String, password: String) {
    log.debug("init called...")
    
    configuration = Configuration(hostname: hostname, port: 993, login: userName, password: .plain(password), connectionType: .tls, checkCertificateEnabled: false)
    
    var postal: Postal = Postal(configuration: configuration)
[...]

Now there are only the other questions unanswered ;-)

• How can I debug the IMAP requests?
• Where can I find a documentation of the API?
• Can I manipulate a message, especially add custom headers to a message (or take a message, add custom headers, write it as a new message to the server and delete the old one...)?

@ikemuc To answer your questions:

- How can I debug the IMAP requests?
You can set a closure on a Postal instance to have IMAP logs:

let postal = Postal(configuration: ...)
postal.logger { log in
    print(log)
}

- Where can I find a documentation of the API?

Unfortunately there isn't yet an official documentation of the API but we documented every public functions that you can access through xcode but I agree it's not enough. Everything should be ok to add jazzy or something like that if you want to do it, PR are welcome ! :)

- Can I manipulate a message, especially add custom headers to a message (or take a message, add custom headers, write it as a new message to the server and delete the old one...)?

No, Postal was first designed in first place only for fetching messages, not manipulating them. But I don't think it would be hard to add such features since libetpan propose an API for that.

Your issue seems fixed so I close it. If you want new features, please submit an issue and we'll figure out how to implement them as quickly as possible 👍
