class method

Net::POP3.foreach

foreach(address, port = nil, account = nil, password = nil, isapop = false) { |message| ... }

# File tmp/rubies/ruby-3.0.5/lib/net/pop.rb, line 262
def POP3.foreach(address, port = nil,
                 account = nil, password = nil,
                 isapop = false, &block)  # :yields: message
  start(address, port, account, password, isapop) {|pop|
    pop.each_mail(&block)
  }
end

Starts a POP3 session and iterates over each POPMail object, yielding it to the block. This method is equivalent to:

Example

Net::POP3.start(address, port, account, password) do |pop|
  pop.each_mail do |m|
    yield m
  end
end

This method raises a POPAuthenticationError if authentication fails.

Example

Net::POP3.foreach('pop.example.com', 110,
                  'YourAccount', 'YourPassword') do |m|
  file.write m.pop
  m.delete if $DELETE
end
