Net::POP3#delete_all

delete_all() { |message| ... }

# File tmp/rubies/ruby-3.0.5/lib/net/pop.rb, line 687
def delete_all # :yield: message
  mails().each do |m|
    yield m if block_given?
    m.delete unless m.deleted?
  end
end

Deletes all messages on the server.

If called with a block, yields each message in turn before deleting it.

Example

n = 1
pop.delete_all do |m|
  File.open("inbox/#{n}") do |f|
    f.write m.pop
  end
  n += 1
end

This method raises a POPError if an error occurs.
