Lack of clear documentation regarding reading messages.

Hello, Im still trying to read a message from within the inbox. I have connected to the server, found the list of messages, but am unsure what method I should be using to actually view the body of the message.

Using: gmail.inbox.emails(:unread, :from => mailaddress).each do |email| email.message Popped the error "undefined method: message" This pops up for .read, .body.. etc Am I doing it wrong?

This form works for me...

gmail = Gmail.new(credentials.username, credentials.password) do |gmail| inbox = gmail.inbox inbox.emails(:unread).each do |email| puts email.body emails.body.parts.each do |part| puts part.decoded end end end

I agree with you about lack of docs.

ruby-gmail wraps TMail, so the missing docs can be found by looking at it: http://tmail.rubyforge.org/rdoc/index.html

@pfarrell did you know how to get the time of the mail. this is my code

messages = ""    
gmail.inbox.emails(:unread).each do |email|
  email.from.each do |info|
    messages += info.name
  end
  messages += email.subject+"\n\n"
end

Thanks for all the tips here and I am going to close this out. If anyone has time to fork and update the README it would be appreciated.
