Not seeing attachments

[mmcgrath]

Hi -- great work so far -- but I can't see attachments -- here's my program:

require 'rubygems'
require 'gmail'
gmail = Gmail.new('xxxxx', 'xxxxx') do |g|
  unread_count=g.inbox.count(:unread)
  print "There are " + g.inbox.count.to_s + " emails (" + unread_count.to_s + " unread).\n"
  counter=1
  g.inbox.emails(:unread).each do |msg|
  print "#{counter}/#{msg.message.from}/#{msg.message.subject}/#{msg.message.attachments.length.to_s} attachment(s)\n"
    msg.message.save_attachments_to("/home/mmcgrath/mail-puller/output")
    counter+=1
  end
end

There are four unread messages in the Inbox, three of which have attachments -- the script sees them correctly (i.e. Subject, From etc) but in all cases the attachments array is empty. Any thoughts?

FYI -- I downloaded TMail (http://tmail.rubyforge.org/) -- it correctly parses the mime parts from the Gmail::Message.body

Clever work with the TMail idea there. Bonus points for putting two and two together.

Just yesterday I've updated something that may have affected this and released version 0.0.6. Have you given that a try?

If that still doesn't work, are any of those emails safe to share with me? I'd be willing to inspect the MIME parts and find out what is causing the parsing to fail, if it is still failing.

Hi -- I am using 0.0.6 -- I will email you one of the emails that's causing difficulty. Happy Christmas.

Released 0.0.7 with a few code tweaks that should fix the problem.

Still have the same problem with 0.0.7

thekindofme - would you be able to send me a copy of the "Original Message" from gmail's drop-down menu on the right? I don't want sensitive information of course, but just to look at the encoding and where the gem might be parsing incorrectly.
