Hi there!
I am new to imap "Command Line" and trying to write a script doing the following on a dovecot imap server:
- APPEND a message (e.g. to Drafts)
- get the ID to reopen the message for reading
In short: How do i get the ID back from the APPEND command or which command has to be invoked to get the uid of the newly added message?
By ID do you mean message's IMAP UID?
dovecot --version 1.0.15
v1.1+ supports UIDPLUS extension that gives you the UID immediately in the APPEND reply. With v1.0 you'd have to do something ugly like selecting the mailbox and searching for the message based on Message-ID: header or something..
