$imap->select($folder) or die "Could not select: [EMAIL PROTECTED]"; # connect to the folder 'INBOX/Parent/child'
# get a count of the messages that are present at the time the script is run my $msgcount = $imap->message_count($folder);
From the documentation re 'message_count':
"Note that RFC2683 contains warnings about the use of the IMAP STATUS command (and thus the status method and therefore the message_count method) against the currenlty selected folder."
I don't quite know what that means, but I would try doing: my $msgcount = $imap->message_count($folder);
*before* doing: $imap->select($folder) or die "Could not select: [EMAIL PROTECTED]";
I don't use this module ... so I can't test ... hth.
Cheers, Rob
