Hey Bret, it's been a long time!
I found a couple of different approaches to this. I'm leaning towards
Tmail (http://tmail.rubyforge.org/), but I haven't spent too much time
on this. It appears that you can send and read emails.
I also noticed that I can also use 'net/smtp' to send emails. I'm not
sure how to read them, though. Here's an example:
####################
require 'watir'
require 'net/smtp'
# Net::SMTP.start('BVTEXS01').send_message(mail.to_s, frommail,
tomail, ccmail)
Net::SMTP.start('email server name') do |smtp|
smtp.send_message message, '[email protected]',
'[email protected]'
end
