Tmail talk - Mar 2008 - Errors migrating to tmail 1.2.1 (from << 0.11)

Hi

I used tmail with much success in a small utility at the enterprise where I
work.
Thanks a lot for this nice library! 

I wrote it more than two years ago. As our server will be migrated I have to
switch
to newer version of ruby and tmail. Almost all my unit tests passed once I did
a few cleanups like
- msgid -> message_id
- from_addresses -> from_addrs

I however failed to create test messages where I before did things like
mail.parts[0] = <some content>

I tried various things but could not figure out the correct way to setup
a multiple part for a test message, where I have
a) a part with some text
b) one or more attachements (e.g. zip files)

I would appreciate if somebody could outline me how to do this.

Best regards and thanks in advance.

Niklaus

You are very welcome

The simple way is just make a new tmail object set it''s body etc and
then add that to the parts array..

Here is an irb transcript of the process:

irb(main):001:0> require ''tmail''
=> true

irb(main):003:0* mail = TMail::Mail.new
=> #<TMail::Mail port=#<TMail::StringPort:id=0x2b8e00>
bodyport=nil>

irb(main):002:0> mail.to = ''mikel at me.com''
=> "mikel at me.com"

irb(main):004:0> part1 = TMail::Mail.new
=> #<TMail::Mail port=#<TMail::StringPort:id=0x2b7ad2>
bodyport=nil>

irb(main):005:0> part1.body = "This is a plain text part"
=> "This is a plain text part"

irb(main):006:0> part1.content_type = ''text/plain''
=> "text/plain"

irb(main):007:0> part1.to_s
=> "Content-Type: text/plain\n\nThis is a plain text part"

irb(main):008:0> mail.parts[0] = part1
=> #<TMail::Mail port=#<TMail::StringPort:id=0x2b7ad2>
bodyport=#<TMail::StringPort:id=0x2b6240>>

irb(main):009:0> puts mail.encoded
To: mikel at me.com
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=mimepart_47f0b415efcf7_1b9fbb8036f


--mimepart_47f0b415efcf7_1b9fbb8036f
Content-Type: text/plain

This is a plain text part
--mimepart_47f0b415efcf7_1b9fbb8036f--
=> nil
