IMAP error with Kumar scrpit

[c-hering]

When I startup the script with all of the correct info in the right places, I get an IMAP error and I have no idea what from.

Might be because Gmail complains of 'less secure apps' if OAuth2 isn't used for authentication. Try turning 'less secure apps' on for the account: https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps

Ok, I'll try that out

It didn't work, I keep getting this; `get_tagged_response': Invalid arguments supplied to LOGIN. k3mb38185354qke (Net::IMAP::BadResponseError)

This is the node script? I'll look at it.

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'dotenv'
require 'gmail'

Dotenv.load

GMAIL_USERNAME = ENV['[email protected]']
GMAIL_PASSWORD = ENV['xxxxxxxx']

GMAIL = Gmail.connect(GMAIL_USERNAME,GMAIL_PASSWORD)
SCAM_EMAIL = '[email protected]'

DB_NAME_REGEX = /\S+_staging/
KEYWORDS_REGEX = /sorry|help|wrong/i|test

def create_reply(subject)
GMAIL.compose do
to SCAM_EMAIL
subject "RE: #{subject}"
body "No problem. I've fixed it. \n\n Please be careful next time."
end
end

GMAIL.inbox.find(:unread, from: SCAM_EMAIL).each do |email|
if email.body.raw_source[KEYWORDS_REGEX] && (db_name = email.body.raw_source[DB_NAME_REGEX])
# Mark as read, add label and reply
email.read!
email.label('Database fixes')
reply = create_reply(email.subject)
GMAIL.deliver(reply)
end
end

Ah, I see the issue. GMAIL_USERNAME and GMAIL_PASSWORD are set to the corresponding environment variables. So change those lines to:

GMAIL_USERNAME = '[email protected]'
GMAIL_PASSWORD = 'xxx'

and not

GMAIL_USERNAME = ENV['[email protected]']

The latter causes it to look for an env variable called "[email protected]"

Ok, So that fixed the first error, and a couple syntax errors popped up but I fixed those, now it is giving me the same as before but indicating to line 25; GMAIL.inbox.find(:unread, from: SCAM_EMAIL).each do |email|

[kashyapakshay]

I see. I'm not sure why, maybe some one else can help with that. But I'd suggest you check if there are no unread emails from SCAM_EMAIL. 0 unread emails may throw an error.

[c-hering]

Alright, will do. Thanks for all your help so far!

[kashyapakshay]

No problem

Do you think that there could be any problems with the From command? I was looking at commands in IMAP that can cause problems easily and came across the From command.
