would provide me the type of message (Plain, Html, etc) part 0 is.
But I don't get what I'm 'doing'. What words would describe the above
commands?
I know that message will be an array of FetchData objects.
Just looking for some help on how to read the documentation.
The current question I'm trying to answer is:
In order to get the plain text portion of a multipart message, am I
really going to have to call uid_fetch (or fetch), twice? Once to get
the BODYSTRUCTURE, then again to actually get at the text?
Thanks for that....the thing is, its not very clear to me, by reading
the docs provided, how those message objects are "organized".
How does one use the documentation provided, along with some
guesswork, about what the different objects "look" like?
Maybe this is just too broad of a question and as I run into issues, I
should just ask specific questions about how to solve a specific
problem....
This is where I see the adopt-a-newbie might come in handy. I don't
want to be told how to do it, just what things I should be considering
as I read through the docs. Experience will fill in the gaps...it
would be nice if it included experience of others.

You'll have to pass the message through a library like TMail to do
further processing on the body.

Sends a FETCH command to retrieve data associated with a message
in the mailbox. The set parameter is a number or an array of
numbers or a Range object. The number is a message sequence
number. attr is a list of attributes to fetch; see the
documentation for Net::IMAP::FetchData for a list of valid
attributes. The return value is an array of Net::IMAP::FetchData.
For example:
p imap.fetch(6..8, "UID")
#=> [#<Net::IMAP::FetchData seqno=6, attr={"UID"=>98}>, \
#<Net::IMAP::FetchData seqno=7, attr={"UID"=>99}>, \
#<Net::IMAP::FetchData seqno=8, attr={"UID"=>100}>]
p imap.fetch(6, "BODY[HEADER.FIELDS (SUBJECT)]")
#=> [#<Net::IMAP::FetchData seqno=6, attr={"BODY[HEADER.FIELDS (SUBJECT)]"=>"Subject: test\r\n\r\n"}>]
data = imap.uid_fetch(98, ["RFC822.SIZE", "INTERNALDATE"])[0]
p data.seqno
#=> 6
p data.attr["RFC822.SIZE"]
#=> 611
p data.attr["INTERNALDATE"]
#=> "12-Oct-2000 22:40:59 +0900"
p data.attr["UID"]
#=> 98

Well, the ri has been immensely helpful to me in writing IMAPCleanse.
