In mRpostman: An IMAP Client for R

Criterion constructor function to be combined in a custom search statement

Description

Criterion constructor function to be combined in a custom search statement

Usage

since(date_char, negate = FALSE)

Arguments

date_char	A character string with format "DD-Mon-YYYY", e.g. "01-Apr-2019". We opt not to use Date or POSIX* like objects, since IMAP servers use this unusual date format.
negate	If TRUE, negates the search and seeks for "NOT SEARCH CRITERIA". Default is FALSE.

Value

A search string to be used as a request parameter in ImapCon$search() function.

See Also

Other custom search: AND(), ImapCon, OR(), before(), flag(), larger_than(), older_than(), on(), sent_before(), sent_on(), sent_since(), smaller_than(), string(), younger_than()

Examples

## Not run: 
# select folder & search
con$select_folder(name = "INBOX")
# search for messages SINCE "17-Apr-2019" AND SMALLER than 512KB.
res <- con$search(request = AND(since(date_char = "17-Apr-2019"),
                                smaller_than(size = 512000)))
