Track some emails with gmail gem

I'm using gmail gem to send emails and I need track these emails. How can I do this?

I'm trying search the email with the message_id, but it bring all emails from my inbox and I want just the responses of a specific email.

Here is my actual code:

*save email with the message_id*

mail = gmail.deliver(email开发者_JS百科)
Email.create(:message_id => mail.message_id, :from => user.email,
  :to => annotation.to, :body => annotation.content, :title => annotation.title,
  :annotation => annotation, :user => user)

*search the mails with message_id*

messages = gmail.inbox.mails(:message_id => email.message_id)

you can take Net::IMAP a look.

uid =  gmail.conn.uid_search(["HEADER", "Message-ID", "<324820.440351247482145930.JavaMail.coremail@bj163app31.163.com>"])[0]
#=> 103
message = Gmail::Message.new(gmail.inbox, uid)
#=>  #<Gmail::Message0x12a72e798 mailbox=INBOX uid=103> 
message.subject
#=> "hello world"
message.message_id
#=> "<324820.440351247482145930.JavaMail.coremail@bj163app31.163.com>"

have not find a method can search by message_id.via this way you can get a specific email.

Using the standard gmail gem, this seems to work quite well

messages = gmail.inbox.mails(:query => ['HEADER', 'Message-ID', email.message_id])

I was able to do this using this Gmail Gem (not sure if that's the same gem you're using).

The Message ID header is part of the email object that is generated. It is then searchable using rfc822msgid (described in Gmail's Advanced Search help page).

Here's an example:

def gmail_connect
  Gmail.connect(email_address, password)
end

def send_email
  gmail = gmail_connect
  email = gmail.compose do
    to recipient@mail.internet
    subject 'Hello'
    content_type 'text/html; charset=UTF-8'
    body 'Hello, World'
  end

  gmail.deliver(email)
  gmail.logout
  email.message_id
end

def verify_sent_email(id)
  gmail = gmail_connect
  found = gmail.mailbox('sent').find(rfc822msgid: id).count
  gmail.logout
  ( found > 0 ) ? true : false
end

id = send_email
verify_sent_email(id)
