The RMail::StreamParser is a low level message parsing API. It is useful when you are interested in serially examining all message content but are not interested in a full object representation of the object. See StreamParser.parse.

Methods

parse

Public Class methods

parse(input, handler)

Parse a message from an input source. This method returns nothing. Instead, the supplied handler is expected to implement the same methods as RMail::StreamHandler. The message structure can be inferred from the methods called on the handler. The input can be any Ruby IO source or a String.

This is a low level parsing API. For a message parser that returns an RMail::Message object, see the RMail::Parser class. RMail::Parser is implemented using RMail::StreamParser.
