Fetching emails from an IMAP server Issue

Added by Cristiano Mombello almost 10 years ago

Hi there,
I've been asked to configure Redmine to allow tasks creation from mails sent by users. I've read the guide at the following link:
[[http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineReceivingEmails#Fetching-emails-from-an-IMAP-server]]

As you asked I let you the following informations:

ruby -v
ruby 2.1.5p273 (2014-11-13) [x86_64-linux-gnu]

rails --version
Rails 4.2.6

OS:
Windows 10 Pro (no cygwin)

Ruby-aware server used:
Webrick

What I guess I have understood up to now, is that I have to define a task (.rake file) in lib/tasks.
The first problem is that I don't know what to write inside this file (never wrote a rake task).

After having done it I want to create a crontab, and here is my second problem: where must I put it?

As you can realize by reading my post I am not really skilled, so I may have expressed my issues in a bad way: I am sorry for that.

I am sorry for my poor english too.

Thank you in advance anyway.

P.s. I have found a file at the following link:
[[https://svn.redmine.org/redmine/trunk/lib/tasks/email.rake]]

could I use it for my purpose?
