sqmail query -f json -s -H 'imap.fastmail.com' -u '[email protected]' -P "pAsSwOrD1!" -q "SELECT uid,from_,to_,subject FROM emails WHERE mailbox = 'INBOX' LIMIT 10"Get all emails from the "INBOX" folder with an arbitrary header named "X-My-Header" containing "foo" in the value
Note: For some reason, some IMAP servers hang when you try to query for an arbitrary header.
sqmail query -f json -s -H 'imap.fastmail.com' -u '[email protected]' -P "pAsSwOrD1!" -q "SELECT uid,from_,to_,subject FROM emails WHERE mailbox = 'INBOX' AND headers = ('X-My-Header', 'foo')"Get all emails from the "Special Emails" folder containing "GitHub" in the subject, and save the results to a CSV file
sqmail query -f csv -s -o emails.csv -H 'imap.fastmail.com' -u '[email protected]' -P "pAsSwOrD1!" -q "SELECT uid,from_,to_,subject FROM emails WHERE mailbox = 'Special Emails' AND subject LIKE 'GitHub'"Due to the way IMAP search works, both the = and LIKE operators are identical.
They are case-insensitive and perform a substring match (aka "contains").
When using csv or json as the output format, messages are streamed as they are received from the
server.
When using table, html, or markdown as the output format, messages are buffered in memory and
then pretty-printed.
Currently, write operations aren't supported via SQL (e.g. INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE).
That said, you can still use the sqmail package to perform write operations in Go by using the
functions available under the github.com/papirocloud/sqmail/imap package.
Write operations via SQL will be supported in the future.
