Flowdock
new(host, port_or_options = {}, usessl = false, certs = nil, verify = true) public

Creates a new Net::IMAP object and connects it to the specified host.

options is an option hash, each key of which is a symbol.

The available options are:

port

port number (default value is 143 for imap, or 993 for imaps)

ssl

if options[:ssl] is true, then an attempt will be made to use SSL (now TLS) to connect to the server. For this to work OpenSSL [OSSL] and the Ruby OpenSSL [RSSL] extensions need to be installed. if options[:ssl] is a hash, it’s passed to OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext#set_params as parameters.

The most common errors are:

Errno::ECONNREFUSED

connection refused by host or an intervening firewall.

Errno::ETIMEDOUT

connection timed out (possibly due to packets being dropped by an intervening firewall).

Errno::ENETUNREACH

there is no route to that network.

SocketError

hostname not known or other socket error.

Net::IMAP::ByeResponseError

we connected to the host, but they immediately said goodbye to us.
