How can watch mails received in SPAM box ?

[johnpaulcm]

const imap = {
user: "yourimapuser",
password: "yourimappassword",
host: "imap.host.com",
port: 993, // imap port
tls: true,// use secure connection
tlsOptions: { rejectUnauthorized: false }
box:['INBOX','SPAM'] // is it correct ?
};

Hi. Your concept is interesting and this interface of box could be treated as feature request. I had similar problem and solved by creating two imap objects. I pasting fragment of my code:

// i defining template of connection to avoid code duplication
const imap = {
    user: Meteor.settings.imap.user,
    password: Meteor.settings.imap.password,
    host: "imap.gmail.com",
    port: 993, // imap port
    tls: true,// use secure connection
    tlsOptions: { rejectUnauthorized: false }
};

// not single `n` but `ns` because of many notifier, both have all properties of template 
// but second has changed box option 
const ns = [imap, Object.assign({}, imap, {box: 'Spam'})].map(config => notifier(config));

// then I creating typical listener for all notifiers
ns.forEach(n => {
    n.on('mail', async (mail) => {
       ... 
   })
   ...
})

That's what I've been doing, just create more instances. It would be neat if u could specify multiple boxes.
This is my code:

function startMailMonitor() {
    if (!Array.isArray(config.credentials.email)) config.credentials.email = [config.credentials.email];
    config.credentials.email.forEach((m, i) => setupMail(m, i === 0));
}

function setupMail(m, global) {
    const hosts = {
        "windowslive": `imap-mail.outlook.com`,
        "hotmail": `imap-mail.outlook.com`,
        "live": `imap-mail.outlook.com`,
        "outlook": `imap-mail.outlook.com`,
        "gmail": `imap.gmail.com`
    };

    const host = m.user.split(`@`)[1].split(`.`)[0];
    const boxes = [`INBOX`];
    if (host === `gmail`) {
        boxes.push(`[Gmail]/Spam`);
    } else {
        boxes.push(`JUNK`);
    }

    const sincedate = new Date(Date.now() - 900000); // 15 minutes ago
    const config = Object.assign(m, {
        "host": hosts[host],
        "port": 993,
        "tls": true,
        "tlsOptions": {
            "rejectUnauthorized": false
        },
        "markSeen": false,
        "search": [`UNSEEN`, [`SINCE`, sincedate.toISOString()]]
    });
    boxes.forEach((mailbox) => connectToMailBox(mailbox, config, global));
}

function connectToMailBox(mailbox, config, global) {
    config.box = mailbox;
    const n = MailNotifier(config);
    const receivedMailError = (error) => {
        Logger.error(`${config.user} reported an error: ${error.message || error}`);
        retryOnError(() => connectToMailBox(mailbox, config));
    };
    const connectedToMail = () => {
        Logger.info(`Connected to ${config.user}/${config.box} and listening for new mail`);
    };
    n.on(`connected`, connectedToMail);
    n.on(`end`, () => connectToMailBox(mailbox, config));
    n.on(`error`, receivedMailError);
    n.on(`mail`, receivedMail);
    if (global) email = n;
    n.start();
}

function receivedMail(mail) {
        Logger.info(`New e-mail (${mail.subject}), from ${mail.from[0].address}, to ${mail.to[0].address}`);
        steamkeys.forEach(queueSteamKey);
}
