Copy e-mails from IMAP to local folder

[KARR]

All,

Does anyone know how in Outlook Express v6 how to copy e-mails in an IMAP account to the local folders through a script or automated application?

The IMAP account has a 31 day retention period, and anything older than that would get deleted.

Thanks,
Rob

If you Google "Ruby email", you'll get an article on scripting Outlook Express (in Ruby of course). It looks dead simple and you can translate it into your chosen language. This isn't from within Outlook. It calls Outlook as an object and tells it to fetch your mail.
