fluentd 1 Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Anyone have any tips on how to recognize a certain email in gmail to confirm an account? The issue I am having is google isnt letting me drag the email that I want to confirm into ubot and is just navigating into the email itself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnB 255 Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 You will be able to do this automatically on the next update (when email commands support POP3 with SSL). I would hang tight because this is already a function of the email commands and way easier than anything else you can code yourself. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fluentd 1 Posted December 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Ok well the bot I am trying to create will take my gmail info, create a wordpress account, confirm, login to wordpress and post information on the account. What do you suggest I do with the bot in the mean time? How long until the next update? days, weeks? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnB 255 Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Well you can still do now...just get the title of the email it sends and have the bot click on it. you can then either click the confirmation link or scrape it and navigate to it. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fluentd 1 Posted December 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Sorry but can you help me with how I do that. I'm still very new to ubot processes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Praney Behl 314 Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 I think John meant it could be done by coding a browser based email verification script. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JohnB 255 Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Right. you'll first want to add some code to log in to Google, and click on the mail link (to get you into the email). So you will use a navigate command, fill two input fields (email and password), click the login button and then click the mail link. Let us know when you've Made it that far, or if you need help with any of that. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have my gmail account set up and bot programmed to log me in. Now, finding specific text on the page will help me out. http://content.screencast.com/users/koconnor00/folders/Jing/media/aa48f5b0-727b-4905-820e-1b529c256d05/2011-12-17_1052.png This is the layout of my gmail. What I want is for the bot to find the text "Woohoo! You've read all the messages in your inbox." and then it will log out (I have the logout routine sorted). I tried scrape attribute but dont know what attribute to select. <div class="qd">Woohoo! You've read all the messages in your inbox.</div> If there is a new email in that account, the Woohoo! wont be there so that's how I am looking for new mail. Thanks in advance for the help, BNB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Praney Behl 314 Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 You can now do it using the email commands with the latest update adding gmail ssl support. Hope it helps. Praney Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fluentd 1 Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 I am trying to connect to gmail mail server using ssl and have my login/pass along with server which is imap.gmail.com and port 993 are these the correct settings to use? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fluentd 1 Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Also tried pop.gmail.com port 995.. is ubot suppose to give me any kind of info in debugger that it connected successfully? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnB 255 Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Go into your settings and make sure it is pop enabled...it's imap enabled by default. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fluentd 1 Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 So would it be better to use imap to connect? These are going to be bot created accounts and dont want to have to log into everyone and enable this feature. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnB 255 Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 No you have to change your gmail settings to pop enabled or it won't work in ubot. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fluentd 1 Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Is this option more efficient then just using the click option and verifying a link that way? I was able to get it verified pretty easily. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnB 255 Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 I'm not sure what you are referring to. I am talking about being able to use the email commands with a gmail account. You cannot connect to the gmail server if you do not enable pop in your gmail account settings (you have to log in to your gmail account, go into the settings and enable pop).
