Ali,

From the docs at CPAN, I don't even see a method called addMessage (maybe I missed it). The syntax for moving a message is

$obj->moveMessage([FOLDER|FOLDERNAME,] MESSAGES, OPTIONS)
[download]

which actually moves the message and marks it for deletion, so it is deleted from the source folder when the folder is closed.

Hope this helps.

Also, I've had mixed success with all the Mail-Box modules (otoh, I was working with Exchange server, which might have had its own flavor of voodooo). I read a while back on Perl.com about some new mail handling modules that Simon Cozens had started (because he too had mixed success with the existing Mail modules) which were supposed to be better. If your life depends on the above script, you would be well advised to utilize a lot of error-checking and success-failure checking, or use more reliable modules.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
