Accessing MAPI in Ruby

by Asim Jalis

William Sobel provides this brief example on how to access MAPI
from Ruby:

# Open a MAPI session
session = WIN32OLE.new('Mapi.session')
session.logon('_Your Account Name_')

# Get the INBOX
messages = session.inbox.messages
messages.each do |m|
	m.subject = m.subject.sub(/\[ruby-talk:[0-9]+\] /o, '')
	m.update
end
