ImapTools

Objective

Use this API to extract the IMAP UID from a message.

Usage

Add the ImapTools API to your add-on. Your manifest.json needs an entry like this:

  "experiment_apis": {
    "ImapTools": {
      "schema": "api/ImapTools/schema.json",
      "parent": {
        "scopes": ["addon_parent"],
        "paths": [["ImapTools"]],
        "script": "api/ImapTools/implementation.js"
      }
    }
  },

The API provides a simple function to get the IMAP UID:

async getImapUID(messageID)

Returns a Promise for the IMAP UID of the message with the WebExtension ID specified in messageID.
