references( default = nil ) — TMail::Mail

references( default = nil )

Returns the references of this email (prior messages relating to this message) as an array of message ID strings. Useful when you are trying to thread an email.

If the references field does not exist, returns nil by default or you can pass in as the parameter for what you want the default value to be.

Example:

mail = TMail::Mail.new
mail.references #=> nil
mail.references([]) #=> []
mail = TMail::Mail.load("../test/fixtures/raw_email_reply")
mail.references #=> ["<473FF3B8.9020707@xxx.org>", "<348F04F142D69C21-291E56D292BC@xxxx.net>"]
