Can't locate email using "subject"

[seaman1]

gmail.inbox.emails(:subject => 'Email verification request')
returns all inbox emails
PS: not all of my inbox emails have subject 'Email verification request'.

Actually for me, it was a silly mistake. I was using the latest gem '0.3.1', instead of master.

I fixed it by added gem 'ruby-gmail', git: '[email protected]:dcparker/ruby-gmail.git', :ref => 'f8c2651f19' to the Gemfile.

@seaman1 I wonder if you by chance made the same mistake.

solved by setting a filter in gmail for specific subjects and move them into a new label (mailbox)
then set it as following:

gmail.mailbox('newlabelmailbox').emails(:unread)

this will return the mails that arent read and has a specific subject that we already filtered using gmail.
