NAME

FS::acct_snarf - Object methods for acct_snarf records

SYNOPSIS

 use FS::acct_snarf;

 $record = new FS::acct_snarf \%hash;
 $record = new FS::acct_snarf { 'column' => 'value' };

 $error = $record->insert;

 $error = $new_record->replace($old_record);

 $error = $record->delete;

 $error = $record->check;

DESCRIPTION

An FS::svc_acct object represents an external mail account, typically for download of mail. FS::acct_snarf inherits from FS::Record. The following fields are currently supported:

snarfnum - primary key; svcnum - Account (see FS::svc_acct); machine - external machine to download mail from; protocol - protocol (pop3, imap, etc.); username - external login username; _password - external login password

METHODS

new HASHREF

Creates a new record. To add the record to the database, see "insert".

Note that this stores the hash reference, not a distinct copy of the hash it points to. You can ask the object for a copy with the hash method.

insert

Adds this record to the database. If there is an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false.

delete

Delete this record from the database.

replace OLD_RECORD

Replaces the OLD_RECORD with this one in the database. If there is an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false.

check

Checks all fields to make sure this is a valid external mail account. If there is an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false. Called by the insert and replace methods.
