OK, i got the solution.
I pattern matched the link text from the message body.
After grabbing the link text, i can use it to navigate.
So all ok now.
Only thing if someone can help is, i got the email body but as same
time i want to mark that email as "read" instead of "unread", so that
next time when i have another new email, i get content from that new
email and previous all emails are in read state.
Does anyone knows it?
