Retrieving new email messages

Upon establishing a connection to an IMAP server you can retrieve any new email messages in the account mailbox by invoking the Imap#getNewMessages method. New messages are messages received since the last time the account was accessed. Any new messages found will be returned as a java.util.Enumeration of type com.jscape.inet.email.EmailMessage

Example

import com.jscape.inet.imap.*;

import com.jscape.inet.email.*;

// establish connection

imap.connect();

// get messages in mailbox

Enumeration e = imap.getNewMessages();

// loop thru all messages in mailbox

while(e.hasMoreElements()) {

EmailMessage message = (EmailMessage)e.nextElement();

// print out subject

System.out.println(message.getSubject());

}
