Re: [Jwebmail-devel] IMAP folders with cyrus

[Brett F. <br...@fo...>]

Ok I've looked at the code and at the JavaMail API. Mind you, I've never=20
used the JavaMail API so I'm no expert! Any ideas?

Currently on connect the future is fixed with:
Folder f=3Dst.getDefaultFolder();

Which is defined as:
*javax.mail.Store*
public abstract Folder <../../javax/mail/Folder.html>=20
*getDefaultFolder*() throws MessagingException=20
<../../javax/mail/MessagingException.html>
Returns a Folder object that represents the 'root' of the default=20
namespace presented to the user by the Store.

Looking at the java documentation I see three(!) other functions that=20
should probably be used in place of getDefaultFolder. (So the code in=20
JWebMail for "searching" folders is redundant? and broken? Why implement=20
something already provided by the API? It also implies that it is=20
impossible to access the shared mailboxes unless it's the default=20
namespace.)

*javax.mail.Store*
public Folder <../../javax/mail/Folder.html>[] *getPersonalNamespaces*()=20
throws MessagingException <../../javax/mail/MessagingException.html>
Return a set of folders representing the /personal/ namespaces for the=20
current user. A personal namespace is a set of names that is considered=20
within the personal scope of the authenticated user. Typically, only the=20
authenticated user has access to mail folders in their personal=20
namespace. If an INBOX exists for a user, it must appear within the=20
user's personal namespace. In the typical case, there should be only one=20
personal namespace for each user in each Store.

public Folder <../../javax/mail/Folder.html>[]=20
*getUserNamespaces*(java.lang.String user) throws MessagingException=20
<../../javax/mail/MessagingException.html>
Return a set of folders representing the namespaces for |user|. The=20
namespaces returned represent the personal namespaces for the user. To=20
access mail folders in the other user's namespace, the currently=20
authenticated user must be explicitly granted access rights. For=20
example, it is common for a manager to grant to their secretary access=20
rights to their mail folders.

public Folder <../../javax/mail/Folder.html>[] *getSharedNamespaces*()=20
throws MessagingException <../../javax/mail/MessagingException.html>
Return a set of folders representing the /shared/ namespaces. A shared=20
namespace is a namespace that consists of mail folders that are intended=20
to be shared amongst users and do not exist within a user's personal=20
namespace.
