I wonder if there's a standard way for retreive folders size from the client side ?
The protocol does not have a command for that, but the client could get the size of each message and add them. Many clients actually cache a local copy of the mailbox, and do their read and write from that, synching changes to the server. It's like they're always on offline mode to some extent. If a client does this, it can figure out mailbox size locally without asking the server. I believe Outlook is one of these.
