Phillippe-

If it was for an internal app, I would agree. The problem: this needs to
work in ColdFusion without having to distribute licensed libraries...

There has to be a workaround - surely someone can successfully access emails
via IMAP and JavaMail else why would they support it?

Thanks,

Drew

  Drew,
  can it be because Sun's library is a sample (there's a more appropriate
term
  but I can't remember it)
  implementation and may notsupport all features or not all in all
conditions
  ?
  You may have better luck with a commercial product.

    Actually, I have a question for y'all:

    I am working on something to access IMAP using the JavaMail API. I can
    retrieve all the messages from the server, but for some reason, I get a
    NullPointerException whenever I call on:

    message.getContentType() or message.getContent()  (where message is an
    instance of a javax.mail.Message object)

    It makes no sense, as I can call on message.getSubject() and other
  methods,
    thus the object exists and should for no reason throw a NPE... I have
  tried
    casting the MEssage object to a Part object (getContent() is inherited
  into
    the Message class from the Part class), I have tried using DataHandler
    objects and I'm about at my wits end... (Did I mention this was due last
    Friday...?)

    I have worked with Macromedia tech support on this, but all we
discovered
    was that this is an issue with the sun library (the same error is thrown
    when executed on Tomcat and BEA WebLogic). Of course, this doesn't
change
    that I need this functionality.

    If you would like to see code, let me know. But I assume that others
have
    encountered this problem as I have seen posts in miscellaneous places
  online
    (but no good responses, however...)

    Thanks.
