If a leaf part's body content is omitted, return the encoded length and transfer encoding in --format=json output. This information may be used by the consumer, e.g. to decide whether to download a large attachment over a slow link.
Returning the _encoded_ content length is more efficient than returning the _decoded_ content length. Returning the transfer encoding allows the consumer to estimate the decoded content length. --- devel/schemata | 9 ++++++++- notmuch-show.c | 14 ++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 22 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/devel/schemata b/devel/schemata index 9cb25f5..094b9a5 100644 --- a/devel/schemata +++ b/devel/schemata @@ -69,7 +69,14 @@ part = { # A leaf part's body content is optional, but may be included if # it can be correctly encoded as a string.
