Fetch command is not very efficient
-----------------------------------

                 Key: JAMES-808
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-808
             Project: James
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: IMAPServer
    Affects Versions: Trunk
            Reporter: Zsombor Gegesy
             Fix For: Trunk


Currently the implementation of the FETCH command is not very efficient. For 
example to retrieve one mail the following conversions will happens:
 1, the backend creates a MimeMessage from a file/database blob/thin air/etc
 2, the frontend converts into a byte array, with correct CRLF line endings. (I 
don't get, why it's needed, every incoming MimeMessage is already in this 
format, isn't it ?)
 3, the frontend appends it into a StringBuffer in the FetchCommand class
 4, after some String manipulation it gets sent over an InternetPrintWriter 
which checks also that all line endings in correct style.

 I'm not sure that the whole thing is absolutly necessary. There is two other 
problem with the current code : 
 1, it doesn't calculate the correct MessageResult flags, so the backend cant 
optimize out the unnecessary things.
 2,  It doesn't parse the BODY[]<0.1024> style commands.
