Robert Burrell Donkin commented on MIME4J-30:
---------------------------------------------
Adding getInputStream(boolean pTransferDecoding) would go against the grain of
the existing API. The output of this method is already controlled (indirectly)
by a state variable and the boolean would only have meaning in one state. I
agree about the polluation with getters and setters: I would inject this
variable upon construction only.

> Currently the mime4j user must be aware of the transfer-encoding header.
> a) This is inconvenient. I can think of no reason, why a user should want the
> encoded data stream.
> b) This blocks MIME4J-27 in the following sense: If a user configures a limit
> on the attachments size,
> then this should most possibly limit the decoded attachments size. But
> Mime4j can only track
> the decoded attachments size, if it is itself responsible for decoding.
