Niklas Therning commented on MIME4J-6:
--------------------------------------
The idea is to make the Message class and friends be able to do this so the
user won't have to. Message uses the streaming parser internally to build the
message tree. IIRC the streaming parser does some look-ahead when searching for
boundaries etc. This means that when your callback in your ContentHandler is
called you cannot assume that the current file position in the underlying
stream corresponds to the start of the body part. Mime4j doesn't currently
provide a means to determine the actually start of a body part in the
underlying stream. At least that has to be supported by Mime4j. When that has
been done I don't think it would be very hard to extend Message and friends to
be able to load parts as they are requested.
