I'm trying to retrieve messages by sorted by date, using the JavaMail API. Here
is my code:
try (Store store = connectToMessageStore(username, password);
IMAPFolder emailFolder = (IMAPFolder)store.getFolder("INBOX")) {
emailFolder.open(Folder.READ_ONLY);
messageCount = emailFolder.getMessageCount();
Message[] messages = emailFolder.getSortedMessages(new SortTerm[]
{SortTerm.DATE}); //THIS IS THE LINE THAT IS FAILING
messageList = getMessageConverter().toMessageSummary(messages);
} catch (MessagingException e) {
LOGGER.error(ERROR_READING_EMAIL_MESSAGES, e.getMessage());
throw new MessagingServiceException(e);
}
This is the error in my logs:
"Servlet.service() for servlet [dispatcherServlet] in context with path []
threw exception [Request processing failed; nested exception is
aero.sita.ir.communicator.messaging.MessagingServiceException:
javax.mail.MessagingException: SORT not supported;\n nested exception
is:\n\tcom.sun.mail.iap.BadCommandException: SORT not supported] with root
cause"
My intention would be to page the results after sorting.
Best Regards,
Sean

Could you tell us what you are trying to achieve and how? Do you have some code
snippet to show us maybe?

Well, this kind of legal footer has no place on a mailing list, could you
configure your mailer agent to avoid sending that as it's irrelevant in that
context?
