Subject: Javamail problem
In the javamail API, i have a problem
with a method called getContent().
Everything written after this works
EXCEPT getContent() (wich fetches the content of an email)
try
{
// Get the
inbox
Folder inbox =
mailUser.getInbox();
// Get the messages from the
inbox
Message[] msgs =
inbox.getMessages();
// Get the requested
message
Message m =
msgs[msg];
// Show the
date
out.println("Date: " +
m.getSentDate() + "<br>");
// Show the from
addresses.
Address a[] =
m.getFrom();
out.println("From:
" + formatAddresses(a) + "<br>");
// Show the to
addresses
a =
m.getRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO);
out.println("To: " + formatAddresses(a) + "<br>");
// Show the copy
addresses
a =
m.getRecipients(Message.RecipientType.CC);
out.println("Cc: " + formatAddresses(a) + "<br>");
// Show the
subject
String s =
m.getSubject();
if (s == null)
{
s =
"";
}
out.println("Subject:
<b>" + s + "</b><br><hr>");
// Display the
message
Object o =
m.getContent(); // Sometimes getContent() returns a
IOException
// Figure out what kind of
message we have
if
(m.isMimeType("text/plain")) { blah blah blah
...............;
------------------------------- end of
code
Sometimes getContent() returns a IOException. It seems to do
it randomly, i've been working on this for a week, the server is still
connected, the folder, and store (to those familiar with tha API) are not
null, nor is Message m, i just randomly catch an exception !!!
It's weird,
cause i can still get the subject, date and recipients, but not the
content.... Help !
