Class ImapSsl

  com.jscape.inet.imap.Imap
      com.jscape.inet.imapssl.ImapSsl

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class ImapSsl

extends Imap

Implements the basic functionality of a secure IMAP client using SSL/TLS. Client supports both implicit SSL/TLS on port 993 (default) and explicit SSL/TLS using STARTTLS command on port 143.

Example Usage (implicit SSL/TLS):

 // new instance with hostname, SSL port, username and password
 ImapSsl imap = new ImapSsl("imap4.myserver.com",993,"jsmith","secret");
 try {
   // connect to IMAP4 server
   imap.connect();

   // get messages
   int messageCount = imap.getMessageCount();
   for(int i = 1; i <= messageCount(); ++i) {
     EmailMessage em = imap.getMessage(i);
   }

   // disconnect
   imap.disconnect();
 }
 catch(Exception e) {
   System.out.println(e);
 }
 

Example Usage (explicit SSL/TLS using STARTTLS command):

 // new instance with hostname, SSL port, username and password
 ImapSsl imap = new ImapSsl("imap4.myserver.com",143,"jsmith","secret");
 imap.setConnectionType(ImapSsl.STARTTLS);
 try {
   // connect to IMAP4 server
   imap.connect();

   // get messages
   int messageCount = imap.getMessageCount();
   for(int i = 1; i <= messageCount(); ++i) {
     EmailMessage em = imap.getMessage(i);
   }

   // disconnect
   imap.disconnect();
 }
 catch(Exception e) {
   System.out.println(e);
 }
