Method Details

protocolConnect

protected boolean protocolConnect(String host,
 int portNum,
 String user,
 String passwd)
                           throws MessagingException

Description copied from class: Service

The service implementation should override this method to perform the actual protocol-specific connection attempt. The default implementation of the connect method calls this method as needed.

The protocolConnect method should return false if a user name or password is required for authentication but the corresponding parameter is null; the connect method will prompt the user when needed to supply missing information. This method may also return false if authentication fails for the supplied user name or password. Alternatively, this method may throw an AuthenticationFailedException when authentication fails. This exception may include a String message with more detail about the failure.

The protocolConnect method should throw an exception to report failures not related to authentication, such as an invalid host name or port number, loss of a connection during the authentication process, unavailability of the server, etc.

Overrides:

protocolConnect in class Service

Parameters:

host - the name of the host to connect to

portNum - the port to use (-1 means use default port)

user - the name of the user to login as

passwd - the user's password

Returns:

true if connection successful, false if authentication failed

Throws:

AuthenticationFailedException - for authentication failures

MessagingException - for non-authentication failures

isConnected

public boolean isConnected()

Check whether this store is connected. Override superclass method, to actually ping our server connection.

Overrides:

isConnected in class Service

Returns:

true if the service is connected, false if it is not connected

close

public void close()
           throws MessagingException

Description copied from class: Service

Close this service and terminate its connection. A close ConnectionEvent is delivered to any ConnectionListeners. Any Messaging components (Folders, Messages, etc.) belonging to this service are invalid after this service is closed. Note that the service is closed even if this method terminates abnormally by throwing a MessagingException.

This implementation uses setConnected(false) to set this service's connected state to false. It will then send a close ConnectionEvent to any registered ConnectionListeners. Subclasses overriding this method to do implementation specific cleanup should call this method as a last step to insure event notification, probably by including a call to super.close() in a finally clause.

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Overrides:

close in class Service

Throws:

MessagingException - for errors while closing

See Also:

• ConnectionEvent

getDefaultFolder

public Folder getDefaultFolder()
                        throws MessagingException

Description copied from class: Store

Returns a Folder object that represents the 'root' of the default namespace presented to the user by the Store.

Specified by:

getDefaultFolder in class Store

Returns:

the root Folder

Throws:

MessagingException - for other failures

getFolder

public Folder getFolder(String name)
                 throws MessagingException

Only the name "INBOX" is supported.

Specified by:

getFolder in class Store

Parameters:

name - The name of the Folder. In some Stores, name can be an absolute path if it starts with the hierarchy delimiter. Else it is interpreted relative to the 'root' of this namespace.

Returns:

Folder object

Throws:

MessagingException - for other failures

See Also:

• Folder.create(int)
• Folder.exists()

getFolder

public Folder getFolder(URLName url)
                 throws MessagingException

Description copied from class: Store

Return a closed Folder object, corresponding to the given URLName. The store specified in the given URLName should refer to this Store object.

Implementations of this method may obtain the name of the actual folder using the getFile() method on URLName, and use that name to create the folder.

Specified by:

getFolder in class Store

Parameters:

url - URLName that denotes a folder

Returns:

Folder object

Throws:

MessagingException - for other failures

See Also:

• URLName

capabilities

public Map<String,String> capabilities()
                                throws MessagingException

Return a Map of the capabilities the server provided, as per RFC 2449. If the server doesn't support RFC 2449, an emtpy Map is returned. The returned Map can not be modified. The key to the Map is the upper case capability name as a String. The value of the entry is the entire String capability line returned by the server.

For example, to check if the server supports the STLS capability, use: if (store.capabilities().containsKey("STLS")) ...

Returns:

Map of capabilities

Throws:

MessagingException - for failures

Since:

JavaMail 1.4.3

isSSL

public boolean isSSL()

Is this POP3Store using SSL to connect to the server?

Returns:

true if using SSL

Since:

JavaMail 1.4.6

finalize

protected void finalize()
                 throws Throwable

Description copied from class: Service

Stop the event dispatcher thread so the queue can be garbage collected.

Overrides:

finalize in class Service

Throws:

Throwable
