IMAP Messages Transfer Tool

Hey i found some comments in selectfolder method
" Only one mailbox can be selected at a time in a connection;simultaneous access to multiple mailboxes requires multiple connections. " and i got exception from this method
" SELECT folder INBOX is locked by another connection"

is it what trying to say only one application can select folder ?

thmeans you need to create multiple IMAP client instances to access same accoutn at same time.

yes that is what i am doing ..right ?
but still what is happening with server or application i am damn confused what i need to do
now i am tired may be you also ha ha .. Smile | :)

sorry and thanks for such a instant help..

to be honest, i don't know what are you doing.

oh..so you dont get what i am trying to say till now ?

it may be because of lake of communication .. Frown | :(

I'm talking about coding side.
Code can be written many ways, some "way" may have dead end.

Just discussing and seeing some code fragments, i can't say what you do wrong or how to handle some situations right.

As earlier said, you should try catch error and retry operation after failure, but sleep between to allow server lock to be released.

yes i did it what u said let see it helps me or not .
and about code i have just copy and paste methods in your sample application where i needed and dont modified even core methods.the only difference is i have handle it automatically rather i dont have to click anywhere ..

Hello Ivar ,

I am waiting for my last question, and now i have new question .
i am doing following process and i get "Re-Authentication error ".

public void Connect(string host, int port, bool ssl); from TCP_Client
public void Login(string user, string password); from IMAP_Client
then ----imap.Disconnect();

again imap.Connect() with check imap.IsConnected property
then imap.Login() ---here where i got exception "Re-Authentication"

my question is that when i am using imap.Disconnect(); then it should automatically disconnect and also remove authenticity as well but i got exception ..
so what should i do to complete disconnect from server ..after i disconnected from server i want to process whole thing again i am doing first time login ..or any way to prevent this..

please help me as soon as possible.

Hi,

Yes you are right thats bug. Funny noone reused IMAP_Client before, seems everyone created new instance, so error never rised.

SVN version is fixed now.

Hello

So what i need to do ? from where i can download latest version as i have no download link now.

You must install some SVN client(like http://ankhsvn.open.collab.net/downloads), then you can open project from source code server.

SVN:
https://svn.lumisoft.ee:8443/svn/LumiSoft_Net/
User: readonly
Password: readonly

hello ,
I have downloaded LUMISOFT.net dll from your site as i am developing some tool which fetch unread mail continuously without any client interaction for business process so how can i get number of unread mail by folder name("INBOX").

and one more thing i have just starting using this library so please i hope i will get full future guidance to use of this library .

hope will get reply soon. Smile | :)

Hi,

You must use search command.

Something like that:
imapClient.Search(true,null,"(\unseen)")

this gives you UID's of unseen messages, after it you can fetch them.

hello ,

i have tried with this --->imap.Search(true, null, "(\\unseen)");
but it give exception following.

"NO UID SEARCH unrecognised arguments".

i want to debug this library but i couldn't.
what should i do ?

Regards ,

You may try imap.Search(false

May be that server won't support UID extention.

Also you may try "\\unseen" without parentheses, but server shuld accpet both syntax.

hello ,
thanks i have done with search mail which is unread now i got this exception ,so what should i have to do to increase seconds to fetch mail because i don't want to drop or skip any mail. tell me how many changes i have to implement.?

"Failed to parse message within 30 seconds."

note :mail is also not so high volume it has just 1mb attachment only.

hello
can i do something like move 1 email which is in unread folder on my server and i want to move particular mails to other folder lik unread to inbox folder..pls help me about this as it is my current R&D topic

You should use IMAP client MoveMessages method todo it.
Normally you need to know message UID first, then you can move it.

Thanks for this reply

The latest version is available at
http://www.lumisoft.ee/l...oad/downloads/Examples/[^]

You can get it from there. The one on codeproject is really old.

Thanks to the post at http://www.lumisoft.ee/Forum/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2794&#post2794[^]

Hope this helps someone.

Thanks!!!!

I have searched high and low all over the internet looking for a tool like this, there are very few and the other ones that exist out there are way too complicated to be worthwhile.
