Imap.GetMailSize vs Email.Size

Shows how to get the total size of an email, as well as the sizes of the attachments. This can be done when either full-emails or headers-only are downloaded. Visual FoxPro

* This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
* See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

loImap = CreateObject('Chilkat.Imap')

* Connect to an IMAP server.
* Use TLS
loImap.Ssl = 1
loImap.Port = 993
lnSuccess = loImap.Connect("imap.example.com")
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loImap
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Login
lnSuccess = loImap.Login("****","****")
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loImap
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Select an IMAP mailbox
lnSuccess = loImap.SelectMailbox("Inbox")
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loImap
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Get the message IDs of all the emails in the mailbox
* We can choose to fetch UIDs or sequence numbers.
lnFetchUids = 1
loMessageSet = CreateObject('Chilkat.MessageSet')
lnSuccess = loImap.QueryMbx("ALL",lnFetchUids,loMessageSet)
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loImap
    RELEASE loMessageSet
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* When downloading headers, each email object contains
* (obviously) the headers, but the body will be missing.
* Attachments will not be included.  However, it is
* possible to get information about the attachments
* as well as the complete size of the email.
loBundle = CreateObject('Chilkat.EmailBundle')
lnHeadersOnly = 1
lnSuccess = loImap.FetchMsgSet(lnHeadersOnly,loMessageSet,loBundle)
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loImap
    RELEASE loMessageSet
    RELEASE loBundle
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Loop over the email objects and display information about each:
loEmail = CreateObject('Chilkat.Email')
i = 0
j = 0
lnNumEmails = loBundle.MessageCount
DO WHILE i < lnNumEmails
    loBundle.EmailAt(i,loEmail)

    * Display the From and Subject
    ? loEmail.From
    ? loEmail.Subject

    * Display the recipients:
    j = 0
    DO WHILE j < loEmail.NumTo
        ? "TO: " + loEmail.GetToName(j) + ", " + loEmail.GetToAddr(j)
        j = j + 1
    ENDDO
    j = 0
    DO WHILE j < loEmail.NumCC
        ? "CC: " + loEmail.GetCcName(j) + ", " + loEmail.GetCcAddr(j)
        j = j + 1
    ENDDO

    * Show the total size of the email, including body and attachments:
    ? STR(loEmail.Size)

    * When a full email is downloaded, we would use the
    * email.NumAttachments property in conjunction with the
    * email.GetMailAttach* methods.
    * However, when an email object contains only the header,
    * we need to access the attachment info differently:
    lnNumAttach = loImap.GetMailNumAttach(loEmail)
    j = 0
    DO WHILE j < lnNumAttach
        ? loImap.GetMailAttachFilename(loEmail,j)
        lnAttachSize = loImap.GetMailAttachSize(loEmail,j)
        ? "    size = " + STR(lnAttachSize) + " bytes"
        j = j + 1
    ENDDO

    ? "--"

    i = i + 1
ENDDO

* Disconnect from the IMAP server.
lnSuccess = loImap.Disconnect()
