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

// Select an IMAP mailbox
if imap.select_mailbox("Inbox").is_err() {

// We can choose to fetch UIDs or sequence numbers.

// 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.

// When a full email is downloaded, we would use the
// email.NumAttachments property in conjunction with the

// we need to access the attachment info differently:
