class CImap4ClientMtm : public CBaseMtm, public MImUndoOffLineOperation
/** IMAP4 client MTM interface, providing access to the email services using the IMAP4
protocol.
The class provides support for:
- connecting to remote IMAP4 mail servers
- synchronising message headers with mailboxes on these servers
- getting message bodies and attachments
- copying and moving messages
- creating messages that forward or reply to IMAP4 messages
- server notification of new messages using IMAP IDLE
- queueing operations requested when there is no connection to a mail server, to be
performed when a connection is made (offline operations).
Note that CImap4ClientMtm does not support many of the generic functions defined by
the @c CBaseMtm base class. In particular:
- Message address information, body, subjects, and attachments are not manipulated
through CImap4ClientMtm. Consequently, SaveMessageL() has an empty
implementation, and is not used. Message access and manipulation is instead done
through CImEmailMessage, which understands the email specific message formats,
including MHTML (RFC 2557). The RFC 822 email header, which includes subject and
address information, is encapsulated in a CImHeader object, which can be obtained from
a CImEmailMessage object. IMAP also has its own specific flags, such as draft,
answered, and deleted: this can be accessed through TMsvEmailEntry, which extends the
message server's generic TMsvEntry to add email-specific information.
- The idea of a default service used by base class functions DefaultServiceL(),
ChangeDefaultServiceL(), and RemoveDefaultServiceL() is not supported.
IMAP specific commands are issued through the InvokeAsyncFunctionL() function, with
the commands defined in the #TImap4Cmds enumeration. Details of particular commands
are given in the documentation for that enumeration, but the following describes some of
the key concepts required to use those commands. Note that usually these commands do
not correspond directly to the IMAP protocol commands described in RFC 3501. Instead,
they are at a higher level, to simplify the logic required for an email client program.
--------------------------------------
Connection and services
Settings for connection to and use of an IMAP4 mail server and its mailboxes are
encapsulated in an CImImap4Settings object, created and accessed through
CEmailAccounts. Preferences for the network connection (e.g. the ISP to use) to be made
to access an IMAP server are also accessed through CEmailAccounts.
The settings are associated with a service-type entry in the Message Server's message
store. Message and folder type entries under the service entry store a local copy of the
mailboxes and messages that are present on an IMAP server. For this reason, the service
is sometimes referred to as the local mirror of an IMAP server.
By default, it is assumed that the user has a primary mailbox on the server called INBOX,
though this can be changed if necessary using CImImap4Settings::SetFolderPathL(). (To
avoid confusion, the term "Inbox" used in the IMAP MTM documentation refers to this
mailbox, rather than the Message Server's standard local Inbox folder.)
The settings store the user's log-in details required to access the IMAP server, and other
settings not related to connection, but which affect the behaviour of commands, such as
synchronisation, made to the service.
--------------------------------------
Synchronisation
The IMAP4 MTM provides the means to synchronise message headers on a remote
IMAP mailboxes with the messages headers on the phone. Note that synchronisation only
refers to message headers. Once headers are synchronised, populate operations (i.e.
getting the message bodies) can be done.
The basic steps involved in a full synchronisation are:
- The headers of messages in the Inbox are synchronised.
- The local list of folders is synchronised with those existing on the remote IMAP service.
Depending on the service settings, the local or remote settings of subscribed mailboxes
may be updated (see below for more information).
- The headers of messages in subscribed folders are synchronised.
Queued offline operations (see below) pending on the Inbox or subscribed folders are
performed prior to the relevant folder being synchronised.
Synchronisations can be performed in the background or the foreground. A foreground
synchronisation means no other requests, such as message fetching, can be made to the
MTM, until the synchronisation is complete. A background synchronisation allows some
types of command to be given while it is in progress. Commands that write to the remote
server are not allowed however while a background synchronisation is in progress. A
client is informed of the state of a background synchronisation through the
MMsvImapConnectionObserver callback interface.
Synchronisations commands are made through
CImap4ClientMtm::InvokeAsyncFunctionL(). There a variety of commands available
that give different options for compounding synchronisation
with other commands, such as connection, and synchronising only particular folders. See
TImap4Cmds for details. Progress information for synchronisation commands can be
obtained from the CMsvOperation object returned by the InvokeAsyncFunctionL().
Synchronisation progress information is encapsulated in a TImap4SyncProgress object.
Settings that affect how a synchronisation is performed include:
- Subscriptions: when an IMAP service had been synchronised, the Messaging server will
contain entries for all folders on the remote server. These entries will be marked invisible
within the TMsvEntry for the folder, implying that they should be invisible to the user.
Messages in these folders are not synchronised unless the folder has been subscribed to.
Note a folder subscription can be set either locally (i.e. just on the phone), using
the #KIMAP4MTMLocalSubscribe command, or remotely (on the server), possibly through email
clients on other devices. A service can be set to synchronise folders using either or both
of these types of subscription (CImImap4Settings::SetSynchronise()). Local and remote
subscriptions can themselves be synchronised in various ways (CImImap4Settings::SetSuscribe()).
- Filters: a filter prevents certain e-mail messages from being synchronised onto the
device when a client requests a synchronisation. Filters can include anything permitted by
the IMAP Search command, including date, size, content, and message flags.
- Limits: service settings can limit the number of emails synchronised to the inbox
(CImImap4Settings::SetInboxSynchronisationLimit()), and to other folders
(CImImap4Settings::SetMailboxSynchronisationLimit()).
- Sync rate: one of the synchronisation commands
(KIMAP4MTMConnectAndSyncCompleteAfterDisconnect) periodically resynchronises
the Inbox until the service is disconnected. CImImap4Settings::SyncRate() sets the
refresh period.
--------------------------------------
Getting and copying messages
After messages headers have been synchronised, message bodies and attachments can be
fetched from the remote email server. Getting message parts and saving them in the
mirror service is calling populating them.
Commands for these actions can be made through
CImap4ClientMtm::InvokeAsyncFunctionL(). There are a large number of commands,
for different combinations of these options:
- action type: whether to just populate messages, or to also copy or move them to a local
folder
- message selection: whether to get all, new, or selected messages
- connection: whether to make a new connection or assume an existing connection
- disconnect: whether to disconnect or stay online after operation is complete
For the populate type commands, further options can be set that control the message
getting behaviour. Basic options control, encapsulated in TImImap4GetMailInfo, specify
whether body text and/or attachments are fetched, and a maximum message size. There
are also options, encapsulated in TImImap4GetPartialMailInfo, that allow size limits to
be separately specified for body text and/or attachments. If the the body is larger than the
limit, then the body is partially downloaded up to the limit. Only attachments smaller
than the specified size are downloaded. A partially downloaded message can later be
fully downloaded.
For the copy or move type commands, a TImImap4GetMailInfo parameter is supplied, in
order to specify the destination folder for the messages, and a maximum message size.
Progress information for getting commands can be obtained from the CMsvOperation
object returned by the InvokeAsyncFunctionL(). Progress information is encapsulated in
a TImap4GenericProgress object.
Fetching and then copying or moving specified messages can also be performed by using
the standard Messaging Framework @c CMsvEntry::CopyL() and @c
CMsvEntry::MoveL() functions on entries under the remote service. If these functions are
used, then the entire message is fetched without size limits.
CMsvEntry functions can also be used to:
- create a folder on a remote server
- delete messages
- copy or move messages from a local folder into a remote folder
- copy or move messages between remote folders
Note that changing an existing entry through CMsvEntry is not supported. An MTM-
specific command #KIMAP4MTMRenameFolder is instead provided to rename a remote
folder.
The page "CMsvEntry functions for IMAP4 message entries", linked to in the "See also"
section below, provides more details on using CMsvEntry.
--------------------------------------
Offline operations
Some operations can only be performed while online, while other commands may
be stored while offline for processing when next connected. An attempt to perform a
command while offline that requires the MTM to be connected results in immediate
completion with the error code KErrDisconnected.
Permitted offline operations include:
- copy
- move
- delete
Queued offline operations are usually performed when a connection is made, prior to the
relevant folder being synchronised. Delete operations can alternatively be set to be done
on disconnection using the service setting
CImImap4Settings::SetDeleteEmailsWhenDisconnecting().
Note that:
- Offline operations are only permitted if the service setting SetDisconnectedUserMode()
is true.
- It is possible to undo pending offline operations using the commands
#KIMAP4MTMCancelOffLineOperations and #KIMAP4MTMUndeleteAll.
--------------------------------------
IMAP IDLE support
IMAP IDLE (RFC 2177) is an optional expansion of the IMAP email accessing protocol
that allows the server to send updates to the client that messages have been created or
deleted in real time. The IDLE command is sent from the client to the server when the
client is ready to accept unsolicited mailbox update messages. Whether the client requests
the server to provide IDLE support is set in the CImImap4Settings::SetImapIdle() service
setting. When the IMAP MTM receives such a notification, it synchronises the changed
folder. Email clients can be notified of such changes by setting a MMsvEntryObserver
observer on a folder.
