Mailio

As with POP3, it is possible to get the mailbox statistics. There is a structure of the same name as in POP3 — imap::mailbox_stat_t, but with more information: number of messages in a mailbox, number of recent and unseen messages, unique identifier data. The statistics can be asked for any mailbox, not only the selected one and it can time consuming. For that reason, there is the bitmask imap::mailbox_stat_t::stat_info_t which specifies what kind of data will be requested.

The method imap::statistics has two overloads: one for the mailbox name as string and the other as list of strings.

try
{
    imap conn("imap.server.com", 143);
    conn.authenticate("mailio@server.com", "mailiopass", imap::auth_method_t::LOGIN);
    imaps::mailbox_stat_t stat1 = conn.statistics("Inbox/Archive/Development");
    imaps::mailbox_stat_t stat2 = conn.statistics(list<string>{"Inbox", "Archive", "Development"});
}
catch (imap_error& exc)
{
    cout << exc.what() << endl;
}
catch (dialog_error& exc)
{
    cout << exc.what() << endl;
}
