Hello All,

i am using java mail api to download the messages. when i use getSize() method on message object, i get the size which is not equal when i check the size of .eml file that i have downloaded.

i have trace the protocol also and i got some lines when FETCH command issued like

FETCH (RFC822.SIZE 1482575 INTERNALDATE .........

.
.
.
.

FETCH (BODY[HEADER] {911}
.
.
.

FETCH (BODY[] {1485190}



Here in the above lines, message.getSize gives the size 1482575 bytes and after downloading message , the size of .eml file is 1485190 bytes.

now i have to validate that whether the message is downloaded completely or not, so when i compare the sizes as

if( .eml file size== message.getSize()) and in the above case they dont match. Obviously 1485190 is not equal to 1482575 .

so How will i get the size when FETCH command issued for body like

FETCH (BODY[] {1485190}, so as to i can validate the message.

I want to get the size 1485190 . so How can i do this?
