Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

HI,
All

I know that POP3 does not support the flags. As per my knowledge the only flag POP3 supports is the DELETED. if i am not wrong.

Now what i have to do is when i fetch the mails programmatically and once i read that I want to mark that mail as read in the yahoo also. means when i reterieve the mails through my client from the yahoo mail and next time when I Open the yahoo account the mail that i have retrieve must be seen as read rather than unread.

Yahoo uses the POP3 Server for the incoming mails the same thing also happens with outlook you can find that outlook also uses POP3 as the incoming mail server and when we reterieve the mails from the yahoo using the outlook by some way Outlook marks the mails on the yahoo server as read the same thing I have to do for my client Program using the POP3 server.

If Outlook does it dispite of the POP3 server there must be some way to do the same thing for the POP3 server using the Java Mail Api.I dont know how to do that thing and mark the mails as read once I fetch them.

Any Help is appriciated,

Rahul.
