I am using javamail IMAP but I dont know how to get Sent or another folder except inbox -


i trying sent folder in gmail. it's depend on language. ex, if used english tree list below:

[gmail]/all mail [gmail]/bin [gmail]/drafts .... 

but if use other language, folder translated language. try create index folder it's not successful because folder sorted follow alphabet. can't hardcode : getfolder("[gmail]/sent mail"), in other language "sent mail translated. have question. can name of folder how recognize "sent mail" folder mail sent.

gmail folders have attributes , can rely on them folder want (if it's 1 of standard ones).

so, if

store.getdefaultfolder().list("*"); 

you folders, not first level. , response server should looks this:

a3 list "" "*" * list (\hasnochildren) "/" "inbox" * list (\noselect \haschildren) "/" "[gmail]" * list (\hasnochildren \all) "/" "[gmail]/all mail" * list (\hasnochildren \drafts) "/" "[gmail]/drafts" * list (\hasnochildren \important) "/" "[gmail]/important" * list (\hasnochildren \sent) "/" "[gmail]/sent mail" * list (\hasnochildren \junk) "/" "[gmail]/spam" * list (\hasnochildren \flagged) "/" "[gmail]/starred" * list (\hasnochildren \trash) "/" "[gmail]/trash" * list (\hasnochildren) "/" "[gmail]trash" 

once the list of folders can iterate them looking attribute want. if looking sent folder this:

public folder getsentfolder(folder[] folders) throws messagingexception {     (folder folder : folders) {         imapfolder imapfolder = (imapfolder) folder;         for(string attribute : imapfolder.getattributes()) {             if ("\\sent".equals(attribute)) {                 return folder;             }         }     }     return null; } 

and have folder selector language agnostic.

note works because gmail. other email servers may not have attributes
