使用Java通过同一用户帐户访问多个电子邮件箱

Question

I am trying to read additional email boxes for a single user. For Example : if user A has two account. one its own and one more additionally configured for it. Is there a way in Java or Javamail API to access folders for both these accounts?

 store.connect("mail.abc.com","user","password");

  // Get a handle on the default folder
  folder = store.getFolder("inbox"); ///This works fine
 Folder[] f = store.getFolder("additionalbox").list(); // this doesnot work
 for(Folder fd : f){
     System.out.println(">>" +  fd.getName());
 }

Hierarchy is :

 user
     inbox

additionalbox
      inbox

Is there any way to achieve it ?

Answer 1

Create a different Store object for each account and access them that way. Its up to your interface to make it look seamless to the user.
