====mime====
 +
 
 +
Represents the MIME mail configuration parameters.
 +
 
 +
The '''mime''' Element is used by: [[#mail-service|mail-service]].
 +
 
 +
The following table shows its attributes:
 +
{|class="gvtable"
 +
! Attribute !! Type !! Description
 +
|-
 +
| address-strict || optional || The mail.mime.address.strict session property controls the parsing of address headers.
 +
By default, strict parsing of address headers is done.
 +
If this property is set to "false", strict parsing is not done and many illegal addresses that sometimes occur in real messages are allowed. See the InternetAddress class for details.
 +
The attribute's admitted values are:
 +
* false
 +
* true
 +
The attribute's value cannot be null.
 +
|-
 +
| charset || optional || The mail.mime.charset System property can be used to specify the default MIME charset to use for encoded words and text parts that don't otherwise specify a charset.
 +
Normally, the default MIME charset is derived from the default Java charset, as specified in the file.encoding System property.
 +
Most applications will have no need to explicitly set the default MIME charset.
 +
In cases where the default MIME charset to be used for mail messages is different than the charset used for files stored on
 +
the system, this property should be setted.
 +
The attribute's value cannot be null.
 +
|-
 +
| decodetext-strict || optional || The mail.mime.decodetext.strict property controls decoding of MIME encoded words.
 +
The MIME spec requires that encoded words start at the beginning of a whitespace separated word.
 +
Some mailers incorrectly include encoded words in the middle of a word.
 +
If the mail.mime.decodetext.strict System property is set to "false", an attempt will be made to decode these illegal encoded words.
 +
The default is "true".
 +
The attribute's admitted values are:
 +
* false
 +
* true
 +
The attribute's value cannot be null.
 +
|-
 +
| encodeeol-strict || optional || The mail.mime.encodeeol.strict property controls the choice of Content-Transfer-Encoding for MIME parts that are not of type "text".
 +
Often such parts will contain textual data for which an encoding that allows normal end of line conventions is appropriate. In rare cases, such a part will appear to contain entirely textual data, but will require an encoding that preserves CR and LF characters without change.
 +
If the mail.mime.encodeeol.strict System property is set to "true", such an encoding will be used when necessary.
 +
The default is "false".
 +
The attribute's admitted values are:
 +
* false
 +
* true
 +
The attribute's value cannot be null.
 +
|-
 +
| base64-ignoreerrors || optional || If set to "true", the BASE64 decoder will ignore errors in the encoded data, returning EOF.
 +
This may be useful when dealing with improperly encoded messages that contain extraneous data at the end of the encoded stream. Note however that errors anywhere in the stream will cause the decoder to stop decoding so this should be used with extreme caution.
 +
The default is "false".
 +
This property is supported by Sun's implementation of JavaMail, but is not currently a required part of the specification.
 +
The attribute's admitted values are:
 +
* false
 +
* true
 +
The attribute's value cannot be null.
 +
|-
 +
| foldtext || optional || If set to "true", header fields containing just text such as the Subject and Content-Description header fields, and long parameter values in structured headers such as Content-Type will be folded (broken into 76 character lines) when set and unfolded when read.
 +
The default is "true".
 +
This property is supported by Sun's implementation of JavaMail, but is not currently a required part of the specification.
 +
The attribute's admitted values are:
 +
* false
 +
* true
 +
The attribute's value cannot be null.
 +
|-
 +
| setcontenttypefilename || optional || If set to "true", the setFileName method will also set the name parameter on the Content-Type header to the specified filename. This supports interoperability with some old mail clients.
 +
The default is "true".
 +
This property is supported by Sun's implementation of JavaMail, but is not currently a required part of the specification.
 +
The attribute's admitted values are:
 +
* false
 +
* true
 +
The attribute's value cannot be null.
 +
|-
 +
| setdefaulttextcharset || optional || When updating the headers of a message, a body part with a text content type but no charset parameter will have a charset parameter added to it if this property is set to "true".
 +
The default is "true".
 +
This property is supported by Sun's implementation of JavaMail, but is not currently a required part of the specification.
 +
The attribute's admitted values are:
 +
* false
 +
* true
 +
The attribute's value cannot be null.
 +
|-
 +
| multipart-ignoremissingendboundary || optional || When parsing a multipart MIME message, a message that is missing the final end boundary line is not considered as an error. The data simply ends at the end of the input.
 +
Note that messages of this form violate the MIME specification.
 +
If the property mail.mime.multipart.ignoremissingendboundary is setted to "false", such messages are considered an error and a
 +
MesagingException will be thrown when parsing such a message.
 +
This property is supported by Sun Microsystem implementation of JavaMail, but is not currently a required part of the specification.
 +
The attribute's admitted values are:
 +
* false

appendbuffersize optional Maximum size of a message to buffer in memory when appending to an IMAP folder.

If not set, or set to "-1", there is no maximum and all messages are buffered. If set to "0", no message is buffered. If set to (for example) "8192", messages of 8Kb or less are buffered, larger messages are not buffered. Buffering saves cpu time at the expense of short term memory usage. If you commonly append very large messages to IMAP mailboxes you might want to set this to a moderate value (1Mb or less). The attribute's value cannot be null.

connectionpoolsize optional Maximum number of available connections in the connection pool.

The Default is "1". The attribute's value cannot be null.

allowreadonlyselect optional If "false", when opening a folder read / write will get an error if the SELECT command succeeds but indicates that the folder is READ-ONLY.

This sometimes indicates that the folder contents can NOT be changed, but the flags are per-user and can be changed, such as might be the case for public shared folders. If set to "true", such open attempts will succeed, allowing the flags to be changed. The getMode method on the Folder object will return Folder.READ_ONLY in this case even though the open method specified is Folder.READ_WRITE. The Default is "false". The attribute's admitted values are:

  • false
  • true

The attribute's value cannot be null.

Might contain the sub-elements:

mime

Represents the MIME mail configuration parameters.

The mime Element is used by: mail-service.

The following table shows its attributes:

Attribute Type Description
address-strict optional The mail.mime.address.strict session property controls the parsing of address headers.

By default, strict parsing of address headers is done. If this property is set to "false", strict parsing is not done and many illegal addresses that sometimes occur in real messages are allowed. See the InternetAddress class for details. The attribute's admitted values are:

  • false
  • true

The attribute's value cannot be null.

charset optional The mail.mime.charset System property can be used to specify the default MIME charset to use for encoded words and text parts that don't otherwise specify a charset.

Normally, the default MIME charset is derived from the default Java charset, as specified in the file.encoding System property. Most applications will have no need to explicitly set the default MIME charset. In cases where the default MIME charset to be used for mail messages is different than the charset used for files stored on the system, this property should be setted. The attribute's value cannot be null.

decodetext-strict optional The mail.mime.decodetext.strict property controls decoding of MIME encoded words.

The MIME spec requires that encoded words start at the beginning of a whitespace separated word. Some mailers incorrectly include encoded words in the middle of a word. If the mail.mime.decodetext.strict System property is set to "false", an attempt will be made to decode these illegal encoded words. The default is "true". The attribute's admitted values are:

  • false
  • true

The attribute's value cannot be null.

encodeeol-strict optional The mail.mime.encodeeol.strict property controls the choice of Content-Transfer-Encoding for MIME parts that are not of type "text".

Often such parts will contain textual data for which an encoding that allows normal end of line conventions is appropriate. In rare cases, such a part will appear to contain entirely textual data, but will require an encoding that preserves CR and LF characters without change. If the mail.mime.encodeeol.strict System property is set to "true", such an encoding will be used when necessary. The default is "false". The attribute's admitted values are:

  • false
  • true

The attribute's value cannot be null.

base64-ignoreerrors optional If set to "true", the BASE64 decoder will ignore errors in the encoded data, returning EOF.

This may be useful when dealing with improperly encoded messages that contain extraneous data at the end of the encoded stream. Note however that errors anywhere in the stream will cause the decoder to stop decoding so this should be used with extreme caution. The default is "false". This property is supported by Sun's implementation of JavaMail, but is not currently a required part of the specification. The attribute's admitted values are:

  • false
  • true

The attribute's value cannot be null.

foldtext optional If set to "true", header fields containing just text such as the Subject and Content-Description header fields, and long parameter values in structured headers such as Content-Type will be folded (broken into 76 character lines) when set and unfolded when read.

The default is "true". This property is supported by Sun's implementation of JavaMail, but is not currently a required part of the specification. The attribute's admitted values are:

  • false
  • true

The attribute's value cannot be null.

setcontenttypefilename optional If set to "true", the setFileName method will also set the name parameter on the Content-Type header to the specified filename. This supports interoperability with some old mail clients.

The default is "true". This property is supported by Sun's implementation of JavaMail, but is not currently a required part of the specification. The attribute's admitted values are:

  • false
  • true

The attribute's value cannot be null.

setdefaulttextcharset optional When updating the headers of a message, a body part with a text content type but no charset parameter will have a charset parameter added to it if this property is set to "true".

The default is "true". This property is supported by Sun's implementation of JavaMail, but is not currently a required part of the specification. The attribute's admitted values are:

  • false
  • true

The attribute's value cannot be null.

multipart-ignoremissingendboundary optional When parsing a multipart MIME message, a message that is missing the final end boundary line is not considered as an error. The data simply ends at the end of the input.

Note that messages of this form violate the MIME specification. If the property mail.mime.multipart.ignoremissingendboundary is setted to "false", such messages are considered an error and a MesagingException will be thrown when parsing such a message. This property is supported by Sun Microsystem implementation of JavaMail, but is not currently a required part of the specification. The attribute's admitted values are:

  • false
  • true

The attribute's value cannot be null.
