在IMAP IDLE命令存在响应后获取邮件消息
使用存在响应中的消息总数来获取用户ID(uid)是否安全?
7.3.1. EXISTS 响应
内容:没有
The EXISTS response reports the number of messages in the mailbox. This response occurs as a result of a SELECT or EXAMINE command, and if the size of the mailbox changes (e.g., new messages). The update from the EXISTS response MUST be recorded by the client.
示例: S: * 23 EXISTS
在应用输出中
2013-02-02 01:24:42-0500 [IMAP4Client (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),client] C: '0005 IDLE'
2013-02-02 01:24:42-0500 [IMAP4Client (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),client] S: '+ idling'
2013-02-02 01:25:17-0500 [IMAP4Client (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),client] S: '* 6 EXISTS'
2013-02-02 01:25:47-0500 [IMAP4Client (TLSMemoryBIOProtocol),client] S: '* 7 EXISTS'

我认为,只要你能及时处理邮件箱里的消息数量,并且准备好在需要显示时,如果邮件箱突然有变化(比如有消息被其他客户端删除),就立刻用搜索功能来应对,这样做是“足够安全”的。这种方法主要适用于不会删除内容的操作,所以如果你真的需要使用EXPUNGE这个功能,最好还是小心点。

呃……“安全”?如果你不是在控制核电站,那大概是安全的。这里有个简单的判断标准:如果你的软件出问题了,会有人受伤吗?如果不会,那它做的事情就是安全的。
那“正确”呢?不,这个是不正确的,因为EXISTS的回应只是告诉你邮箱里有多少条消息。它并没有告诉你这些消息的UID是什么。
