  • Method Details

    • getQuota

      Quota[] getQuota(String folder) throws MessagingException
      Get the quotas for the named folder. Quotas are controlled on the basis of a quota root, not (necessarily) a folder. The relationship between folders and quota roots depends on the server. Some servers might implement a single quota root for all folders owned by a user. Other servers might implement a separate quota root for each folder. A single folder can even have multiple quota roots, perhaps controlling quotas for different resources.
      Parameters:
      folder - the name of the folder
      Returns:
      array of Quota objects
      Throws:
      MessagingException - if the server doesn't support the QUOTA extension

    • setQuota

      void setQuota(Quota quota) throws MessagingException
      Set the quotas for the quota root specified in the quota argument. Typically this will be one of the quota roots obtained from the getQuota method, but it need not be.
      Parameters:
      quota - the quota to set
      Throws:
      MessagingException - if the server doesn't support the QUOTA extension
