    58 // Imap4 Client MTM  
    59 class CImap4ClientMtm : public CBaseMtm, public MImUndoOffLineOperation
    60 
    61 /** IMAP4 client MTM interface, providing access to the email services using the IMAP4 
    62 protocol.
    63 
    64 The class provides support for:
    65 
    66 - connecting to remote IMAP4 mail servers
    67 - synchronising message headers with mailboxes on these servers
    68 - getting message bodies and attachments
    69 - copying and moving messages
    70 - creating messages that forward or reply to IMAP4 messages
    71 - server notification of new messages using IMAP IDLE
    72 - queueing operations requested when there is no connection to a mail server, to be 
    73 performed when a connection is made (offline operations).
    74 
    75 Note that CImap4ClientMtm does not support many of the generic functions defined by 
    76 the @c CBaseMtm base class. In particular:
    77 
    78 - Message address information, body, subjects, and attachments are not manipulated 
    79 through CImap4ClientMtm. Consequently, SaveMessageL() has an empty 
    80 implementation, and is not used. Message access and manipulation is instead done 
    81 through CImEmailMessage, which understands the email specific message formats, 
    82 including MHTML (RFC 2557). The RFC 822 email header, which includes subject and 
    83 address information, is encapsulated in a CImHeader object, which can be obtained from 
    84 a CImEmailMessage object. IMAP also has its own specific flags, such as draft, 
    85 answered, and deleted: this can be accessed through TMsvEmailEntry, which extends the 
    86 message server's generic TMsvEntry to add email-specific information.
    87 
    88 - The idea of a default service used by base class functions DefaultServiceL(), 
    89 ChangeDefaultServiceL(), and RemoveDefaultServiceL() is not supported.
    90 
    91 IMAP specific commands are issued through the InvokeAsyncFunctionL() function, with 
    92 the commands defined in the #TImap4Cmds enumeration. Details of particular commands 
    93 are given in the documentation for that enumeration, but the following describes some of 
    94 the key concepts required to use those commands. Note that usually these commands do 
    95 not correspond directly to the IMAP protocol commands described in RFC 3501. Instead, 
    96 they are at a higher level, to simplify the logic required for an email client program. 
    97 
    98 --------------------------------------
    99 
   100 Connection and services
   101 
   102 Settings for connection to and use of an IMAP4 mail server and its mailboxes are 
   103 encapsulated in an CImImap4Settings object, created and accessed through 
   104 CEmailAccounts. Preferences for the network connection (e.g. the ISP to use) to be made 
   105 to access an IMAP server are also accessed through CEmailAccounts.
   106 
   107 The settings are associated with a service-type entry in the Message Server's message 
   108 store. Message and folder type entries under the service entry store a local copy of the 
   109 mailboxes and messages that are present on an IMAP server. For this reason, the service 
   110 is sometimes referred to as the local mirror of an IMAP server.
   111 
   112 By default, it is assumed that the user has a primary mailbox on the server called INBOX, 
   113 though this can be changed if necessary using CImImap4Settings::SetFolderPathL(). (To 
   114 avoid confusion, the term "Inbox" used in the IMAP MTM documentation refers to this 
   115 mailbox, rather than the Message Server's standard local Inbox folder.)
   116 
   117 The settings store the user's log-in details required to access the IMAP server, and other 
   118 settings not related to connection, but which affect the behaviour of commands, such as 
   119 synchronisation, made to the service.
   120 
   121 --------------------------------------
   122 
   123 Synchronisation
   124 
   125 The IMAP4 MTM provides the means to synchronise message headers on a remote 
   126 IMAP mailboxes with the messages headers on the phone. Note that synchronisation only 
   127 refers to message headers. Once headers are synchronised, populate operations (i.e. 
   128 getting the message bodies) can be done.
   129 
   130 The basic steps involved in a full synchronisation are:
   131 
   132 - The headers of messages in the Inbox are synchronised. 
   133 - The local list of folders is synchronised with those existing on the remote IMAP service. 
   134 Depending on the service settings, the local or remote settings of subscribed mailboxes 
   135 may be updated (see below for more information). 
   136 - The headers of messages in subscribed folders are synchronised. 
   137 
   138 Queued offline operations (see below) pending on the Inbox or subscribed folders are 
   139 performed prior to the relevant folder being synchronised.
   140 
   141 Synchronisations can be performed in the background or the foreground. A foreground 
   142 synchronisation means no other requests, such as message fetching, can be made to the 
   143 MTM, until the synchronisation is complete. A background synchronisation allows some 
   144 types of command to be given while it is in progress. Commands that write to the remote 
   145 server are not allowed however while a background synchronisation is in progress. A 
   146 client is informed of the state of a background synchronisation through the 
   147 MMsvImapConnectionObserver callback interface.
   148 
   149 Synchronisations commands are made through  
   150 CImap4ClientMtm::InvokeAsyncFunctionL(). There a variety of commands available 
   151 that give different options for compounding synchronisation
   152 with other commands, such as connection, and synchronising only particular folders. See 
   153 TImap4Cmds for details. Progress information for synchronisation commands can be 
   154 obtained from the CMsvOperation object returned by the InvokeAsyncFunctionL(). 
   155 Synchronisation progress information is encapsulated in a TImap4SyncProgress object.
   156 
   157 Settings that affect how a synchronisation is performed include:
   158 
   159 - Subscriptions: when an IMAP service had been synchronised, the Messaging server will 
   160 contain entries for all folders on the remote server. These entries will be marked invisible 
   161 within the TMsvEntry for the folder, implying that they should be invisible to the user. 
   162 Messages in these folders are not synchronised unless the folder has been subscribed to. 
   163 Note a folder subscription can be set either locally (i.e. just on the phone), using 
   164 the #KIMAP4MTMLocalSubscribe command, or remotely (on the server), possibly through email 
   165 clients on other devices. A service can be set to synchronise folders using either or both 
   166 of these types of subscription (CImImap4Settings::SetSynchronise()). Local and remote 
   167 subscriptions can themselves be synchronised in various ways (CImImap4Settings::SetSuscribe()).
   168 
   169 - Filters: a filter prevents certain e-mail messages from being synchronised onto the 
   170 device when a client requests a synchronisation. Filters can include anything permitted by 
   171 the IMAP Search command, including date, size, content, and message flags.
   172 
   173 - Limits: service settings can limit the number of emails synchronised to the inbox 
   174 (CImImap4Settings::SetInboxSynchronisationLimit()), and to other folders 
   175 (CImImap4Settings::SetMailboxSynchronisationLimit()).
   176 
   177 - Sync rate: one of the synchronisation commands 
   178 (KIMAP4MTMConnectAndSyncCompleteAfterDisconnect) periodically resynchronises 
   179 the Inbox until the service is disconnected. CImImap4Settings::SyncRate() sets the 
   180 refresh period.
   181 
   182 --------------------------------------
   183 
   184 Getting and copying messages
   185 
   186 After messages headers have been synchronised, message bodies and attachments can be 
   187 fetched from the remote email server. Getting message parts and saving them in the 
   188 mirror service is calling populating them.
   189 
   190 Commands for these actions can be made through  
   191 CImap4ClientMtm::InvokeAsyncFunctionL(). There are a large number of commands, 
   192 for different combinations of these options:
   193 
   194 - action type: whether to just populate messages, or to also copy or move them to a local 
   195 folder 
   196 - message selection: whether to get all, new, or selected messages
   197 - connection: whether to make a new connection or assume an existing connection
   198 - disconnect: whether to disconnect or stay online after operation is complete
   199 
   200 For the populate type commands, further options can be set that control the message 
   201 getting behaviour.  Basic options control, encapsulated in TImImap4GetMailInfo, specify 
   202 whether body text and/or attachments are fetched, and a maximum message size. There 
   203 are also options, encapsulated in TImImap4GetPartialMailInfo, that allow size limits to 
   204 be separately specified for body text and/or attachments. If the the body is larger than the 
   205 limit, then the body is partially downloaded up to the limit. Only attachments smaller 
   206 than the specified size are downloaded. A partially downloaded message can later be 
   207 fully downloaded.
   208 
   209 For the copy or move type commands,  a TImImap4GetMailInfo parameter is supplied, in 
   210 order to specify the destination folder for the messages, and a maximum message size. 
   211 
   212 Progress information for getting commands can be obtained from the CMsvOperation 
   213 object returned by the InvokeAsyncFunctionL(). Progress information is encapsulated in 
   214 a TImap4GenericProgress object.
   215 
   216 Fetching and then copying or moving specified messages can also be performed by using 
   217 the standard Messaging Framework @c CMsvEntry::CopyL() and @c 
   218 CMsvEntry::MoveL() functions on entries under the remote service. If these functions are 
   219 used, then the entire message is fetched without size limits.
   220 
   221 CMsvEntry functions can also be used to:
   222 
   223 - create a folder on a remote server
   224 - delete messages
   225 - copy or move messages from a local folder into a remote folder
   226 - copy or move messages between remote folders
   227 
   228 Note that changing an existing entry through CMsvEntry is not supported. An MTM-
   229 specific command #KIMAP4MTMRenameFolder is instead provided to rename a remote 
   230 folder.
   231 
   232 The page "CMsvEntry functions for IMAP4 message entries", linked to in the "See also" 
   233 section below, provides more details on using CMsvEntry.
   234 
   235 --------------------------------------
   236 
   237 Offline operations
   238 
   239 Some operations can only be performed while online, while other commands may 
   240 be stored while offline for processing when next connected. An attempt to perform a 
   241 command while offline that requires the MTM to be connected results in immediate 
   242 completion with the error code KErrDisconnected.
   243 
   244 Permitted offline operations include:
   245 
   246 - copy
   247 - move
   248 - delete
   249 
   250 Queued offline operations are usually performed when a connection is made, prior to the  
   251 relevant folder being synchronised. Delete operations can alternatively be set to be done 
   252 on disconnection using the service setting 
   253 CImImap4Settings::SetDeleteEmailsWhenDisconnecting().
   254 
   255 Note that:
   256 - Offline operations are only permitted if the service setting SetDisconnectedUserMode() 
   257 is true.
   258 - It is possible to undo pending offline operations using the commands 
   259 #KIMAP4MTMCancelOffLineOperations and #KIMAP4MTMUndeleteAll.
   260 
   261 --------------------------------------
   262 
   263 IMAP IDLE support
   264 
   265 IMAP IDLE (RFC 2177) is an optional expansion of the IMAP email accessing protocol 
   266 that allows the server to send updates to the client that messages have been created or 
   267 deleted in real time. The IDLE command is sent from the client to the server when the 
   268 client is ready to accept unsolicited mailbox update messages. Whether the client requests 
   269 the server to provide IDLE support is set in the CImImap4Settings::SetImapIdle() service 
   270 setting. When the IMAP MTM receives such a notification, it synchronises the changed 
   271 folder. Email clients can be notified of such changes by setting a MMsvEntryObserver 
   272 observer on a folder.
