Hello Everyone
I am trying to develope an application that can read emails from mail server. I have configured my Mail server with IMAP. I got code to do so from here but it gives me only unread emails. it might be because of seen emails are delete by mail server(May Be). What i want is to access all emails seen , unseen, sent items, drafts etc.
Can any one help me.
I appreciate your help.

Fundamentals of the JavaMail API[^]

unfortunately only available as PDF, pretty great tutorial.

Your Problem:
You are receiving unread messages - but not the ones that have already been seen? That would need you to set the Flag.SEEN on the messages when you display them.

Normally one receives a complete Array of Message objects of the corresponding folder.
You're probably filtering that Array for a the flag "Flag.SEEN" to be not set.
