Spring integration - imap idle receiver question

I'm using spring boot 2.2.4-RELEASE and Spring integration. I'm developing a simple ImapReceiver.

What I need is the following:

  • I can configure several Imap listeners (I use the spring integration DSL)
  • I get the MimeMessage
  • I get all the information and the attachments
  • I handle these information and attachments by putting them in DB and Alfresco

I wrote the following code

ImapIdleChannelAdapterSpec imapIdleChannelAdapterSpec = Mail.imapIdleAdapter(connectionUrl.toString())
                    .javaMailProperties(javaMailProperties)
                    .shouldDeleteMessages(deleteMessages)
                    .shouldMarkMessagesAsRead(markMessagesRead)
                    .autoStartup(true)
                    .autoCloseFolder(true)
                    .id(confMailIn.getHost() + "_adapter")
                    .selector(selectFunction);

            if (confMailIn.isRichiedeAutenticazione()) {
                imapIdleChannelAdapterSpec = imapIdleChannelAdapterSpec.javaMailAuthenticator(new CasellaPostaleAuthenticator(cpd.getIndirizzoMail(), cpd.getUsername(), cpd.getPassword()));
            }
            flow = IntegrationFlows
                    .from(imapIdleChannelAdapterSpec)
                    .handle(message ->{

                        publishMailEvent(message);
                    })
                    .get();

The publishMailEvent method extracts all the needed information (e.g. TO, CC, BCC, mail subject, attachments) and generates a custom spring async event.

Now if I leave autoCloseFolder(true) I can't handle the message because I get a FolderClosedException. If I set autoCloseFolder(false) alll works but I see a neverending print

Moreover I can't figure when to close the folder. I can access to the Closeable resource, but when should I close the Folder? If I close it just after event generation, on the next message I get again FolderClosedException.

May anyone give me a tip to understand the best way to handle what I need?

Thank you

    That's normal behavior for ImapIdleChannelAdapter because it is an event-driven component and is based on a scheduled task. If you would like to control a polling logic, consider to switch to regular MailReceivingMessageSource - Mail.imapInboundAdapter().

    You indeed can't close a folder after each message. You should do that during some idle period when no new messages for some time and nothing to process downstream.
