Hi!
I would like to know if there is a way to identify system folders (ex: inbox, sent items, etc.) in Zimbra. After having a closer look, it seems to me that they have an ID lower or equal to 16? Are the IDs always the same for system folders, regardless of language (ex: Japanese mailbox)? If IDs cannot be relied upon, how can we reliably identify which folders are system folder.
Thanks in advance for your answer,
Ralf
These are the folder id's that are defined in the source code:
and the code where they are created, showing their names:Code:public static final int ID_FOLDER_USER_ROOT = 1;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_INBOX = 2;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_TRASH = 3;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_SPAM = 4;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_SENT = 5;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_DRAFTS = 6;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_CONTACTS = 7;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_TAGS = 8;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_CONVERSATIONS = 9;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_CALENDAR = 10;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_ROOT = 11;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_NOTEBOOK = 12; // no longer created in new mailboxes since Helix (bug 39647). old mailboxes may still contain a system folder with id 12
public static final int ID_FOLDER_AUTO_CONTACTS = 13;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_IM_LOGS = 14;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_TASKS = 15;
public static final int ID_FOLDER_BRIEFCASE = 16;
So that being said, I don't think they are likely to just decide to change things around. :)Code:Folder root = Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_ROOT, this, null, "ROOT", hidden, MailItem.TYPE_UNKNOWN, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_TAGS, this, root, "Tags", hidden, MailItem.TYPE_TAG, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_CONVERSATIONS, this, root, "Conversations", hidden, MailItem.TYPE_CONVERSATION, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
byte system = Folder.FOLDER_IS_IMMUTABLE;
Folder userRoot = Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_USER_ROOT, this, root, "USER_ROOT", system, MailItem.TYPE_UNKNOWN, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_INBOX, this, userRoot, "Inbox", system, MailItem.TYPE_MESSAGE, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_TRASH, this, userRoot, "Trash", system, MailItem.TYPE_UNKNOWN, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_SPAM, this, userRoot, "Junk", system, MailItem.TYPE_MESSAGE, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_SENT, this, userRoot, "Sent", system, MailItem.TYPE_MESSAGE, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_DRAFTS, this, userRoot, "Drafts", system, MailItem.TYPE_MESSAGE, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_CONTACTS, this, userRoot, "Contacts", system, MailItem.TYPE_CONTACT, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_CALENDAR, this, userRoot, "Calendar", system, MailItem.TYPE_APPOINTMENT, Flag.BITMASK_CHECKED, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_TASKS, this, userRoot, "Tasks", system, MailItem.TYPE_TASK, Flag.BITMASK_CHECKED, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_AUTO_CONTACTS, this, userRoot, "Emailed Contacts", system, MailItem.TYPE_CONTACT, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_IM_LOGS, this, userRoot, "Chats", system, MailItem.TYPE_MESSAGE, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Folder.create(ID_FOLDER_BRIEFCASE, this, userRoot, "Briefcase", system, MailItem.TYPE_DOCUMENT, 0, MailItem.DEFAULT_COLOR_RGB, null, null);
Awsome!
Thank you for your quick answer.
