IMAP: Support non-numeric nested body section specifiers
trafficstars
A body section specifier can contain various types such as HEADER, MIME, etc. While most part specifiers are handled separatedly, only numeric section specifiers such as BODY[2.1] are currently supported. Complex ones such as BODY[2.1.HEADER] are currently not supported.
The RFC lists the following examples:
HEADER ([RFC-2822] header of the message)
TEXT ([RFC-2822] text body of the message) MULTIPART/MIXED
1 TEXT/PLAIN
2 APPLICATION/OCTET-STREAM
3 MESSAGE/RFC822
3.HEADER ([RFC-2822] header of the message)
3.TEXT ([RFC-2822] text body of the message) MULTIPART/MIXED
3.1 TEXT/PLAIN
3.2 APPLICATION/OCTET-STREAM
4 MULTIPART/MIXED
4.1 IMAGE/GIF
4.1.MIME ([MIME-IMB] header for the IMAGE/GIF)
4.2 MESSAGE/RFC822
4.2.HEADER ([RFC-2822] header of the message)
4.2.TEXT ([RFC-2822] text body of the message) MULTIPART/MIXED
4.2.1 TEXT/PLAIN
4.2.2 MULTIPART/ALTERNATIVE
4.2.2.1 TEXT/PLAIN
4.2.2.2 TEXT/RICHTEXT
The FetchParser should support nested body specifiers such as 4.2.HEADER.
Hi, I've already worked on this and I may do a pull request with the relevant changes, if it may be helpful.
Looking forward to that!
