New submission from biny <[email protected]>:

The imap4.getLineCount method used by imap4.getBodyStructure calculates the line count always from the body. This causes a need to fetch the body in a proxy or gateway while the line count can be available without the body.

For example NNTP protocol can give the line count without needing to retrieve the body.
