def listMessages(index=None): (source)

Retrieve the size of a message, or, if none is specified, the size of each message in the mailbox.

Parameters	index	The 0-based index of the message. (type: `int` or `None`)
Returns	The number of octets in the specified message, or, if an index is not specified, a sequence of the number of octets for all messages in the mailbox or a deferred which fires with one of those. Any value which corresponds to a deleted message is set to 0. (type: `int`, sequence of `int`, or `Deferred`)
Raises	ValueError or IndexError	When the index does not correspond to a message in the mailbox. The use of ValueError is preferred.

def getMessage(index): (source)

Retrieve a file containing the contents of a message.

Parameters	index	The 0-based index of a message. (type: `int`)
Returns	A file containing the message. (type: file-like object)
Raises	ValueError or IndexError	When the index does not correspond to a message in the mailbox. The use of ValueError is preferred.

Any message which can be undeleted should be returned to its original position in the message sequence and retain its original UID.
