There're four mails in my mail box.Two of them are recent.Now,I want output a message that states how many new mails are in my box.But the output message always says there is no new mail(the variable newMailTotal always be "0").My code is below:

Message[] mList = mFolder.getMessages();

int newMailTotal = 0;

for(int i = 0; i

if( mList[i].getFlags().contains(Flags.Flag.RECENT) ) {

newMailTotal++;

}

}

System.out.println("your have "+newMailTotal+" new mails.");
