* This class notifies changes in the number of messages in a folder.

* only notify the client of MessageCountEvents when a client issues a
* new command. Refer to
* RFC 3501
* for details.
* A client may want to "poll" the folder by occasionally calling the
* {@link javax.mail.Folder#getMessageCount getMessageCount} or
* {@link javax.mail.Folder#isOpen isOpen} methods
* to solicit any such notifications.
