In matlab, how can I delete an email using JavaMail API's "Flags"?

Hi all:

I am trying to read emails in matlab, and this can be achieved by using a Java component called JavaMail API. I already succeed in loading the information of email, however, I have problem with marking the processed email as "READ" OR " Deleted".

After running the following code, there will always be an error message:

setFlags(Flags.Flag.DELETED,true);

Error messgae: "No appropriate method, property, or field Flag for class javax.mail.Flags."

I am very sure that "Flag" is a class of javax.mail.Flags. Is there anyone else here having similar problems before? It will be appreciated if you could give me some guidance/suggestions. Thanks a lot.

Kind Regards, Fred
