Ability to fetch only certain components instead of entire message?

Fetching messages is great, but sometimes I only want certain parameters, and it seems like a waste to download the entire message if I only want a few parameters. It’s also much faster to only download say, the subject, instead of the entire message if I’m only interested in the subject.

Does imap_tools support only fetching certain parameters for speed purposes?

I ideally would want the equivalent of:

a = mailbox.box.uid('fetch', "$UIDS", "BODY.PEEK[HEADER.FIELDS (SUBJECT)]")

You’re right. The speed is the same and I was confused from a different call. I’m going to go ahead and close this issue. Thanks for the help.
