Research direction
Start at DefaultSerializer.java and CoreHttpProvider.java, where the reported stack trace shows response deserialization, and reproduce the mail-folder messages delta request using a large result set and $skiptoken. Compare the HTTP response body with the failure at $.value[7]. Done means the SDK handles the response without an uncontrolled JsonSyntaxException or clearly reports an incomplete response.

Problem Description
When invoking the delta query on a mail folder using $skiptoken, the response causes a JsonSyntaxException due to malformed or truncated JSON — specifically during deserialization of the response.
It consistently fails at $.value[7], suggesting an incomplete or malformed JSON payload returned by the API or a decoding issue inside the SDK.
Expected behavior
The SDK should either:
Deserialize the full JSON response correctly;
Or raise a controlled exception indicating an incomplete/malformed response from the API.
How to reproduce
Call delta() on a MailFolder with large volume of messages.
Use the returned $skiptoken for the next page.
Observe the failure in Gson during deserialization of response.
