Create Email Folder (sub-Mailbox)

How to create a new email folder (sub-mailbox). (In GMail, folders are called "labels". This example would create a new "label" in GMail.) Lianja

llSuccess = .F.

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

loImap = createobject("CkImap")

loImap.Ssl = .T.
loImap.Port = 993

// Connect to an IMAP server.
llSuccess = loImap.Connect("imap.gmail.com")
if (llSuccess <> .T.) then
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    release loImap
    return
endif

// Login
llSuccess = loImap.Login("myLogin","myPassword")
if (llSuccess <> .T.) then
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    release loImap
    return
endif

// Create the new email folder (sub-mailbox) on the IMAP server.
// If no folder path is provided, the new folder is a sub-mailbox of Inbox.
llSuccess = loImap.CreateMailbox("newFolder")
if (llSuccess <> .T.) then
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    release loImap
    return
endif

// (In GMail, folders are called "labels".  
// This example would create a new "label" in GMail.)

// Now create a sub-folder under "newFolder".
// Make sure to use the proper separator char for your IMAP server.
// The separator char used here is "/".   It is typically "/" or ".".
// The SeparatorChar property contains the separator char
// that should be used for the current IMAP session.
