Secure IMAP over TLS/SSL

To communicate with an IMAP server over TLS/SSL, simply set the Ssl and Port properties. The remainder of your code is the same as with non-SSL. Lianja

llSuccess = .F.

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

loImap = createobject("CkImap")

// To use a secure TLS/SSL connection, set the Ssl property and the port:
loImap.Ssl = .T.
// The typical port for IMAP SSL is 993
loImap.Port = 993

// Connect to an IMAP server.
llSuccess = loImap.Connect("imap.example.com")
if (llSuccess = .F.) then
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    release loImap
    return
endif

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

// Select an IMAP mailbox
llSuccess = loImap.SelectMailbox("Inbox")
if (llSuccess = .F.) then
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    release loImap
    return
endif

// Get the message IDs of all the emails in the mailbox
llFetchUids = .T.
loMessageSet = createobject("CkMessageSet")
llSuccess = loImap.QueryMbx("ALL",llFetchUids,loMessageSet)
if (llSuccess = .F.) then
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    release loImap
    release loMessageSet
    return
endif

// Fetch the emails into a bundle object:
loBundle = createobject("CkEmailBundle")
llHeadersOnly = .F.
llSuccess = loImap.FetchMsgSet(llHeadersOnly,loMessageSet,loBundle)
if (llSuccess = .F.) then
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    release loImap
    release loMessageSet
    release loBundle
    return
endif

// Loop over the bundle and display the FROM and SUBJECT of each.
loEmail = createobject("CkEmail")
i = 0
lnNumEmails = loBundle.MessageCount
do while i < lnNumEmails
    loBundle.EmailAt(i,loEmail)

    ? loEmail.From
    ? loEmail.Subject
    ? "--"
    i = i + 1
enddo

// Disconnect from the IMAP server.
llSuccess = loImap.Disconnect()
