NODEJS_PRELUDE

function chilkatExample() {

    var success = false;

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

    var imap = new chilkat.Imap();

    imap.Ssl = true;
    imap.Port = 993;

    // Connect to an IMAP server.
    success = imap.Connect("imap.gmail.com");
    if (success !== true) {
        console.log(imap.LastErrorText);
        return;
    }

    // Login
    success = imap.Login("myLogin","myPassword");
    if (success !== true) {
        console.log(imap.LastErrorText);
        return;
    }

    // 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.
    success = imap.CreateMailbox("newFolder");
    if (success !== true) {
        console.log(imap.LastErrorText);
        return;
    }

    // (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.
    success = imap.CreateMailbox("newFolder/subFolder_A");
    if (success !== true) {
        console.log(imap.LastErrorText);
        return;
    }

    console.log("Success.");
