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();

    // Connect to an IMAP server.
    // Use TLS
    imap.Ssl = true;
    imap.Port = 993;
    success = imap.Connect("imap.example.com");
    if (success == false) {
        console.log(imap.LastErrorText);
        return;
    }

    // Login
    success = imap.Login("admin@chilkatsoft.com","myPassword");
    if (success == false) {
        console.log(imap.LastErrorText);
        return;

    // Get the list of mailboxes.
    var refName = "";

    var mboxes = new chilkat.Mailboxes();

    }

    var i = 0;
    while (i < mboxes.Count) {
        console.log(mboxes.GetName(i));
        i = i+1;
    }

    // Sample output looks like this:
    // INBOX.vendors.shareit
    // INBOX.vendors.paypal
    // INBOX.vendors.dell
    // INBOX.vendors.inMotion
    // INBOX.vendors.myhosting
