List the mailboxes available within an IMAP account. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

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

    let imap = CkoImap()!

    // Connect to an IMAP server.
    // Use TLS
    imap.ssl = true
    imap.port = 993
    success = imap.connect(hostname: "MY-IMAP-DOMAIN")
    if success == false {
        print("\(imap.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // Login
    success = imap.login(login: "MY-IMAP-LOGIN", password: "MY-IMAP-PASSWORD")
    if success == false {
        print("\(imap.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    var refName: String? = ""
    // refName is usually set to an empty string.
    // A non-empty reference name argument is the name of a mailbox or a level of
    // mailbox hierarchy, and indicates the context in which the mailbox
    // name is interpreted.

    // Select all mailboxes matching this pattern:
    var wildcardedMailbox: String? = "*"

    var subscribed: Bool = false

    let mboxes = CkoMailboxes()!
    success = imap.mbxList(subscribed: subscribed, reference: refName, mbxPattern: wildcardedMailbox, mboxes: mboxes)
    if success == false {
        print("\(imap.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    var i: Int = 0
    while i < mboxes.count.intValue {
        print("\(mboxes.getName(index: i)!)")
        i = i + 1
