List the mailboxes available within an IMAP account. C#

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

//  Connect to an IMAP server.
//  Use TLS
imap.Ssl = true;

//  Login

    Debug.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText);

string refName = "";
//  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:
string wildcardedMailbox = "*";
