    // After selecting a mailbox, the NumMessages property will
    // be updated to reflect the total number of emails in the mailbox:

    // The emails in the mailbox will always have sequence numbers
    // ranging from 1 to NumMessages.

    // This example will copy the first 10 messages using sequence numbers

    }

    // Disconnect from the IMAP servers.
    success = imapSrc.Disconnect();
    success = imapDest.Disconnect();
