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

Chilkat.Imap imap = new Chilkat.Imap();

// Turn on session logging:
imap.KeepSessionLog = true;

// Connect to GMail
// Use TLS
imap.Ssl = true;
imap.Port = 993;
bool success = imap.Connect("imap.gmail.com");
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Login
// Your login is typically your GMail email address.
success = imap.Login("username@gmail.com","myPassword");
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Select an IMAP mailbox
success = imap.SelectMailbox("Inbox");
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Show the session log.
Debug.WriteLine(imap.SessionLog);

// The session log will look like this:
