Create Email Folder (sub-Mailbox)

How to create a new email folder (sub-mailbox). (In GMail, folders are called "labels". This example would create a new "label" in GMail.) Dart

import 'package:chilkat/chilkat.dart';

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

  final imap = CkImap();

  imap.ssl = true;
  imap.port = 993;

  // Connect to an IMAP server.
  try {
    imap.connect('imap.gmail.com');
  } on ChilkatException catch (e) {
    print(e.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  // Login
  try {
    imap.login('myLogin', 'myPassword');
  } on ChilkatException catch (e) {
    print(e.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  // Create the new email folder (sub-mailbox) on the IMAP server.
  // If no folder path is provided, the new folder is a sub-mailbox of Inbox.
  try {
    imap.createMailbox('newFolder');
  } on ChilkatException catch (e) {
    print(e.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  // (In GMail, folders are called "labels".  
  // This example would create a new "label" in GMail.)

  // Now create a sub-folder under "newFolder".
  // Make sure to use the proper separator char for your IMAP server.
  // The separator char used here is "/".   It is typically "/" or ".".
  // The SeparatorChar property contains the separator char
  // that should be used for the current IMAP session.
  try {
    imap.createMailbox('newFolder/subFolder_A');
  } on ChilkatException catch (e) {
    print(e.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  print('Success.');
