Delphi ActiveX

List IMAP Mailboxes with Reference

Demonstrates how to list all sub-mailboxes within a specified context. In this case, we list all mailboxes under "INBOX.vendors". Delphi ActiveX

uses
    Winapi.Windows, Winapi.Messages, System.SysUtils, System.Variants, System.Classes, Vcl.Graphics,
    Vcl.Controls, Vcl.Forms, Vcl.Dialogs, Vcl.StdCtrls, Chilkat_TLB;

...

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
success: Integer;
imap: TChilkatImap;
refName: WideString;
wildcardedMailbox: WideString;
subscribed: Integer;
mboxes: TMailboxes;
i: Integer;

begin
success := 0;

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

imap := TChilkatImap.Create(Self);

// Connect to an IMAP server.
// Use TLS
imap.Ssl := 1;
imap.Port := 993;
success := imap.Connect('imap.example.com');
if (success = 0) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(imap.LastErrorText);
    Exit;
  end;

// Login
success := imap.Login('admin@chilkatsoft.com','myPassword');
if (success = 0) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(imap.LastErrorText);
    Exit;
  end;

// Get the list of mailboxes.
refName := '';
wildcardedMailbox := '*';
subscribed := 0;

mboxes := TMailboxes.Create(Self);
success := imap.MbxList(subscribed,refName,wildcardedMailbox,mboxes.ControlInterface);
if (success = 0) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(imap.LastErrorText);
    Exit;
  end;

i := 0;
while i < mboxes.Count do
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(mboxes.GetName(i));
    i := i + 1;
  end;

// Sample output looks like this:
// INBOX.vendors.shareit
// INBOX.vendors.paypal
// INBOX.vendors.dell
// INBOX.vendors.inMotion
// INBOX.vendors.myhosting
// INBOX.vendors.peer1

// Disconnect from the IMAP server.
success := imap.Disconnect();
end;
