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

loImap = CreateObject('Chilkat.Imap')

* Connect to an IMAP server.
* Use TLS
loImap.Ssl = 1
loImap.Port = 993
lnSuccess = loImap.Connect("imap.example.com")
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loImap
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Login
lnSuccess = loImap.Login("myLogin","myPassword")
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loImap.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loImap
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* First examine the already subscribed mailboxes.
