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

    imap := chilkat.NewImap()

    // Connect to an IMAP server.
    // Use TLS
    imap.SetSsl(true)
    imap.SetPort(993)

    // The ListMailboxes method returns a Mailboxes object
    // that contains the collection of mailboxes.
    // It accepts two arguments: a refName and a wildcardedMailbox.

    refName := ""
    // refName is usually set to an empty string.
    // A non-empty reference name argument is the name of a mailbox or a level of
    // mailbox hierarchy, and indicates the context in which the mailbox
    // name is interpreted.

    // Select all mailboxes matching this pattern:
    wildcardedMailbox := "*"

    mboxes := imap.ListMailboxes(refName,wildcardedMailbox)
    if imap.LastMethodSuccess() == false {
        fmt.Println(imap.LastErrorText())

    i := 0
    for i < mboxes.Count() {
        fmt.Println(*mboxes.GetName(i))
        i = i + 1
