// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

CkoImap *imap = [[CkoImap alloc] init];

// To connect through an HTTP proxy, set the HttpProxyHostname
// and HttpProxyPort properties to the hostname (or IP address)
// and port of the HTTP proxy.  Typical port numbers used by
// HTTP proxy servers are 3128 and 8080.
imap.HttpProxyHostname = @"www.myhttpproxy.com";
imap.HttpProxyPort = [NSNumber numberWithInt:3128];

// Important:  Your HTTP proxy server must allow non-HTTP
// traffic to pass.  Otherwise this does not work.

// Connect to an IMAP server through the HTTP proxy.
// Use TLS
imap.Ssl = YES;
imap.Port = [NSNumber numberWithInt:993];
BOOL success = [imap Connect: @"imap.someMailServer.com"];
if (success != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",imap.LastErrorText);
