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". Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

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

$imap = chilkat::CkImap->new();

# Connect to an IMAP server.
# Use TLS
$imap->put_Ssl(1);
$imap->put_Port(993);
$success = $imap->Connect("imap.example.com");
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# Login
$success = $imap->Login('admin@chilkatsoft.com',"myPassword");
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# Get the list of mailboxes.
$refName = "";
$wildcardedMailbox = "*";
$subscribed = 0;

$mboxes = chilkat::CkMailboxes->new();
$success = $imap->MbxList($subscribed,$refName,$wildcardedMailbox,$mboxes);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

$i = 0;
while ($i < $mboxes->get_Count()) {
    print $mboxes->getName($i) . "\r\n";
    $i = $i + 1;
}

# 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();
