# To use a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy, simply set the following
# properties prior to connecting with the IMAP server:
# The SOCKS hostname may be a domain name or 
# IP address:
$imap->put_SocksHostname("www.mysocksproxyserver.com");
$imap->put_SocksPort(1080);
$imap->put_SocksUsername("myProxyLogin");
$imap->put_SocksPassword("myProxyPassword");
# Set the SOCKS version to 4 or 5 based on the version
# of the SOCKS proxy server:
$imap->put_SocksVersion(5);
# Note: SOCKS4 servers only support usernames without passwords.
# SOCKS5 servers support full login/password authentication.

# Connect to an IMAP server through the SOCKS proxy.
# Use TLS
