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

$imap = New-Object Chilkat.Imap

# Turn on session logging:
$imap.KeepSessionLog = $true

# Connect to GMail
# Use TLS
$imap.Ssl = $true
$imap.Port = 993
$success = $imap.Connect("imap.gmail.com")
if ($success -ne $true) {
    $($imap.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# Login
# Your login is typically your GMail email address.
$success = $imap.Login("username@gmail.com","myPassword")
if ($success -ne $true) {
    $($imap.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# Select an IMAP mailbox
$success = $imap.SelectMailbox("Inbox")
if ($success -ne $true) {
    $($imap.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# Show the session log.
$($imap.SessionLog)

# The session log will look like this:
