#  Connect to an IMAP server.
#  Use TLS
imap.put_Ssl(True)
imap.put_Port(993)

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 = "*"
