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

imap = chilkat.CkImap()

# 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
imap.put_Ssl(True)
imap.put_Port(993)
success = imap.Connect("imap.someMailServer.com")

    print(imap.lastErrorText())

# Login
success = imap.Login("myLogin","myPassword")

    sys.exit()

# Select an IMAP mailbox
success = imap.SelectMailbox("Inbox")
if (success != True):
    print(imap.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

# We can choose to fetch UIDs or sequence numbers.
fetchUids = True
# Get the message IDs of all the emails in the mailbox
# messageSet is a CkMessageSet
messageSet = imap.Search("ALL",fetchUids)
if (imap.get_LastMethodSuccess() == False):
    print(imap.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

# Fetch the emails into a bundle object:

# bundle is a CkEmailBundle
bundle = imap.FetchBundle(messageSet)

    print(imap.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

# Loop over the bundle and display the FROM and SUBJECT of each.
