Using Client Certificate w/ IMAP SSL

Demonstrates how to use a client-side certificate with an IMAP SSL connection. The SetSslClientCert method is called to specify a certificate to be used for the SSL connection. Tcl

load ./chilkat.dll

set success 0

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

set imap [new_CkImap]

# To use a secure SSL connection, set SSL and the port:
CkImap_put_Ssl $imap 1
# The typical port for IMAP SSL is 993
CkImap_put_Port $imap 993

# Load a certificate from a PFX file and use it.
# Note: Other methods are available to load pre-installed
# certificates from registry-based certificate stores.

# Create an instance of a certificate store object, load a PFX file,
# locate the certificate we need, and use it for signing.
# (a PFX file may contain more than one certificate.)
set certStore [new_CkCertStore]

# The 1st argument is the filename, the 2nd arg is the 
# PFX file's password:
