VB.NET Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

List IMAP Mailboxes with Reference

Demonstrates how to list all sub-mailboxes within a specified context. In this case, we list all mailboxes under "INBOX.vendors". VB.NET

Dim success As Boolean = False

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

Dim imap As New Chilkat.Imap

'  Connect to an IMAP server.
'  Use TLS
imap.Ssl = True
imap.Port = 993
success = imap.Connect("imap.example.com")
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


'  Login
success = imap.Login("admin@chilkatsoft.com","myPassword")
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


'  Get the list of mailboxes.
Dim refName As String = ""
Dim wildcardedMailbox As String = "*"
Dim subscribed As Boolean = False

Dim mboxes As New Chilkat.Mailboxes
success = imap.MbxList(subscribed,refName,wildcardedMailbox,mboxes)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


Dim i As Integer = 0
While i < mboxes.Count
    Debug.WriteLine(mboxes.GetName(i))
    i = i + 1
End While

'  Sample output looks like this:
'  INBOX.vendors.shareit
'  INBOX.vendors.paypal
'  INBOX.vendors.dell
'  INBOX.vendors.inMotion
'  INBOX.vendors.myhosting
'  INBOX.vendors.peer1

'  Disconnect from the IMAP server.
success = imap.Disconnect()
