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". VBScript

Dim fso, outFile
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
'Create a Unicode (utf-16) output text file.
Set outFile = fso.CreateTextFile("output.txt", True, True)

success = 0

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

set imap = CreateObject("Chilkat.Imap")

' Connect to an IMAP server.
' Use TLS
imap.Ssl = 1
imap.Port = 993
success = imap.Connect("imap.example.com")
If (success = 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If

' Login
success = imap.Login("admin@chilkatsoft.com","myPassword")
If (success = 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If

' Get the list of mailboxes.
refName = ""
wildcardedMailbox = "*"
subscribed = 0

set mboxes = CreateObject("Chilkat.Mailboxes")
success = imap.MbxList(subscribed,refName,wildcardedMailbox,mboxes)
If (success = 0) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText)
    WScript.Quit
End If

i = 0
Do While i < mboxes.Count
    outFile.WriteLine(mboxes.GetName(i))
    i = i + 1
Loop

' 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()

outFile.Close
