Secure IMAP over TLS/SSL

To communicate with an IMAP server over TLS/SSL, simply set the Ssl and Port properties. The remainder of your code is the same as with non-SSL. Xojo Plugin

Dim success As Boolean
success = 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

// To use a secure TLS/SSL connection, set the Ssl property and the port:
imap.Ssl = True
// The typical port for IMAP SSL is 993
imap.Port = 993

// Connect to an IMAP server.
success = imap.Connect("imap.example.com")
If (success = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(imap.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// Login
success = imap.Login("myLogin","myPassword")
If (success = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(imap.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// Select an IMAP mailbox
success = imap.SelectMailbox("Inbox")
If (success = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(imap.LastErrorText)
    Return

// Fetch the emails into a bundle object:
Dim bundle As New Chilkat.EmailBundle
Dim headersOnly As Boolean
headersOnly = False
success = imap.FetchMsgSet(headersOnly,messageSet,bundle)
If (success = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(imap.LastErrorText)

    System.DebugLog(email.Subject)
    System.DebugLog("--")
    i = i + 1

// Disconnect from the IMAP server.
