Create Email Folder (sub-Mailbox)

How to create a new email folder (sub-mailbox). (In GMail, folders are called "labels". This example would create a new "label" in GMail.) Zig

const std = @import("std");
const chilkat = @import("chilkat");

pub fn main(init: std.process.Init) !void {
    const alloc = init.arena.allocator();

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

    const imap = try chilkat.Imap.init();
    defer imap.deinit();

    imap.setSsl(true);
    imap.setPort(993);

    // Connect to an IMAP server.
    imap.connect("imap.gmail.com") catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try imap.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    // Login
    imap.login("myLogin", "myPassword") catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try imap.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    // Create the new email folder (sub-mailbox) on the IMAP server.
    // If no folder path is provided, the new folder is a sub-mailbox of Inbox.
    imap.createMailbox("newFolder") catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try imap.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    // (In GMail, folders are called "labels".
    // This example would create a new "label" in GMail.)

    // Now create a sub-folder under "newFolder".
    // Make sure to use the proper separator char for your IMAP server.
    // The separator char used here is "/".   It is typically "/" or ".".
    // The SeparatorChar property contains the separator char
    // that should be used for the current IMAP session.
    imap.createMailbox("newFolder/subFolder_A") catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try imap.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    std.debug.print("Success.\n", .{});
