Sample Notes

This sample uses the IMAP4 component to log into a mailbox and display the subject of each message. The subject is obtained from the IMAP envelope of the message, so no parsing is required to get this information. IMAP envelopes also contain other 'header' information such as the mesasge sender, recipients, date, etc...

//create a new IMAP4 object, connect
//to a IMAP4 server and login
IMAP4 imap = new IMAP4();
imap.Connect("mail.yourdomain.com");
imap.Login("mailbox", "password");

//select the inbox and download the envelopes
imap.SelectMailbox("Inbox");
EnvelopeCollection imapEnvelopes;
imapEnvelopes = imap.GetEnvelopes();

//loop through each message
//and output the subject
foreach (Envelope imapEnvelope in imapEnvelopes)
{
//write the subject out to the console
Console.WriteLine(imapEnvelope.Subject);
}

//close resources
imap.Logout();
