IMAP Control

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

The IMAP Control is used to communicate with IMAP servers using the Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP).

Syntax

IMAP

Remarks

The IMAP Control supports both plaintext and Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) connections (RFC 2595). When connecting over Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) the SSLServerAuthentication event allows you to check the server identity and other security attributes. The SSLStatus event provides information about the SSL handshake. Additional SSL-related settings are also supported through the Config method.

The IMAP Control implements a standard IMAP client as specified in RFC 1730 and RFC 2060.

The first step in using the control is specifying a MailServer, a User to connect as, and a Password to authenticate with. After that, one or more requests may be sent to the server via the control's methods. Results are retrieved through events and a number of key properties.

Normally, after connecting to the server, a Mailbox is selected (or examined) using the ExamineMailbox method. After the Mailbox is selected, MessageCount and RecentMessageCount show the number of messages in the mailbox, and MailboxFlags show the flags pertaining to the mailbox.

A number of operations may be performed by the server in response to commands sent using the control's methods. The primary arguments for most commands are the Mailbox property and the MessageSet property. The MessageSet property denotes either a single message, or a range of messages. Other arguments are specified through other properties, such as SortCriteria and MessageFlags.

Responses are received through events, such as MessageInfo and MailboxList, and also are reflected to properties, such as MessageText and MessageSubject.

The MessagePart event describes the MIME structure of the retrieved messages. One MessagePart event is fired for every message part, giving information about the particular part. Later on, message parts may be retrieved separately through the RetrieveMessagePart method. This speeds up processing by avoiding the need to retrieve full messages from the server.

The PITrail event traces the interaction between the client and the server. It includes all exchanges except for transfers of messages, message parts, and message headers.

Syntax

imapcontrol.StartIdle 

Remarks

This method sends the IDLE command to the server and begins idling. As responses are received from the server the IdleInfo event fires. To stop idling, call StopIdle.

If the control is being used in a formless application (such as a console application) be sure to call DoEvents in a loop after calling this method to ensure that incoming events are processed.

StopIdle Method (IMAP Control)

This method stops idling.

Syntax

imapcontrol.StopIdle 

Remarks

This method stops idling if it was previously started via StartIdle. If the control is not idling, this method does nothing.

Syntax

Sub imapcontrol_SSLServerAuthentication(CertEncoded As String, CertSubject As String, CertIssuer As String, Status As String, Accept As Boolean)

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

SSLStatus Event (IMAP Control)

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

Sub imapcontrol_SSLStatus(Message As String)

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

Transfer Event (IMAP Control)

This event is fired while the message is transferred from the MailServer .

Syntax

Sub imapcontrol_Transfer(Direction As Integer, BytesTransferred As Long64, PercentDone As Integer, Text As String)

Remarks

The Transfer event is fired for every incoming line when receiving a message or part data from the MailServer

The Text parameter contains the portion of the message or the part data being retrieved.

The BytesTransferred parameter contains the number of bytes transferred since the beginning of the message, including header bytes. At the end of transmission (i.e., when the last Transfer event is fired), BytesTransferred equals the value of the MessageSize property.

The Transfer event is fired for every line of the message. There is no terminating newline at the end of the Text parameter. A faster way to retrieve a message is to assign a value to the LocalFile property and use the Transfer event to check the progress only rather than to get the actual data.

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

The PercentDone parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If PercentDone can not be calculated the value will be -1.

Note: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.
