How to sort an email bundle.

Chilkat.Imap imap = new Chilkat.Imap();

bool success;

// Anything unlocks the component and begins a fully-functional 30-day trial.
success = imap.UnlockComponent("Anything for 30-day trial");
if (success != true) {
    MessageBox.Show(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Connect to an IMAP server.
success = imap.Connect("mail.chilkatsoft.com");
if (success != true) {
    MessageBox.Show(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Login
success = imap.Login("admin@chilkatsoft.com","*myPassword5*");
if (success != true) {
    MessageBox.Show(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Select an IMAP mailbox
success = imap.SelectMailbox("Inbox");
if (success != true) {
    MessageBox.Show(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

Chilkat.MessageSet messageSet;
// We can choose to fetch UIDs or sequence numbers.
bool fetchUids;
fetchUids = true;

// Pass any of the above strings here to test a search:
messageSet = imap.Search("ALL",fetchUids);
if (messageSet == null ) {
    MessageBox.Show(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Fetch the email headers into a bundle object:
Chilkat.EmailBundle bundle;
bundle = imap.FetchHeaders(messageSet);
if (bundle == null ) {

    MessageBox.Show(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Sort the email bundle by date, recipient, sender, or subject:
bool ascending;
ascending = true;
bundle.SortByDate(ascending);

// To sort by recipient, sender, or subject, call
// SortBySender, SortByRecipient, or SortBySubject.

// Display the Subject and From of each email.
int i;
for (i = 0; i <= bundle.MessageCount - 1; i++) {
    Chilkat.Email email;
    email = bundle.GetEmail(i);

    textBox1.Text += email.GetHeaderField("Date") + "\r\n";
    textBox1.Refresh();
    textBox1.Text += email.Subject + "\r\n";
    textBox1.Refresh();
    textBox1.Text += email.From + "\r\n";
    textBox1.Refresh();
    textBox1.Text += "--" + "\r\n";
    textBox1.Refresh();

}

// Disconnect from the IMAP server.
imap.Disconnect();
