*  Anything unlocks the component and begins a fully-functional 30-day trial.
lnSuccess = loImap.UnlockComponent("Anything for 30-day trial")
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    =MESSAGEBOX(loImap.LastErrorText)
    QUIT
ENDIF

*  To connect through an HTTP proxy, set the HttpProxyHostname
*  and HttpProxyPort properties to the hostname (or IP address)
*  and port of the HTTP proxy.  Typical port numbers used by
*  HTTP proxy servers are 3128 and 8080.
loImap.HttpProxyHostname = "www.myhttpproxy.com"
loImap.HttpProxyPort = 3128

*  Important:  Your HTTP proxy server must allow non-HTTP
*  traffic to pass.  Otherwise this does not work.

*  Connect to an IMAP server through the HTTP proxy.
lnSuccess = loImap.Connect("mail.chilkatsoft.com")
