* The ListMailboxes method returns a Mailboxes object
* that contains the collection of mailboxes.
* It accepts two arguments: a refName and a wildcardedMailbox.

lcRefName = ""
* refName is usually set to an empty string.
* A non-empty reference name argument is the name of a mailbox or a level of
* mailbox hierarchy, and indicates the context in which the mailbox
* name is interpreted.

* Select all mailboxes matching this pattern:

lcWildcardedMailbox = "*"

loMboxes = loImap.ListMailboxes(lcRefName,lcWildcardedMailbox)
IF (loMboxes = NULL ) THEN
    =MESSAGEBOX(loImap.LastErrorText)
    QUIT
ENDIF

FOR i = 0 TO loMboxes.Count - 1
    ? loMboxes.GetName(i)
NEXT

* INBOX.vendors.shareit
* INBOX.oldSupport
