end

#  To use a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy, simply set the following
#  properties prior to connecting with the IMAP server:
#  The SOCKS hostname may be a domain name or
#  IP address:
imap.put_SocksHostname("www.mysocksproxyserver.com")
imap.put_SocksPort(1080)
imap.put_SocksUsername("myProxyLogin")
imap.put_SocksPassword("myProxyPassword")
#  Set the SOCKS version to 4 or 5 based on the version
#  of the SOCKS proxy server:
imap.put_SocksVersion(5)
#  Note: SOCKS4 servers only support usernames without passwords.
#  SOCKS5 servers support full login/password authentication.

#  Connect to an IMAP server through the SOCKS proxy.
