Append a MIME Message to an IMAP Mailbox

See more IMAP Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat Imap.AppendMime method, which uploads a complete RFC 822/MIME message to a mailbox. The first argument is the destination mailbox name and the second is the MIME text. This example obtains the MIME from an Email object and uploads it to Drafts.
