Store One or More Flags on a Single Message

See more IMAP Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat Imap.StoreFlags method, which sets or clears one or more flags on a single message identified by ID. The first argument is the message ID, the second (bUid) selects UID vs sequence number, the third is a space-separated list of flag names, and the fourth is the value (1 to set, 0 to clear). This example applies the Seen and Flagged flags to one message by UID.

// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.
