Route IMAP Through an Existing Ssh Connection

See more IMAP Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat Imap.UseSsh method, which uses an already connected and authenticated Ssh object as the transport for IMAP connections. The only argument is the Ssh object. Call it before Connect. This example establishes the SSH connection separately, then routes IMAP through it.
