import sys
import chilkat2

email = chilkat2.Email()

# ...

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The Clone method is deprecated:

# emailObj is a CkEmail
emailObj = email.Clone()
if (email.LastMethodSuccess == False):
    print(email.LastErrorText)
    sys.exit()

# ...

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Do the equivalent using MakeCopy.
# Your application creates a new, empty Email object which is passed 
# in the last argument and filled upon success.
