import sys

mailman = chilkat2.MailMan()

# ...
# ...

filePath = "c:/test/example.mbx"

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The LoadMbx method is deprecated:

# bundleObj is a CkEmailBundle
bundleObj = mailman.LoadMbx(filePath)
if (mailman.LastMethodSuccess == False):
    print(mailman.LastErrorText)
    sys.exit()

# ...
# ...

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

bundleOut = chilkat2.EmailBundle()
success = mailman.LoadMbxFile(filePath,bundleOut)
if (success == False):
