Append MIME with Initial IMAP Flags
See more IMAP Examples
Demonstrates the Chilkat Imap.AppendMimeWithFlags method, which uploads a MIME message and sets its initial system flags. The first argument is the mailbox and the second is the MIME text. The third through sixth arguments control \Seen, \Flagged, \Answered, and \Draft respectively — pass true to set a flag. This example uploads a message that is already marked read.
Background: When importing or archiving mail you frequently want the uploaded message to arrive in a particular state — already read, pre-flagged, or marked as a draft. Setting the flags at append time is a single operation, avoiding a second
STORE round trip. These explicit arguments take precedence over the AppendSeen property.Chilkat Go Downloads
