Delete IMAP Email

To delete an email, the "Deleted" flag must be set to 1 for each message to be deleted. You must also call Expunge or ExpungeAndClose to remove the emails marked as deleted. Go

    success := false

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    // This example deletes email matching a criteria from Inbox.
    imap := chilkat.NewImap()

    // Turn on session logging:
    imap.SetKeepSessionLog(true)

    // Connect to an IMAP server.
    // Use TLS
    imap.SetSsl(true)
    imap.SetPort(993)
    success = imap.Connect("imap.example.com")
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(imap.LastErrorText())
        imap.DisposeImap()
        return
    }

    // Login
    success = imap.Login("myLogin","myPassword")
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(imap.LastErrorText())
        imap.DisposeImap()
        return
    }

    // Select an IMAP mailbox
    success = imap.SelectMailbox("Inbox")
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(imap.LastErrorText())
        imap.DisposeImap()
        return
    }

    fetchUids := true
    // Get the message IDs for all emails having "FTP2" in the subject.
    messageSet := chilkat.NewMessageSet()
    success = imap.QueryMbx("SUBJECT FTP2",fetchUids,messageSet)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(imap.LastErrorText())
        imap.DisposeImap()
        messageSet.DisposeMessageSet()
        return
    }

    // Set the Deleted flag for each message:
    success = imap.SetFlags(messageSet,"Deleted",1)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(imap.LastErrorText())
        imap.DisposeImap()
        messageSet.DisposeMessageSet()
        return
    }

    // Expunge and close the mailbox.
    success = imap.ExpungeAndClose()
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(imap.LastErrorText())
        imap.DisposeImap()
        messageSet.DisposeMessageSet()
        return
    }

    // Display the session log.
    fmt.Println(imap.SessionLog())

    // Disconnect from the IMAP server.
    success = imap.Disconnect()

    imap.DisposeImap()
    messageSet.DisposeMessageSet()
