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

        // The mailman object is used for sending and receiving email.
        MailMan mailman = new MailMan();

        // To connect through an HTTP proxy, set the HttpProxyHostname
        // and HttpProxyPort properties to the hostname (or IP address)
        // and port of the HTTP proxy.  Typical port numbers used by
        // HTTP proxy servers are 3128 and 8080.
        mailman.setHttpProxyHostname("www.my-http-proxy.com");
        mailman.setHttpProxyPort(3128);

        // Important:  Your HTTP proxy server must allow non-HTTP
        // traffic to pass.  Otherwise this does not work.

        // Set the SMTP server.
        mailman.setSmtpHost("smtp.chilkatsoft.com");

        // Set the SMTP login/password (if required)
        mailman.setSmtpUsername("myUsername");
        mailman.setSmtpPassword("myPassword");

        // Call SendEmail to connect to the SMTP server via the HTTP proxy and send.
        // The connection (i.e. session) to the SMTP server remains
        // open so that subsequent SendEmail calls may use the
        // same connection.

            return;
        }

        // Some SMTP servers do not actually send the email until
        // the connection is closed.  In these cases, it is necessary to
        // call CloseSmtpConnection for the mail to be  sent.
        // Most SMTP servers send the email immediately, and it is
        // not required to close the connection.  We'll close it here
        // for the example:
        try {
            mailman.closeSmtpConnection();
        } catch (ChilkatException e) {
            System.out.println("Connection to SMTP server not closed cleanly.");
