var imap = new CkImap();

// Turn on session logging:
imap.KeepSessionLog = true;

// Connect to GMail
// Use TLS
imap.Ssl = true;
imap.Port = 993;
success = imap.Connect("imap.gmail.com");
if (success !== true) {
    console.log(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Login
// Your login is typically your GMail email address.
success = imap.Login("username@gmail.com","myPassword");
if (success !== true) {
    console.log(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Select an IMAP mailbox
success = imap.SelectMailbox("Inbox");
if (success !== true) {
    console.log(imap.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Show the session log.
console.log(imap.SessionLog);

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