Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

$success = $false

$imap = New-Object Chilkat.Imap

# ...
# ...

$searchCriteria = "FROM bob@example.com"
$bUid = $true
$sortCriteria = "DATE SUBJECT"

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The Sort method is deprecated:

$msgSetObj = $imap.Sort($sortCriteria,"UTF-8",$searchCriteria,$bUid)
if ($imap.LastMethodSuccess -eq $false) {
    $($imap.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# ...
# ...

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

# The following properties are used instead of function arguments.
$imap.SortCriteria = "DATE SUBJECT"
$imap.SearchCharset = "UTF-8"

$mset = New-Object Chilkat.MessageSet
$success = $imap.QueryMbx($searchCriteria,$bUid,$mset)
