# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The GetAllUids method is deprecated:

# msgSetObj is a CkMessageSet
msgSetObj = imap.GetAllUids()
if (imap.get_LastMethodSuccess() == False):
    print(imap.lastErrorText())
    sys.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.
