Transition from Imap.Search to Imap.QueryMbx

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated Search method calls with QueryMbx. VB.NET

Dim success As Boolean = False

Dim imap As New Chilkat.Imap

' ...
' ...

Dim criteria As String = "FROM bob@example.com"
Dim bUid As Boolean = True

' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' The Search method is deprecated:

Dim msgSetObj As Chilkat.MessageSet = imap.Search(criteria,bUid)
If (imap.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


' ...
' ...



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

Dim mset As New Chilkat.MessageSet
success = imap.QueryMbx(criteria,bUid,mset)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(imap.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If
