Receiving messages by using the IMAP protocol

1. Start an IMAP session by using an emailIMAPSession variable and EmailStartSession.
   Example for starting a session by using an emailIMAPSession variable:
   
   // Start the messaging session
   MySession is emailIMAPSession
   MySession.ServerAddress = "pop.mycompany.us"
   MySession.Name = "user"
   MySession.Password = "secret"
   EmailStartSession(MySession)
   
2. Read the messages on the messaging server:
   • with the EmailGetAll function.
   • with a loop such as:
     Example that uses an Email variable:
     
     MyMessage is Email
     EmailReadFirst(MySession,MyMessage)
     WHILE NOT MyMessage.Out
     // Place the process of the message read...
     ...
     EmailReadNext(MySession, MyMessage)
     END
     
     Example that uses the Email structure:
     
     EmailReadFirst(MySession)
     WHILE NOT Email.Out
     // Place the process of the message read...
     ...
     EmailReadNext(MySession)
     END
   • or with a loop such as (the "NOT READ" keywords are optional and they allow you to browse only the unread messages or all the messages):
     
     MyMessage is Email
     FOR EACH MyMessage NOT READ OF MySession
     // Place the process of the message read...
     ...
     END
     
3. Close the IMAP session with EmailCloseSession.
