Ben,

i just did a quick test with my local test mai server. This script for example would output the number of messages in the imap folder to the message box.

put tUSERNAME into pSettings["username"]
put put into pSettings["password"]
put "STATUS INBOX (MESSAGES)" into pRequest
put "imap://192.168.7.25" into pURL
put tsnetCustomSync(pURL,pRequest,xHeaders,rOutHeaders,rResult,rBytes,pSettings)

Did not try ssl, but should work also.


Regards,

Matthias
