EmailListFolder doesn't return folderType

Hello,

I am using the EmailListFolder command with the option LstFolderType in an IMAP session but it doesn't returns me the folder types.
I checked this with several email providers but always the same result. Only the folder names are returned.
Does anyone have the same problem?

Regards
Frank

From my testing [WD22] it only works for OUTLOOK sessions not for IMAP.


with this code it works:
nOutlookSessionID is int=EmailStartOutlookSession("outlook")

IF nOutlookSessionID=0 THEN
Error("error in open",ErrorInfo())
RETURN
END
trace(EmailListFolder(nOutlookSessionID,LstFolderAll+LstFolderType))
EmailCloseSession(nOutlookSessionID)

With this one it doesn't:
IF NOT EmailStartIMAPSession("xxxxxx@gruposoft.com","*******", "**.**.**.**") THEN
Error("error in open",ErrorInfo())
RETURN
END
trace(EmailListFolder("xxxxxx@gruposoft.com",LstFolderAll+LstFolderType))
EmailCloseSession("xxxxxx@gruposoft.com")

Hi Paulo,

yes thats the same experience as mine.
But the WinDev help says something else:

Quote

MySession is EmailIMAPSession
...
// List of folders
FolderList = EmailListFolder(MySession, LstFolderAll + LstFolderType)
// FolderList contains for example:
// "Personal folders" + TAB + folderPersonal + CR + ...
// "Personal folders\Inbox" + ...
// TAB + folderInbox + CR + ...
// "Personal folders\Inbox\Work" + ...
// TAB + folderGeneric + CR + ...
// "Personal folders\Inbox\Personal" + ...
// TAB + folderGeneric + CR +...

I have tested with IMAP using our email server, gmail ,hotmail and the behaviour is the same(no folder type).
