secure: true,
debug: false
});
imap.on('error',function(conn,err){
console.log('[test] error');
console.log(err);
})
imap.on('imap error',function(conn,keyName,msg,shortmsg){
console.log('[test] imap error ('+keyName+'): '+msg+' '+shortmsg);
})
imap.on('error chained',function(conn,keyName,msg,shortmsg){
console.log('[test] error chained ('+keyName+'): '+msg+' '+shortmsg);
})
imap.on('chained',function(conn){
console.log('[test] chain finished');
console.log(imap.get('inbox list')); // show the list result
console.log(imap.get('search result')); // show the search result
console.log(imap.get('fetch result')); // show the fetch result
})
imap.chained()
.connect()
.login() // login
.select('inbox') // open the inbox
.list('inbox','*','inbox list') // list all boxes in inbox,

API
require('tualo-imap') returns one object: Connection.
