使用Mailkit删除imap文件夹

Question

I am using the Mailkit for .net and am having trouble to delete a IMAP-folder that I created by Code. This is my sample code: Created the folder like this:

var personal = Program.Client.GetFolder (Program.Client.PersonalNamespaces[0]);
            var mailkit = personal.Create("mailkit", false);
            var archive = mailkit.Create("archive", true);
            var flagged = mailkit.Create("flagged", true);
...

Tried to delete the Folder again like this:

    var temp = Program.Client.GetFolder("mailkit");
    temp.Delete();

Get an FolderNotFoundException, but the folder is still there? Need a little help or tip how to do ... (Sorry for this bad english :))

Answer 1

Program.Client.GetFolder("mailkit"); is throwing a FolderNotFoundException because the folder doesn't exist. You need to provide the full path of the folder to ImapClient.GetFolder(string path) , but instead you have only provided the folder's name.

Here's how to get the "mailkit" folder:

var personal = Program.Client.GetFolder (Program.Client.PersonalNamespaces[0]);
var mailkit = personal.GetSubfolder ("mailkit");
