The current supported flags are CURLULFLAG_ANSWERED, which sets the Answered flag for IMAP uploads, CURLULFLAG_DELETED, which sets the Deleted flag for IMAP uploads, CURLULFLAG_DRAFT, which sets the Draft flag for IMAP uploads, CURLULFLAG_FLAGGED, which sets the Flagged flag for IMAP uploads, and CURLULFLAG_SEEN, which sets the Seen flag for IMAP uploads.

DEFAULT

A bitmask with only the CURLULFLAG_SEEN flag set.

PROTOCOLS

EXAMPLE

static size_t read_cb(char *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *userdata)
{


  FILE *src = userdata;


  /* copy as much data as possible into the 'ptr' buffer, but no more than


     'size' * 'nmemb' bytes */


  size_t retcode = fread(ptr, size, nmemb, src);


  return retcode;
}
int main(void)
{


  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();


  if(curl) {


    FILE *src = fopen("local-file", "r");


    curl_off_t fsize = 9876; /* set this to the size of the input file */


    /* we want to use our own read function */


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_READFUNCTION, read_cb);


    /* enable uploading */


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_UPLOAD, 1L);


    /* specify target */


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "imap://example.com:993/mailbox");


    /* provide username */


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_USERNAME, "user@example.com");


    /* provide password */


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PASSWORD, "password");


    /* specify that uploaded mail should be considered flagged */


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_UPLOAD_FLAGS, CURLULFLAG_FLAGGED);


    /* now specify which pointer to pass to our callback */


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_READDATA, src);


    /* Set the size of the file to upload */


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_INFILESIZE_LARGE, (curl_off_t)fsize);


    /* perform the upload */


    curl_easy_perform(curl);


  }
