[Python.NET] Unable to import library imaplib

[Kris Beyers]

Hi
 
I changed the version to 2.44, but the problem remains.
 
Meanwhile I found another solution to communicate directly from C# to an IMAP server with a very nice freeware library. It also includes some other protocol communication like pop3, smtp, Auth_HttpDigest, dns, ftp, http, icmp, io, log, mime, nntp, sdp and sip.
 
If you are interested, you can find my writings here http://www.lumisoft.ee/Forum/default.aspx?g=posts&t=98
The example there uses following library http://www.lumisoft.ee/lsWWW/ENG/Products/WEB_Mail/webmail_index_eng.aspx?type=download
 
Rregards,
Kris

Note that the latest PythonNet is built for and includes 2.4, not 2.5, unless you’ve built your own version.That probably means that pythonnet is looking at the PYTHONPATH for 2.4, which probably doesn’t have imaplib installed.I’d suggest making sure to install imaplib in the site-packages used by your PythonNet/2.4 installation...-BrianOn 4/11/07 5:16 AM, "Kris Beyers" <kris_beyers at hotmail.com> wrote:
Hi I can import CLR, but not imaplib. Although imaplib is part of the standard python library, and I suppose I didn't need CLR.I also tried different combinations of case of the word "imaplib", since the import statement is case sensitive.Currently I have the latest Python version 25, and installed the latest PythonNet afterwards (PythonNet 1.0 release candidate 2).Also tried to include the path to the C:\Python25\Lib in the systemvariable PATH, where imaplib.py resides. Furthermore I included C:\Program Files\PythonNet in the same systemvariable, but that's nog part of the problem I guess. Regards,Kris

Showing error message in the C# developer: "<null reference>". I also tried to call PythonEngine.ImportModule("imaplib") first, but no change.Is there a way to import the library?
