//Copying Multiple Messages From One Folder to Another

//[C# Code Sample]

using (ImapClient client = new ImapClient("exchange.aspose.com", "username", "password" ))
{
    //create the destination folder
    string folderName = "EMAILNET-35242";
    if (!client.ExistFolder(folderName))
        client.CreateFolder(folderName);

try
    {
        //Append a couple of messages to the server
        MailMessage message1 = new MailMessage(
            "asposeemail.test3@aspose.com",
            "asposeemail.test3@aspose.com",
            "EMAILNET-35242 - " + Guid.NewGuid().ToString(),
            "EMAILNET-35242 Improvement of copy method.Add ability to 'copy' multiple messages per invocation.");
        string uniqueId1 = client.AppendMessage(message1);

MailMessage message2 = new MailMessage(
            "asposeemail.test3@aspose.com",
            "asposeemail.test3@aspose.com",
            "EMAILNET-35242 - " + Guid.NewGuid().ToString(),
            "EMAILNET-35242 Improvement of copy method.Add ability to 'copy' multiple messages per invocation.");
        string uniqueId2 = client.AppendMessage(message2);

//verify that the messages have been added to the mailbox
        client.SelectFolder(ImapFolderInfo.InBox);
        ImapMessageInfoCollection msgsColl = client.ListMessages();
        foreach (ImapMessageInfo msgInfo in msgsColl)
            Console.WriteLine(msgInfo.Subject);

//copy multiple messages using hte CopyMessages command
        client.CopyMessages(new string[] { uniqueId1, uniqueId2 }, folderName, true);

//Verify that messages are copied to the destination folder
        client.SelectFolder(folderName);
        msgsColl = client.ListMessages();
        foreach (ImapMessageInfo msgInfo in msgsColl)
            Console.WriteLine(msgInfo.Subject);

    finally
    {
        try {
            client.DeleteFolder(folderName);
        }
