[Python.NET] Unable to import library imaplib

[Kris Beyers]

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

Did you use (in Python)>>> import clrto import the Common Language Runtime and support .NET assemblies?

Hi I'm trying to make a python script (which would be called from a C# application) and communicates with an IMAP server.Passing variables from C# to python and back is no problem, but when I type "import imaplib" on top of the python script to support IMAP, the script fails to run at line with following code: "func.Invoke(arguments)". 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? Thank you in advance.
