Has anyone had any experience with setting up Imap to check and view email on Google?

LabelResult.Text = imap1.Login("imap.gmail.com", "fakeemail@gmail.com", "secretpassword").Code.ToString();
imap1.Security = Dart.PowerTCP.Mail.Security.Explicit;

I keep getting the error message: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 74.125.95.109:143

Please review Google's instructions for using an Imap client with Gmail: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=77659

They use some non-standard ports and require SSL, you need to configure the control to use the ports and SSL as well.

How would you set the ports and what do you want for the client field?

imap1.Login("imap.gmail.com", 993, "client", 80, "fakeemail@gmail.com", "secretpassword")

What about the security setting, which one is correct?
imap1.Security = Dart.PowerTCP.Mail.Security.Explicit;
OR
.ExplicitOptional;
OR
.Implicit;
OR
None;

I also noticed that you mention a control. I have the dll in my bin directory. But it's nowhere in my toolbox as a control in spite of following instructions to do so. I'm using VS2008.

This works for me:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using Dart.PowerTCP.Mail;

namespace GMailSmtp
{
  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      Imap myMap = new Imap();
      myMap.Security = Security.Implicit;
      myMap.Login("imap.gmail.com", 993, "", 0, "emailaddress@gmail.com", "password");
       foreach (Mailbox MB in myMap.Mailboxes)
      {
        Console.WriteLine(MB.Name);
      }
      Console.ReadLine();
    }

}
