FromUTF7 Method


Decodes the specified UTF-7M string into regular string.

Usually, you do not need to manually decode mailbox names returned by the IMAP server because the decoded name is always available via Mailbox.Name property (undecoded name is also available, see Mailbox.OriginalName property).

Manual decoding of MailBox.OriginalName makes no sense because decoded mailbox name is available in Mailbox.Name property. However, if your application stores MailBox.OriginalName in a database back-end, you should use this method to decode mailbox name (make it readable for users) retrieved from the database. This allows storing only MailBox.OriginalName in the database (no need to also store Mailbox.Name).
