My browser has this amazing thing called Google installed. It's a kind
of search facility with which I can search through Internet to find
information.

By searching for libgmail it gives me about 158000 places to read
through but if I were you I'd start at the top which is
libgmail.sourceforge.net

HTH,

Funny enough I find the same "Google" in my browser too. and if my
memory serves me correct I did the same search which you allude to. It
is only after series of exhaustive searches rummaging through websites
with incomplete (or non existent ) docs that i posed the question
here.... thanks for the suggestion anyway....

The page I suggested to you
http://libgmail.sourceforge.net/
has a Downloads link and there you can find a docs file which contains
demo code (9 programs) and the libgmail API documentation.

Unfortunately I don't have a Gmail account, so I'm not able to try the
programs out but I think they do some of the things you are targeting.

HTH,
