Mail_IMAP Description
Mail_IMAP provides an object-oriented backend for working with the PHP c-client (imap) extension. The c-client extension provides functionality for connecting to IMAP, POP3 or NNTP mailboxes. Mail_IMAP acts as a wrapper for the most used c-client functions providing parsing of multipart messages, intelligent message body retrieval as well as header parsing and retrieval. Mail_IMAP is an ideal solution when a customizable webmail template is necessary. Mail_IMAP may also act as a component in an automated mailing list manager, as it can do all the dirty work of retrieving the subject line, message body, attachments or other message components.
