Retreiving Email headers with PHP
I have seen several places on php.net and other sites that claim to be able to access emails via PHP, and some places that say access emails in your Gmail/gmail for your domain account. I am having trouble doing this. I have not been able to connect and retrieve the headers successfully. I'm pretty sure there are no issues with my PHP.INI file. I have IMAP enabled. I do not have SSL on my server. That may affect it.
What I would like to do is send an email to a special email account, and then use a CRON job to check that account on a periodic basis. That CRON job can then execute some sort of script based on the email. Is this possible?
I have attached some sample code. The common error I get is either a Timeout or Invalid remote specification.

$mail = "";
$mbox = imap_open("{imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl}INBOX", "username", "password")
or die(imap_last_error());
echo "<h1>Mailboxes</h1>\n";
$folders = imap_listmailbox($mbox, "{imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl}", "*");
if ($folders == false) {
$mail .= "Call failed<br />\n";
} else {
foreach ($folders as $val) {
$mail .= $val . "<br />\n";
}
}
echo "<h1>Headers in INBOX</h1>\n";
$headers = imap_headers($mbox);
if ($headers == false) {
$mail .= "Call failed<br />\n";
} else {
foreach ($headers as $val) {
$mail .= $val . "<br />\n";
}
}
imap_close($mbox);
echo $mail;

Yes, I think i found out that it's pretty much enabled by default. I checked both of my accounts to make sure it was enabled, and it was, and I don't ever remember enabling it. Maybe if POP is enabled, it will automatically enable IMAP. Anyway, thanks for the help.
Mine is still taking a long time? Is it trying to get ALL my email?? Do you know if there is a way to limit the # of headers it fetches?
I get:
Warning: imap_open() [function.imap-open]: Couldn't open stream {imap.gmail.com:993/imap/s
Can't connect to gmail-imap.l.google.com,99

Very likely. IMAP depends on a 'bookmark' from the client to determine which mail is new. Without that bookmark, it normally assumes that mail has never been downloaded, and everything is new. In your example, you're using imap_headers(), which grabs all mail by default.
Take a look at the link below. There are many functions available for dealing with IMAP boxes in PHP, and I'm sure you'll find everything you need:

To try to troubleshoot this, I removed the entire headers section, and I should just be retrieving the folders, however I still get the same error. It's saying that the timeout is occurring on line 3, which is imap_open() line. Could there be something else wrong or not set correctly?
Go back to steelseth12's question:
>>> Do you have imap enabled in your gmail account ?
If so, try hitting it from an established IMAP client, such as Thunderbird.

I setup my account in thunderbird and after following the instructions here:

I was able to download all my folders and messages very quickly. What should I try next?

I copied your code into a new PHP file, changed the username and password, and saved it. It worked the very first try. The code is good...it must be something else preventing your connection to gmail's server. Here's a couple ideas you can check:
1) On the server running the script, check your connectivity to imap.gmail.com. Ping it a few hundred times to make sure it is consistent.
2) Check your phpinfo() output for the IMAP module. You should see entries for SSL and Kerberos support. At a minimum, you're going to need SSL. I'm not sure about Kerberos. Mine shows both enabled.
3) Check imap_errors() and imap_alerts() for any additional information in the IMAP error stack.
4) Review your PHP logs for any PHP-related errors not being printed to the result.
Finally, you can test the session manually if you have the openssl app. I'm only familiar with how this works on nix. I imagine it would be much the same on Windows. Here's a copy of my attempt from a few moments ago:
#> openssl s_client -bugs -host imap.gmail.com -port 993 -quiet

I meant a ping command from a command window. In nix, this is a shell command line. In Windows, this is cmd.exe window.
What version of PHP are you using?
Did you try the openssl s_client test (preferably from the same server running the PHP script)?
Does your code work if you use the IP instead of imap.gmail.com (I get 64.233.185.109)?
I'm not sure that PEAR has anything to do with it, but I'm looking. The IMAP documentation in PHP has not mentioned anything about it that I've seen.
So far, everything is pointing back to your being unable to resolve the server.

So what does this mean? Do we start back from the beginning? Should I still try to post in DNS? Even though I was pinging the wrong address, the address in the script is correct. I'm still getting the same error.

My host has responded telling me they have added a firewall rule that allows outbound to gmail! thanks for all your help!
>>> You are pinging imap.gmail.com. I've been pinging imap.google.com.
LOL! I can't believe I didn't catch that...I made the same mistake during some my tests, too.
>>> When I ping imap.gmail.com, I do get a response.
I was kind of curious about that until...
>>> My host has responded telling me they have added a firewall rule that allows outbound to gmail!
That makes more sense now. Many ISPs block port 25 (outbound SMTP) as a general rule, but I haven't heard of too many blocking IMAP/S or POP/S. I'm glad you were able to get it resolved. Good luck!

Do you have imap enabled in your gmail account ?
