Example #1 imap_check() example
<?php
$imap_obj = imap_check($imap_stream);
var_dump($imap_obj);
?>
以上例程的输出类似于：
object(stdClass)(5) {
["Date"]=>
string(37) "Wed, 10 Dec 2003 17:56:54 +0100 (CET)"
["Driver"]=>
string(4) "imap"
["Mailbox"]=>
string(54)
"{www.example.com:143/imap/user="foo@example.com"}INBOX"
["Nmsgs"]=>
int(1)
["Recent"]=>
int(0)
}
You can NOT prevent imap_check from flagging new/recent messages when using POP3 enabling the "/readonly" or OP_READONLY flags or options.
The imap_check ($stream); function will return real-time information about the e-mail box (at least imap) during one connection :)
You can prevent imap_check from flagging new/recent messages as checked by calling imap_open with the "/readonly" or OP_READONLY flags.
Running this on a mailbox will mark recent/new messages as checked.
