imap_open and Gmail Issues

[joshfeingold@gmail.com]

I have a CRM web application that checks users' email accounts and
downloads them to the application. One of the users has a gmail
account and I am trying to get access to this account using the PHP
imap_open (which works with POP mailboxes) function. I have tried
various methods for the values of the domain, but nothing seems to
work.

Has anyone successfully done this?

Thanks,
Josh

Is this a PHP application running on Windows? If so, there are known
problems with IMAP and SSL. You need to check your PHP build. See for
example
