    Hi...

    I'm interested in using PHP to extract attachments from a standard unix
    ..mbox file...anybody done this or have a link to resources that might
    help? There is plenty on sending mail, but not much on
    reading/processing mail with php...

    Thx!

      http://www.php.net/imap and the imap_fetchstruc ture function is a good
      place to start :)

          What have you searched for then? Searching for mbox and php came up with
          a pear class called Mail_Mbox for reading mbox files. You'll just need
          to parse the data, which can again be done with another pear class:
          Mail_Mime. Alternatively you could use the imap/pop3 extensions if
          applicable.

              But what about syntax to open local mbox file ? PHP imap_open is
              intended to do that but... HOW ?
