PHP IMAP Fetcher
PHP IMAP Fetcher is an open source PHP script that can fetch or pipe emails from a POP box, save the message to MySQL (both text-plain and text-html), and save attachments/images locally.
Compatibility
The script has been tested on emails sent from Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, Apple Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird, and others.
Installing
Navigate to the folder on your server where you want to run the script.
- Upload the files:
- application.php
- class.php
- config.php
- mimeDecode.php
-
Create a folder called "files" and make sure it's writable by the web server.
-
In your MySQL database, create the tables "emails" and "files" by importing the file:
- mysql-structure.sql
- Open the file config.php and add your MySQL and POP credentials.
Pipe vs Fetch
You can either pipe an email address to the script to process each email as it arrives, or you can fetch emails one-by-one from a mailbox using a cron job (emails are deleted as they're processed.) We recommend using the fetch method.
The script is set to "fetch" by default but you can change it to "pipe" in config.php
IMAP Flags
There are flags set by default in config.php but you can change them by referencing:
http://php.net/manual/en/function.imap-open.php
Running the script
The file to either pipe to or run as a cron job is application.php
Referencing attachments/images
When an email is processed, a unique ID will be generated for the MySQL record and if any attachments are present, a folder for that ID will be created in your "files" folder. Attachments will be saved there.
Reference to images is only saved in the "text-html" part of the message, and not the "text-plain."
Images are referenced like:
[filePath]/dkvmbY14NZr4l4eb79Gs1513724817/mypicture.png
When including the message in your own application you'll simply replace "[filePath]" with the relevant folder path, for example, if the path to your files is:
[example.com]/application/files/dkvmbY14NZr4l4eb79Gs1513724817/mypicture.png
then your code will be
$str = str_replace("[filePath]","/application/files",$str);
