imap_getmailboxes
Read the list of mailboxes, returning detailed information on
each one
Description
arrayimap_getmailboxes
resourceimap_stream
stringref
stringpattern
Returns an array of objects containing mailbox information. Each
object has the attributes name, specifying
the full name of the mailbox; delimiter,
which is the hierarchy delimiter for the part of the hierarchy
this mailbox is in; and
attributes. Attributes
is a bitmask that can be tested against:
LATT_NOINFERIORS - This mailbox has no "children" (there are
no mailboxes below this one).
LATT_NOSELECT - This is only a container, not a mailbox - you
cannot open it.
LATT_MARKED - This mailbox is marked. Only used by UW-IMAPD.
LATT_UNMARKED - This mailbox is not marked. Only used by
UW-IMAPD.
Mailbox names containing international Characters outside the
printable ASCII range will be encoded and may be decoded by
imap_utf7_decode.
ref should normally be just the server
specification as described in imap_open, and
pattern specifies where in the mailbox
hierarchy to start searching. If you want all mailboxes, pass
'*' for pattern.
There are two special characters you can pass as part of the
pattern: '*' and '%'. '*' means to return
all mailboxes. If you pass pattern as '*',
you will get a list of the entire mailbox hierarchy. '%' means to
return the current level only. '%' as the
pattern parameter will return only the top
level mailboxes; '~/mail/%' on UW_IMAPD will return every mailbox
in the ~/mail directory, but none in subfolders of that
directory.
