If any dev has some minutes to lend me a helping hand I'd try to start this on my own.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-12-21 15:04:11] benjamin dot podszun at gmail dot com Description: ------------ IMAP [1] supports a CAPABILITY command to check for various supported extensions. While the c-client library supports checking for capabilities, PHP doesn't offer any way to do that. One of that extensions, NAMESPACE [2], is critical for applications that use php and imap in combination with a server that relies on different namespaces for the user inbox and for example the shared folders. Without support for this command (which again is already available in the c-client library and "only" needs exposure/wrapping) there's no way to access shared folders on a server that supports multiple namespaces and therefor things like listing shared folders, subscribing to shared folders etc. cannot work reliably (without hardcoding/hacking the namespace in). Proposal: Support for both protocol details should be added. I guess it's a no-brainer for anyone with a little experience with php modules and C.

Actual result: -------------- No support at all yet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=39924&edit=1
