#7207 [Com]: imap_open bug

ID: 7207 Comment by: compu_global_hyper_mega_net_2 at yahoo dot com Reported By: brain at brainlapse Status: Closed Bug Type: IMAP related Operating System: win98se PHP Version: 4.0.3 New Comment: This bug should be reopened. The current behaviour is really wrong. <? $mbox = @imap_open('{localhost:110/pop3}INBOX', 'user', 'password'); ?> Obviously, in the above example, I have a pop3 server running on localhost, with the user/password credentials. Result: PHP Notice: (null)(): Mailbox is empty (errflg=1) in Unknown on line 0 Notice: (null)(): Mailbox is empty (errflg=1) in Unknown on line 0 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-04 07:34:32] a at a dot com After almost 4 years, this problem continues to be unaddressed. The mail-box-empty message is reported as an error, which is wrong. If the mail box is empty, imap_last_error should not return this as an error. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2000-10-30 09:26:33] sniper@php.net No feedback and I can not reproduce this with latest working CVS. --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2000-10-15 21:45:56] sniper@php.net I can not reproduce this. Could you please include a shortest possible reproducing script into this bug report? --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2000-10-14 12:35:22] brain at brainlapse when there are no messages in an INBOX, the error "Fatal error: Mailbox is empty in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs/mail.php3 on line XX" Adding the @ in front of imap_open does nothing. When there are messages this error does not apear. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=7207&edit=1
