I hold with the first note:
This function is next to useless. It seems that both the examples above are attempting to use it in
a context that you would count the number of headers it returns.
Simply use imap_num_msg for this... it returns the number of messages.
You may argue that the string formatted data returned could be used for display purposes, but the
much more detailed data you can get from imap_headerinfo is much more useful, and can be formatted
to display more detailed information, or more 'friendly' info on screen.
