imap_search

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

imap_search — This function returns an array of messages matching the given search criteria

Opis

array imap_search ( resource $imap_stream , string $criteria [, int $options = SE_FREE [, string $charset = NIL ]] )

This function performs a search on the mailbox currently opened in the given IMAP stream.

For example, to match all unanswered messages sent by Mom, you'd use: "UNANSWERED FROM mom". Searches appear to be case insensitive. This list of criteria is from a reading of the UW c-client source code and may be incomplete or inaccurate (see also » RFC2060, section 6.4.4).

Parametry

imap_stream

Strumień IMAP zwrócony przez imap_open().

UNFLAGGED - match messages that are not flagged
UNKEYWORD "string" - match messages that do not have the keyword "string"

This search looks for messages matching ALL criteria, not ANY criteria. For example the search 



imap_search($mailbox,'FROM "user" TO "user"')



Will return message that have "user" in both the from and to headers, but not messages with "user" in either the from or to header.

imap_search() only supports IMAP2 search criterias, because the function mail_criteria() (from c-client lib) is used in ext/imap/php_imap.c for parsing the search string.

IMAP2 search criteria is defined in RFC 1176, section "tag SEARCH search_criteria".

imap_search() return false if it does not understand the search condition or no messages have been found.



$emails imap_seach($mbox, "UNDELETED SENTSINCE 01-Jan-2002");

if($emails === false)

  echo "The search failed";
