imap_list — Read the list of mailboxes
Read the list of mailboxes.
imapAn IMAP\Connection instance.
reference
reference should normally be just the server
specification as described in imap_open().
Passing untrusted data to this parameter is insecure, unless imap.enable_insecure_rsh is disabled.
patternSpecifies where in the mailbox hierarchy to start searching.
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.
Returns an array containing the names of the mailboxes or false in case of failure.
| Version | Description |
|---|---|
| 8.1.0 |
The imap parameter expects an IMAP\Connection
instance now; previously, a valid imap resource was expected.

Example #1 imap_list() example
<?php
$mbox = imap_open("{imap.example.org}", "username", "password", OP_HALFOPEN)
or die("can't connect: " . imap_last_error());
$list = imap_list($mbox, "{imap.example.org}", "*");
if (is_array($list)) {
foreach ($list as $val) {
echo imap_utf7_decode($val) . "\n";
}
} else {
echo "imap_list failed: " . imap_last_error() . "\n";
}
imap_close($mbox);
?>
use
echo mb_convert_encoding($val, "utf-8", "UTF7-IMAP");
for cyrrilic folder namesimap_list returns a simple array of strings that look just like the $ref parameter one needs to specify:
<?php
$srv = '{imap.example.com}';
$conn = imap_open($srv, 'me', 'mypass');
$boxes = imap_list($conn, $srv, '*');
print_r($boxes);
imap_close($conn);
?>
Output:
<pre>
Array
(
[0] => {imap.example.com}Calendar
[1] => {imap.example.com}Contacts
[2] => {imap.example.com}Deleted Items
[3] => {imap.example.com}Drafts
[4] => {imap.example.com}Journal
[5] => {imap.example.com}Junk E-mail
[6] => {imap.example.com}Notes
[7] => {imap.example.com}Outbox
[8] => {imap.example.com}RSS Feeds
[9] => {imap.example.com}Sent Items
[10] => {imap.example.com}Tasks
)
</pre>
These directly fill in the $ref argument for every function that takes one.
