(PHP ActiveX) Secure IMAP over TLS/SSL

To communicate with an IMAP server over TLS/SSL, simply set the Ssl and Port properties. The remainder of your code is the same as with non-SSL.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.

<?php

$success = 0;

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$imap = new COM("Chilkat.Imap");

// To use a secure TLS/SSL connection, set the Ssl property and the port:
$imap->Ssl = 1;
// The typical port for IMAP SSL is 993
$imap->Port = 993;

// Connect to an IMAP server.
$success = $imap->Connect('imap.example.com');
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Login
$success = $imap->Login('myLogin','myPassword');
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Select an IMAP mailbox
$success = $imap->SelectMailbox('Inbox');
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;

// Get the message IDs of all the emails in the mailbox

$success = $imap->QueryMbx('ALL',$fetchUids,$messageSet);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Fetch the emails into a bundle object:
$bundle = new COM("Chilkat.EmailBundle");

$success = $imap->FetchMsgSet($headersOnly,$messageSet,$bundle);

    print $email->Subject . "\n";
    print '--' . "\n";
    $i = $i + 1;
