PHP ActiveX Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Delete All IMAP Email

Demonstrates two ways to delete all email in a mailbox on an IMAP server. PHP ActiveX

<?php

$success = 0;

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

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

//  Turn on session logging:
$imap->KeepSessionLog = 1;

//  Connect to an IMAP server.
//  Use TLS
$imap->Ssl = 1;
$imap->Port = 993;
$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 = $imap->SelectMailbox('Inbox.RubyMail');
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

//  Get the complete set of Uids for email in the selected mailbox.
$messageSet = new COM("Chilkat.MessageSet");
$success = $imap->QueryMbx('ALL',1,$messageSet);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

//  Set the Deleted flag for each message.
//  (ExpungeAndClose must be called to finalize the delete.)
$success = $imap->SetFlags($messageSet,'Deleted',1);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

//  Alternatively, the Deleted flag may be set for each UID
//  individiually, but this is less efficient:
$i = 0;
$n = $messageSet->Count;
while ($i < $n) {
    $success = $imap->SetFlag($messageSet->GetId($i),$messageSet->HasUids,'Deleted',1);
    if ($success == 0) {
        print $imap->LastErrorText . "\n";
        exit;
    }

    $i = $i + 1;
}

//  Expunge and close the mailbox.
$success = $imap->ExpungeAndClose();
if ($success == 0) {
    print $imap->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

//  Display the session log.
print $imap->SessionLog . "\n";

//  Disconnect from the IMAP server.
$success = $imap->Disconnect();
