IMAP is a completely different protocol than POP3. However, you would be able to log into your POP3 account if their server had IMAP enabled. Otherwise, you will not be able to do it. If IMAP is enabled; though, you may want to look at the imap functions on php.net.
Hope this helps.
//EDIT: Although I recommend doing what djr33 suggested. It would probably be a lot more reliable. (Also, keep in mind that if IMAP is enabled; but on a different port other than 143, then the imap functions will not work properly.)
Thanks.
I'll look into configuring my server soon.
Ok. I ended up setting my own e-mail server with hMailServer or something.
It supports SMTP.
Now, how do I set the mail() function?
In your php.ini file, look for "Mail Settings", you'll see 2 things (if you are on windows) SMTP Server, and SMTP Port (or something similar). The server should be set as localhost (or the address of your server) and the port should be 25 (or the port of your server).
Hope this helps.
//EDIT: Also in hMailServer, you will have to play with the configuration a little to get PHP to send emails through it.
How would I configure that?Quote:

Well, in the hMailAdmin program look under the heading "SMTP". Beneath that there is aother heading that says (I think) "IP Homes". Click on "My Computer" and you will see some checkboxes for you to limit who can/cannot send through your server. Same with "Internet".
//EDIT: For the settings I mentioned above (the IP Homes thing) is actually under these heading: "Settings" => "Advanced" => "IP Ranges" => "My Computer" or "Internet".
You will then see the checkboxes underneath the heading "Allow Deliveries from:".
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
I've got the e-mail setup and I can recieve and send e-mails to myself. But I can't send e-mails to other people.
I've tried doing Settings>Advanced>IP Ranges>Internet and deselected both options for "Require Authentication for deliveries" but it keeps on adding to the queue.
What about the options in "Allow Deliveries From" part, did you check all of the items? Also, you need to make sure that you have an MX record set up so others can send mail to you (and in some cases, receive mail from you).
Hope this helps.
They're all ticked.Quote:
