    Hi everyone,

    I'm looking for a detailed explanation of how to enable IMAP4 on PHP!. I have this web application (running on APACHE on LINUX), that needs the IMAP4 enabled on PHP.

    I was told I had to compile PHP with IMAP4 support, but I cant find any detailed help online.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Why do you have to compile it, just install the module if you are using a redhat based system the module is called php-imap.

    How ever if you are using a custom compiled php then you need the c-client then you should add this to your configure.
    Code:
    ./configure --with-imap[=DIR]
    
    Where DIR is the directory where the c-client is installed. More info is found here http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.imap.php
