imap_getmailboxes

(PHP 3 >= 3.0.12, PHP 4, PHP 5)

imap_getmailboxes --  Read the list of mailboxes, returning detailed information on each one

Description

array imap_getmailboxes ( resource imap_stream, string ref, string pattern )

Returns an array of objects containing mailbox information. Each object has the attributes name, specifying the full name of the mailbox; delimiter, which is the hierarchy delimiter for the part of the hierarchy this mailbox is in; and attributes. Attributes is a bitmask that can be tested against:

Mailbox names containing international Characters outside the printable ASCII range will be encoded and may be decoded by imap_utf7_decode().

ref should normally be just the server specification as described in imap_open(), and pattern specifies where in the mailbox hierarchy to start searching. If you want all mailboxes, pass '*' for pattern.

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.
