[Answered] Php Imap Error

[nyten]

Hi, I have tried to connect to my imap-mailbox via php...

but it always spits out this error:

Warning: imap_open() [function.imap-open]: Couldn't open stream [...]

 

One of many tested versions:

imap_open("{mail.nyten.heliohost.org:143}", "test@nyten.heliohost.org", "PASSWORD");

 

 

Please help me.

Did you try

imap_open("{mail.nyten.heliohost.org:143}INBOX", "test@nyten.heliohost.org", "PASSWORD");

[nyten]

Yes I've already tried...

same error.

Try something like this:

 

<?php

$hostname = "{localhost:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX";

$username = "YOUR_USERNAME";
$password = "PASSWORD";

$inbox = imap_open($hostname,$username,$password) or die('Cannot connect to Mail' . imap_last_error());
echo "<h2>Connected to Mail!</h2>";
imap_close($inbox);
?>

 

One more thing. This is not your username: test@nyten.heliohost.org. Your username for default mail is the same username you login with.

Thank you both.

 

It accepts the hostname localhost:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert

 

test@nyten.heliohost.org is just an email address that I created to test this.

So your problem is resolved then?

[nyten]

Yes.

I can't find the "solved-button"

That's fine. I'll add the "Answered" to the title.
