Reading Emails with PHP

[elabuwa]

Hi guys,

I am trying to read a set of emails. Below is my code.

Code: Select all

<?php

    $imap = imap_open("{mail.emailserver.com:143/notls}INBOX", "testing@emailserver.com", "password");
    $message_count = imap_num_msg($imap);
   
    for ($i = 1; $i <= $message_count; ++$i) {
        $header = imap_header($imap, $i);
       $body = imap_body($imap, $i);
        $prettydate = date("jS F Y", $header->udate);

        if (isset($header->from[0]->personal)) {
            $personal = $header->from[0]->personal;
        } else {
            $personal = $header->from[0]->mailbox;
        }

        $email = "$personal <{$header->from[0]->mailbox}@{$header->from[0]->host}>";
        //echo "On $prettydate, $email said \"$body\".\n";
        echo $body;
    }

    imap_close($imap);

?>

I assume that the code is working coz when I send a normal email from outlook or what ever it displays them properly.
However, for a certain set of emails it DOES display some characters but no where near anything in the message.

The email reads fine in Horde/Squirrel etc. The actual email looks like

I am totally confused with this scenario.
Can any one please help me out.

Those e-mails are encrypted using TLS or SSL. You would have to find a way to decrypt them, they will require you to have to public key to decrypt them.

I don't know exactly how to obtain that or the procedure on how to decrypt the text but, I can definitively say that is what the problem you are experiencing is.
