Ok, I'm trying, in php, using the imap commands to read emails from a mailbox and then do something with them (doesn't matter what). I'm getting the sending host, the subject and the sender and then the body of the email. If the email is in mime type 'quoted-printable for Text/Html' then I can read it fine using imap_qprint($text). However, if is in mime type '8bit for Text/Html', I try using imap_8bit($text) and still get garbage.
This is the code
<?php
$codes = array("7bit","8bit","binary","base64","quoted-printable","other");
$stt = array("Text","Multipart","Message","Application","Audio","Image","Video","Other");
# Connect to the mail server and grab headers from the mailbox
$mail = imap_open('{remote.nh-group.co.uk:110/pop3}', 'itsupport', 'xxxx');
$headers = imap_headers($mail);
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Reading a Mailbox including multipart emails from within
PHP</title>
</head>
<body>
<?
$pictures = 0;
$html = "";
# loop through each email
for ($n=1; $n<=count($headers); $n++) {
$header = imap_header($mail, $n);
$st = imap_fetchstructure($mail, $n);
$multi = $st->parts;
$nparts = count($multi);
if ($nparts == 0) {
$html2 .= "* SINGLE part email<br>";
} else{
$html2 .= "* MULTI part email<br>";
}
# look at the main part of the email, and subparts if they're present
for ($p=0; $p<=$nparts; $p++) {
$text =imap_fetchbody($mail,$n,$p);
if ($p == 0) {
$it = $stt[$st->type];
$is = ucfirst(strtolower($st->subtype));
$ie = $codes[$st->encoding];
} else {
$it = $stt[$multi[$p-1]->type];
$is = ucfirst(strtolower($multi[$p-1]->subtype));
$ie = $codes[$multi[$p-1]->encoding];
}
# Report on the mimetype
$mimetype = "$it/$is";
$mimeshow .= "<br /><b>Part $p ... ";
$mimeshow .= "Encoding: $ie for $mimetype</b><br />";
# decode content if it's encoded (more types to add later!)
if ($ie == "8bit") {
$body = imap_8bit($text);
}
if ($ie == "base64") {
$body = imap_base64($text);
}
if ($ie == "quoted-printable") {
$body = imap_qprint($text);
}
# If it's a .jpg image, save it (more types to add later)
if ($mimetype == "Image/Jpeg") {
$picture++;
$fho = fopen("imx/mp$picture.jpg","w");
fputs($fho,$realdata);
fclose($fho);
# And put the image in the report, limited in size
$html2 .= "<img src=/demo/imx/mp$picture.jpg width=150><br />";
}
# Add the start of the text to the message
$shorttext = substr($text,0,8000);
if (strlen($text) > 8000) $shorttext .= " ...\n";
$html2.= nl2br(htmlspecialchars($shorttext))."<br>";
}
echo $mimeshow.'<br>';
$subject=$header->subject;
echo '<br>Subject: '.$subject.'<br>';
echo '<br>Sender: '.$header->senderaddress.'<br>';
$splitheader = get_object_vars($header);
$host=$splitheader[from][0]->host;
echo '<br>Header: '.$host.'<br>';
echo $body.'<br>';
}
?>
</body>
</html>
I have two emails in the inbox. The first is encoded as singlepart 8bit and the second as multipart with quoted-printable
The results are as follows
Part 0 ... Encoding: 8bit for Text/Html

As you can see, the second email $body gives me some normal formatted text I can use. The first however gives me...well, something!
Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
