ID: 7486 Updated by: chagenbu Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Feedback Bug Type: IMAP related PHP Version: 4.0.2 Assigned To: Comments: From: "Rick Gigger" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> All email messages have a unique identifier. It is a long string that ususally contains a domiain name or ip address. It is unique to all email addresses in the world. It would be much, much more useful if imap_uid would return that instead. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-05-03 15:36:24] [EMAIL PROTECTED] You might have the wrong idea of what uid is - what do you expect it to be? On pop servers the message uid will very likely just _be_ the message number... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-10-27 03:30:55] [EMAIL PROTECTED] When I call connect to a qmail pop server and call imap_uid all it does is return the message number back to me. It DOES NOT return the uid. I have to call imap_header for that and it is very slow. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email!
