Perhaps I should have been more precise (I'm sure I should have...)
When I echo $file, it echos what I would expect (the names of the
files and directories. I guess I need to prefix $file in the is_dir
statement with the full path to the file?
So like this?
$maildir=MERCURY."/MAIL";
$handle=opendir($maildir);
while ($file = readdir($handle)) {
if (is_dir("$maildir/$file") && ($file!=".") && ($file!="..")) {
$users[]=$file;
}
}
It seems contrary to what's in the help, but I'll try it out. Thanks!
Mark
