Hi,

I'm afraid this is a rather tough one, as nobody has answered so far.

I'm growing rather desperate about this issue that's been causing me
several sleepless nights already. All I want is to be able to use IMAP to
access POP3 mailboxes with PHP4 (4.0.5). I had no trouble compiling both 
imap and PHP4 on Linux, and actually I also compiled PHP3 with the same IMAP
library.  My Apache uses both modules simultaneously. My little test script (see 
below)  works fine on 
PHP3, but on PHP4 I get the following message(s), being the first the most relevant 
one: 

Warning: Couldn't open stream {mail.host.tld/pop3:110}INBOX in 
/usr/data/htdocs/intranet/mail.php on line 
6
 Warning: Unable to find stream pointer in /usr/data/htdocs/intranet/mail.php on line 
7
 Warning: Variable passed to each() is not an array or object in 
/usr/data/htdocs/intranet/mail.php on
 line 8
 Warning: Unable to find stream pointer in /usr/data/htdocs/intranet/mail.php on line 
10

The code is ok, as far as I can tell (correct me if I'm wrong): 

<html> 
<head><title>Mail Test</title></head> 
<body> 
<?php 
 $host = "mail.host.tld/pop3"; 
 $mbox = imap_open ("\{$host:110}INBOX", "test", "test"); 
 $aHeaders = imap_headers( $mbox ); 
 while( list( $Key, $Val ) = each( $aHeaders ) ) 
   echo $Val . "<br>"; 
 imap_close( $mbox ); 
?> 
</body> 
</html> 

The $host in the imap_open line has already been replaced by the literal
string, I have left out the \ before the {,  everything in vain. 

I use apache 1.3.20, PHP 4.0.5, the IMAP snapshot from a couple of days
ago and I configured PHP like this: 

'./configure' '--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs' '--with-gd=yes'
'--with-xpm-dir' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local' '--with-
ttf=/usr/src/freetype-1.3.1' '--with-zlib' '--with-xml' '--with-ftp'
'--with-mcal=../libmcal' '--with-imap' '--with- sybase=/opt/sybase-11.9.2'
'--with-mysql=/usr' '--with-mcrypt=/usr/local' '--with-mhash'
'--with-config-file- path=/etc/httpd/conf' '--enable-versioning'
'--enable-track-vars'   

according to phpinfo(). 

I tried to track down the problem by inserting messages in various PHP and
IMAP source code places. I couldn't get  beyond the call to tcp_open in
IMAP's mail_open function.  It seems that this tcp_open is not being
called by PHP4,  while PHP3 calls it perfectly.  I think maybe the tcp
driver is not loaded, or so.  The pop3 driver seems to be ok. 

I really don't know, I'm just speculating here.  But what could be the
problem?  Is there anything I may have missed  during configure and
compile of PHP4 that differs from the PHP3 procedure? 

Please, you PHP makers out there, try to help me. I would really
appreciate this.  If I can't solve this problem, I can't  port my project
to PHP4. 

Thanks in advance, 
Greetings, 
Michael Heumann.
