I'd do something like this:
$str = "
User : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Dir : /home/eXtremail/mbox/i-redlands.net/3/1/liam
Forward :
Copy :
Account mapping :
User Disk Quota : 0
Disk Space Used : 0
Max In Mail Size : 0
Max Out Mail Size : 0
Autoreply : No
Mailbox Access : POP,IMAP
Created : Sat Jul 6 09:21:23 2002
Status : Enabled
";
$ary = explode("\n", $str);
foreach( $ary as $line ) {
list($k, $v) = split(" : ", $line);
$data[$k] = $v;
}
print($data["User Disk Quota"] . "\n");
print($data["Dir"] . "\n");
