Hello,
We used MIME and NLS libraries in our previous code that are part of PEAR
and Horde projects, and so our function was so specific. Here is the
general (pure php) code for this function:
function imap_locale_sort($stream,$criteria,$reverse,$locale,$options)
{
if ($criteria!=SORTSUBJECT)
return (imap_sort($stream,$criteria,$reverse,$options));
$unsorted = array();
$sortresult = array();
$MC=imap_check($stream);
$MN=$MC->Nmsgs;
$overview = imap_fetch_overview($stream,"1:$MN",0);
$k=0;
while( list($key,$val) = each($overview))
{
$unsorted[$k]["uid"]=$val->uid;
$unsorted[$k]["subject"]=imap_utf8($val->subject);
$k++;
}
usort ($unsorted, create_function('$a,$b','setlocale
(LC_ALL,$locale);return strcoll($a["subject"],$b["subject"]);'));
for ($m=0;$m<count($unsorted);$m++)
array_push($sortresult,$unsorted[$m]["uid"]);
if ($reverse)
$sortresult = array_reverse($sortresult);
return $sortresult;
}
Sample usage:
$mbox = imap_open("{localhost:143}INBOX.sent-mail",'salman',"123");
if ($mbox)
echo ("Connection Successful!");
$sorted = imap_locale_sort($mbox,SORTSUBJECT,0,'fa_IR',0);
print_r($sorted);
print ("\n\n");
$sorted = imap_sort($mbox,SORTSUBJECT,SE_UID);
print_r($sorted);
imap_close($mbox);
