The website I'm currently working on sends out mailings to its opt-in lists. Originally all mailings came from post@domain.com, all the bounces returned to that box. It now has around 1.7 GB of mail in there (6000+ mails) some spam, some bounces.
I have been trying to write a mail processing script that will run off of CRON to access and process, then delete all these mails. Using something like
Code: Select all
$imap = imap_open("{".$server."/pop3:110/notls}INBOX", $user, $pass) or die (imap_last_error());This works fine on the test mail box (with only 10 emails in it), but fails with the error
Code: Select all
POP3 connection broken as responseTo compound the issue, they recently changed their protcols so that now, all mailings come from listname@domain.com, so there are now 5 mailboxes to manage in this way.
All I need to do is get access to the mail box, use a preg to find a couple of ID's that should be in the headers (part of the outgoing mail) and then write them to a database, along with the bounce headers. If the code isn't found then its logged as an unknown and deleted.
Any suggestions?
