XLIII. IMAP, POP3 그리고 NNTP 함수

이 함수를 작동시키려면, --with-imap 옵션으로 PHP를 컴파일해야 한다. 이 옵션은 c-client 라이브러리가 요구된다. ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/imap/으로부터 최신 버전을 내려받아 컴파일 하시오. 그리고 c-client/c-client.a파일을 /usr/local/lib/libc-client.a로,또는 다른 링크 경로에 복사하시오. c-client/rfc822.h, mail.h 과 linkage.h를 /usr/local/include이나 다른 include경로에 복사하시오.

이 함수는 그 이름에도 불구하고, IMAP 프로토콜에만 한정되어 있지 않다. 이함수의 기초를 이루는 c-client 라이브러리는 또한 NNTP, POP3 그리고 로컬 메일함 접근 메쏘드를 지원한다.

이 문서는 여기서 제공되는 함수에 관계된 모든 주제를 설명 할 수는 없다. 더 자세한 정보는 c-client 라이브러리 소스의 문서에 제공된다 (docs/internal.txt). 그리고 다음 RFC 문서들도 이와 관련된 정보를 제공한다:

RFC821: Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP).
RFC822: Standard for ARPA internet text messages.
RFC2060: Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) Version 4rev1.
RFC1939: Post Office Protocol Version 3 (POP3).
RFC977: Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP).
RFC2076: Common Internet Message Headers.
RFC2045 , RFC2046 , RFC2047 , RFC2048 & RFC2049: Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME).

더 자세한 사항은 David Wood씨가 저술한 Programming Internet Email 과 Dianna Mullet씨와 Kevin Mullet씨가 같이 저술한 Managing IMAP를 참고하시오.

Building Apache2, PHP and IMAP requires a shareable version

of the c-client library, but the standard UW code doesn't provide one.

I couldn't find any way to build with the libc-client.a without generating piles of relocation errors. (gcc on Solaris 10)



The IMAP c-client library can be built shareable with the following steps:

1. fix the Makefile in .../imap-2004/c-client to include:

BASECFLAGS="-fPIC -O3"

2. make 

3. mkdir tmp

4. cd tmp

5. ar xv ../c-client.a  (to extract the .o files)

6. gcc -shared -o c-client.so *.o  (to create the .so library)

7. copy that c-client.so to /usr/local/imap/lib/libc-client.so

    (it may be necessary to hide the libc-client.a)

8. configure PHP ; make; make install

if you are on SuSE9.3 64 and still compiling errors you have to add the -fPIC flag to the  EXTRACFLAGS in imap-Makefile.

Mac OS X client install notes with DarwinPorts



The c-client.a isn't present on your system after you've installed the imap-uw package. !But! it's actually present at a specific time during the install phase as it's being complied from source - it's just deleted at the end of the compilation process. So, we'll have to break the install process down into it's component processes and get hold of what we need at the appropriate time:



sudo port fetch imap-uw

sudo port extract imap-uw

sudo port patch imap-uw

sudo port configure imap-uw

sudo port build imap-uw

imapLib=/darwinports/var/db/dports/distfiles/imap-uw/lib

imapIncludes=/darwinports/var/db/dports/distfiles/imap-uw/include

sudo mkdir ${imapLib} ${imapInclude}

cd /darwinports/var/db/dports/build/*/*/*/c-client

sudo cp *.c ${imapLib}

sudo cp *.h ${imapIncludes}

sudo cp c-client.a ${imapLib}/libc-client.a

cd ${imapLib}

ranlib - libc-client.a

sudo port install imap-uw



Now, you can just specify:

    --with-imap=/darwinports/var/db/dports/distfiles/imap-uw \

    --with-imap-ssl=/darwinports \

in your ./configure command.

Install note for FreeBSD:



If you get this:



/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/php/20041030/imap.so: Undefined symbol "ssl_onceonlyinit"



...in your httpd-error.log.



It is because you compiled cclient without SSL support.



However. In order for me to get SquirrelMail woorking, I had to install ports/mail/imap-uw with WITHOUT_SSL=yes and same option for ports/mail/cclient. After doing this, I recompiled cclient w/o any options to get SSL support, and then installed posrt/mail/php5-imap.



This works. But if you just want SSL everywhere - install imap-uw normally, which will install cclient too. After that, install php5-imap normally as well - and you have a working system with SSL.



Hope this saves more people from wasting too much time like I just did ;)

If you are having difficulty compiling on netbsd from source and want imap support then you should know that the c-client library is compiled with kerberos support.  Unfortunately gssapi_krb5 and k5crypto is not on the system (or at least wasn't for me).  I didn't have administrative level access to add these libraries so I had to do the following.  I still have to test that it worked 100% but at least it compiled without complaining.



Comment the following segments from the configure script.



Segment 1 -- test for gssapi_krb5 library



  case gssapi_krb5 in

  c|c_r|pthread*) ;;

  *)

    if test "$ext_shared" = "yes"; then

        IMAP_SHARED_LIBADD="$IMAP_SHARED_LIBADD -lgssapi_krb5"

    else

 

 

  case gssapi_krb5 in

  c|c_r|pthread*) ;;

  *)

      LIBS="$LIBS -lgssapi_krb5"

   ;;

  esac



    fi

   ;;

  esac



Segment 2 -- test for k5crypto



  case k5crypto in

  c|c_r|pthread*) ;;

  *)

    if test "$ext_shared" = "yes"; then

        IMAP_SHARED_LIBADD="$IMAP_SHARED_LIBADD -lk5crypto"

    else



  case k5crypto in

  c|c_r|pthread*) ;;

  *)

      LIBS="$LIBS -lk5crypto"

   ;;

  esac



    fi

   ;;

  esac



BTW.  Since I was only compiling for the modules (they have suPHP so I compile all my own modules when I need them) I only dropped this in for the php configure script parameters



./configure --with-imap=shared,xxxxxx --with-kerberos=xxxxxx --with-imap-ssl



This is verified working via an imap test.  One excellent test that I located on the phpbuilder.com site.  Here it is.  Modify the address, port, protocol type, username, and password appropriately.  The post was 5 years old but the script still works fine.  The posters name was "Matthew"

If you like me disvoer that "make slx" fails, but you're damn sure you've openssl installed then, it might be that the lib and include paths on your distro are different then the defaults provided in the imap-2004a (or imap-XXXXx). To modify go to dir ../imap-2004a/src/osdep/unix and edit the section (shown below) in the Makefile



# Extended flags needed for SSL.  You may need to modify.



#SSLDIR=/usr/local/ssl

SSLDIR=/etc/ssl

SSLCERTS=$(SSLDIR)/certs

SSLKEYS=$(SSLCERTS)

#SSLINCLUDE=$(SSLDIR)/include

SSLINCLUDE=/usr/include/openssl

#SSLLIB=$(SSLDIR)/lib

SSLLIB=/usr/lib



SSLCRYPTO=-lcrypto



Commented out SSLDIR, SSLINCLUDE and SSLIB are defaults and the uncommented are valid paths for Slackware (10.0/10.1).

You should also check your ld.so.conf for valid paths.

Note that is not not necessary to disable SSL in the IMAP compile to make it work with PHP 5.0.3.



1. Compile IMAP with SSL support for your system:



cd /path/to/imap/source/

make <system type> (ldb, lnx, etc)

mkdir include

mkdir lib



2. Make links in IMAP source directory: 



cd /path/to/imap/source/c-client

cp *.h ../include/

cp *.c ../lib/

cp c-client.a ../lib/libc-client.a



3. Compile PHP with SSL support,  --with-imap=/path/to/imap/source/ . If SSL support fails, you'll get a configure-time error that IMAP doesn't work. This is a lie, you just need to get SSL support working in PHP. On certain linux systems, with OpenSSL 0.9.7, this means adding --with-openssl=/usr (if the OpenSSL files are in /usr/include/openssl/) instead of the proper directory containing the OpenSSL files. For some reason, giving a parent directory makes PHP able to find the OpenSSL include files.



4. PHP should build. 



Alternately, you can disable SSL during the IMAP build, as per the previous directions posted here.

I faced problem in compiling imap with php-5.0.2 release version. Then following commands on snapshot version solved my problem



# tar -zxvf imap-2004b.DEV.tar.Z

# cd imap-2004b.DEV.SNAP-0411051435/

I have a pretty much stock set-up of SuSE 8.1 Personal (Apache, PHP et al built by me) and IMAP-2004 refused to build for me.



What I found was, using the make lsu (for SuSE) almost worked built I was getting odd build results, i.e. make failures.



The problem? GCC 3.2. If you don't have an older GCC available, please install one! I installed the gcc_old package from SuSE and built with the following command:



CC=gcc297 make lsu SSLTYPE=none



The result was a perfect build. So if you are getting errors, please try an earlier build of GCC.

For compiling this extension without compiling imap from sources I did (this was mandrake):



Install the following rpms:

imap

imap-devel

openssl

openssl-devel

krb5

krb5-devel

pam

pam-devel



Do the trick:

# mkdir /usr/include/imap/lib

# cp /usr/lib/libc-client-PHP4.a /usr/include/imap/lib/libc-client.a



And the configure line:

./configure <options> --with-imap=/usr/include/imap --with-imap-ssl



(don't forget --enable-pear ;)

"From the c-client directory from your IMAP source tree, copy all the *.h files into include/ and all the *.c files into lib/. Additionally when you compiled IMAP, a file named c-client.a was created. Also put this in the lib/ directory but rename it as libc-client.a. 

"



A. Please do not copy rather make symbolic links like this:

ln -s c-client include

ln -s c-client lib



B. You do not need to copy c-client.a to libc-client.a.

The make command used to compile the imap-2002e source code creates the symbolic link from c-client.a to libc-client.a



The imap client version used for the above two points is:

1. imap-2002e



my 2 cents,

Additionally to Mauricio's procedure; You must check the Makefile to find the correct system type that you are compiling on. Mauricio's example assumes you are using Linux. -Check the README for imap-xxxx for further details.

Additionally to Mauricio's procedure, I had to make a symlink to the c-client library this way:



cd imap-xxxx/c-client

ln -s c-client.a libc-client.a



(Tested with imap-200e)

A tip for imap support installation:



With SSL support:

------------------

tar -zxf imap-xxxxx.tar.Z

cd imap-xxxxx

make slx

ln -sf c-client include

ln -sf c-client lib

cd ..

tar -jxf php-4.3.x.tar.bz2

cd php-4.3.x

./configure --with-imap=../imap-xxxxx --with-imap-ssl=/path-to-openssl



With out SSL support:

---------------------

tar -zxf imap-xxxxx.tar.Z

cd imap-xxxxx

make slx SSLTYPE=none

ln -sf c-client include

ln -sf c-client lib

cd ..

tar -jxf php-4.3.x.tar.bz2

cd php-4.3.x

./configure --with-imap=../imap-xxxxx



Good Luck

I experienced a problem when adding IMAP support into PHP.  The php configure script would die when trying to see if "IMAP Works..." and the config.log would complain about libc-client.a references.  

It was similar to the problem reported here: 

http://lists.horde.org/archives/imp/Week-of-Mon-20030915/034692.html  



I resolved it by compiling IMAP like this (replace <ARCH> with the proper OS type for your system, get that from the top of the Makefile):



make <ARCH> SSLTYPE=none



That turned off the SSL support in the IMAP files and seemed to resolve my php compile problem.



BTW, I also followed the directions about making a new /usr/local/imap... directory that are mentioned at the top of the page.

After having numerous problems compiling PHP with IMAP support, both PHP problems and IMAP problems I found this simple solution to the problem, which I've tried with several versions of IMAP and all worked perfectly!



tar -zxf imap-xxxxx.tar.Z

cd imap-xxxxx

make slx

ln -sf c-client include

ln -sf c-client lib

cd ..

tar -jxf php-4.3.x.tar.bz2

cd php-4.3.x

./configure --with-imap=../imap-xxxxx



It worked everytime for me, hope it does for you!

The only c-client that has worked 100% with php is



ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/imap/old/imap-2001.FINAL.tar.Z



DO NOT DOWNLOAD 2002 B its BUGGY!

Beware!

If you are trying to make a connection with POP3 mailbox,then some of IMAP functions will not work correctly as you might expecting .This is because the difference of workings in POP3 and IMAP protocols.

These functions work correctly for IMAP mailboxes but some of the fnctions will return nothing, when connected to a POP3 mailbox.(even no error message).

please don't copy the .h files in the system include directory! the unix.h file from the washington.edu c-client conflicts with another file called unix.h

make a dir called "imap" in either /usr/include or /usr/local/include or whatever you wish, copy the header files there and the .a file prefix'ish in /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib or whatever you used for the include files.

then tell configure with --with-imap=/usr the "prefix" of your installation. 

then works without problem ;)

I just found something a bit bizarre.  I was having problems with the pages taking too long to load (15-20sec) when they opened an imap connection.  I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out what was wrong.





Turns out it was quite simple.  I was letting it default to 143 for the port.  When i specified the port number (i.e. {localhost:143} rather than {localhost} )  It reduced page load time to a few seconds.

I have found the order in which you connect to you POP server with IMAP 2000 and your database with PostgreSQL 7.1.2 can cause problems.





Make sure that you connect first to your POP server then get your db connection. This will prevent you from getting an invalid stream from imap_open().
