-mailparse library for PHP 4
-===========================
-
-This library is build upon the librfc822 and librfc2045 libraries that
-originated from the maildrop component of the courier mail server.
-The copyright for most of the work belongs to Double Precision Inc.,
-although distribution of the library is carried out under the terms of the
-GPL.
-
-Example for PHP:
-=============
-
-$file = "/path/to/rfc822/compliant/message";
-
-$mime = mailparse_rfc2045_parse_file($file);
-$ostruct = mailparse_rfc2045_getstructure($mime);
-foreach($ostruct as $st) {
- $section = mailparse_rfc2045_find($mime, $st);
- $struct[$st] = mailparse_rfc2045_getinfo($section);
-}
-var_dump($struct);
-
-array mailparse_rfc822_parse_addresses(string addresses)
- parses an rfc822 compliant recipient list, such as that found in To: From:
- headers. Returns a indexed array of assoc. arrays for each recipient:
- array(0 => array("display" => "Wez Furlong", "address" => "wez@php.net"))
-
-resource mailparse_rfc2045_create()
- Create a mime mail resource
-
-boolean mailparse_rfc2045_parse(resource mimemail, string data)
- incrementally parse data into the supplied mime mail resource.
- Concept: you can stream portions of a file at a time, rather than read
- and parse the whole thing.
-
-
-resource mailparse_rfc2045_parse_file(string $filename)
- Parse a file and return a $mime resource.
- The file is opened and streamed through the parser.
- This is the optimal way of parsing a mail file that
- you have on disk.
-
-
-array mailparse_rfc2045_getstructure(resource mimemail)
- returns an array containing a list of message parts in the form:
- array("1", "1.1", "1.2")
-
-resource mailparse_rfc2045_find(resource mimemail, string partname)
- returns an mime mail resource representing the named section
-
-array mailparse_rfc2045_getinfo(resource mimemail)
- returns an array containing the bounds, content type and headers of the
- section.
-
-mailparse_rfc2045_extract_file(resource mimemail, string filename[, string
- callbackfunc])
- Extracts/decodes a message section from the supplied filename.
- If no callback func is supplied, it outputs the results into the current
- output buffer, otherwise it calls the callback with a string parameter
- containing the text.
- The contents of the section will be decoded according to their transfer
- encoding - base64, quoted-printable and uuencoded text are supported.
-
-All operations are done incrementally; streaming the input and output so that
-memory usage is on the whole lower than something like procmail or doing this
-stuff in PHP space. The aim is that it stays this way to handle large
-quantities of email.
-
-TODO:
-=====
-
-. Add support for binhex encoding?
-. Extracting a message part without decoding the transfer encoding so that
- eg: pgp-signatures can be verified.
-
-. Work the other way around - build up a rfc2045 compliant message file from
- simple structure information and filenames/variables.
