Akula_dude Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 My goal is to get a script to edit/create a file from an email. php mail() functions only send mail, not recieve, and anything else i;ve fouond doesnt work. It must be possible, i figure that's how webmail works, I just cant find any help on the web. Any tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePsion5 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Well, I believe what you need at this point is something PHP can use to interact with a mail server...I've never had to do anything like that but i'd check out the list of PEAR extensions to PHP here, and possibly check sourceforge. Sorry I can't be of more assistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akula_dude Posted August 21, 2006 Author Share Posted August 21, 2006 Wow, thanks. Speedy reply Question: what's AJAX? client/server side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aspnetguy Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 AJAX is a combo of JavaScript and XML ...it allows javascript to execute server functions (PHP) without refreshing the page. This allows for great UI effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
