imap problem

[bouboul]

Dear people,

I am currently doing a mini assignment on web based email systems
using php 3.015 with imap install. The problem is, i cannot locate the
location of the imap server in my server. It gives a "couldn't open
stream {localhost/imap}" when i tried to access it. Do i have to
1. Install the imap installation and configure it accordingly? (cp
c-client.a etc...)
2. use $PHP_AUTH_USER authentication instead of form inputs?

Thanks for ur time people!

you'll probably have to install the imap

the forms can handle the login / password type stuff...no need for other authentication..
