IMAP and attachments

[Mirage]

Hi guys, ive been playing with PHP for over a year on and off. Coming from a Cold Fusion background I found the move easy.

Anyway, I have decided to make a webmail app using PHP and have a question. I have figured out pretty much everything I need to make this work (looks and works very good) but I am having a problem figuring out how to check for and view attachments.

Its probably right in front of my nose and I cant see it. Can someone tell me or point me in the right direction so I can know how to check for this? I have the WROX book but it is absolutely useless at this point.

this code is from php.net IMAP documentation user comments. credit goes to "y dot daradkeh at gmail dot com"

<?php

$mbox = imap_open("$imap_server".$f,$name,$pass);

// delibertely choose a message with an attachment

$info = imap_fetchstructure($mbox, $mno);

// find out how may parts the object has
$numparts = count($info->parts);

$i=0;
// find if multipart message
if ($numparts >1)
{
   echo "<b>More than one part</b><br><br>";

   foreach ($info->parts as $part)
   {
     if ($part->disposition == "INLINE")
         printf("Inline message has %s lines<BR>", $part->lines);
     elseif ($part->disposition == "attachment")
     {
       $i++;
       echo $i." Attachment/s found!<br>";
       echo "Filename: ".$part->dparameters[0]->value."<br><br>";
     }
   }
}
else
   echo "Only one part";

imap_close($mbox);
?>

hopefully that can help you figure out how to get the attachments.
