I want to retrieve the last 10 messages from gmail account and display them in a page. I have the following so far:
<?php
ini_set('display_errors',1);
ini_set('display_startup_errors',1);
error_reporting(-1);
/* connect to gmail */
$user = '****@gmail.com';
$password = '******';
$mailbox = "{imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl}INBOX";
?>
<?php
$mbx = imap_open($mailbox , $user , $password);
$sorted = imap_sort($mbx,SORTDATE, 1);
print_r($sorted);
/* grab emails */
$emails = imap_search($mbx, 'SINCE "10 Feb 2015"');
/* if emails are returned, cycle through each... */
if($emails) {
/* begin output var */
$output = '';
?>
<table class="table table-bordered table-hover">
<tr>
<th>From</th>
<th>Date</th>
<th>Subject</th>
</tr>
<?php
/* for every email... */
foreach($emails as $email_number) {
/* get information specific to this email */
$overviews = imap_fetch_overview($mbx,$email_number,0);
?>
<?php
/* put the newest emails on top.Doesnt work.*/
// rsort($overviews);
print_r($overviews);
foreach($overviews as $overview)
{
?>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $overview->from; ?></td>
<td><?php echo $overview->date; ?></td>
<td><a href="open.php?id=<?php echo $overview->uid; ?>"><?php echo $overview->subject; ?></a></td>
</tr>
<?php
}
}
}
?>
</table>
</body>
</html>I see a post here but I'm having a hard time understanding how the poster is using variables $date & $search_criteria to get at solving the problem. I see how imap_sort returns an array of msgnos but having a hard making the leap to how I can use $sorted[] to then print out last 10 sorted emails by date.Thanks for any input
