$imap_stream
, string $criteria
[, int $options = SE_FREE
[, string $charset = NULL
]] ) : arrayThis function performs a search on the mailbox currently opened in the given IMAP stream.
For example, to match all unanswered messages sent by Mom, you'd use: "UNANSWERED FROM mom". Searches appear to be case insensitive. This list of criteria is from a reading of the UW c-client source code and may be incomplete or inaccurate (see also » RFC2060, section 6.4.4).
imap_streamUm stream IMAP retornado por imap_open().
criteria
A string, delimited by spaces, in which the following keywords are
allowed. Any multi-word arguments (e.g.
FROM "joey smith") must be quoted. Results will match
all criteria entries.
options
Valid values for options are
SE_UID, which causes the returned array to
contain UIDs instead of messages sequence numbers.
charsetMIME character set to use when searching strings.
Returns an array of message numbers or UIDs.
Return FALSE if it does not understand the search
criteria or no messages have been found.
