Mail parsing via Ez Components

Get started with EZ Components:

After spending ma 24hrs I landed on a blog where the guys have an excellent tutorial series to get started with Ez components in detail so skim it first here you go [1] Hello World![2]  Send an Email[3] RSS feed creation.

sudo apt-get install apache2

sudo apt-get install php5

sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Pear Package Manager installation on Linux:

lynx -source http://pear.php.net/go-pear | php

sudo apt-get install lynx-cur

sudo apt-get install php5-cli

Ez Component using Pear Installed

pear channel-discover components.ez.no
pear install -a ezc/eZComponents

Setup include_path

Navigate to the following files and append the root PEAR directory.

/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
/etc/php5/cli/php.ini

include_path=”.:/var/www/path/to/root/PEAR”

At the top of the code you wrote using ez libs

require_once(“ezc/Base/base.php”);  //depend of the installation method either pear or svn
function __autoload( $className )
{
ezcBase::autoload( $className );
}

Pre-requisites:

1. Xampp
2. Ez Components

Task 1: Receiving and Parsing emails:

In the code below we are going to receive emails from a remote server and parse it’s parts. Moreover we’ll tear down the attached files and move them to a separate directory for later processing.

<?php
$dir = dirname( __FILE__ );
require_once “$dir/../../ezcomponents-2009/Mail/docs/tutorial/tutorial_autoload.php”;

$options = new ezcMailPop3TransportOptions();
$options->ssl = true;
$pop3 = new ezcMailPop3Transport( “pop.gmail.com”, 995, $options  );
$pop3->authenticate( “sendmarks@gmail.com”, “cubesatlover” );
$pop3->status( $num, $size );
$messages = $pop3->listMessages();
$set = $pop3->fetchAll();
$parser = new ezcMailParser();
$mail = $parser->parseMail( $set );

//echo print_r($mail);

for ( $i = 0; $i < count( $mail ); $i++ )
{
echo formatMail( $mail[$i] );
