Re: [PHP] is it possible to retrieve email from HOTMAIL
I wonder if it is possible to retrieve emails from an email account say in hotmail, yahoo, or any other email provider. silly hah ..? Thanx in advance. EXPLAINING MY IDEA (in other words): I mean making a script that goes to my email in, say Hotmail, and get all the messages and store them in a database on my own site. so that when I or any subscribed user in the site enters his account, he finds new messages directed to him. Of course the email here is an email account on the server of the hosting company of the site. I hope my exlanation does not need an explanation. _ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You can open a connection to any server with fsockopen() and then send data with fgets(). It should be possible because a web browser works on telnet port 80, so there is no reason why you should be able to do it in PHP. The thing you need to know is what kind of conversation the script needs to have with the server. Try accessing the site in telnet port 80 and see what happens.
