to get right the folders names for imap_mail_move/imap_mail_copy, do not guess, instead use imap_list
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
imap_mail_move — Перемещает указанные сообщения в указанный почтовый ящик
Перемещает письма, заданные в параметре message_nums
в указанный в параметре mailbox почтовый ящик.
Обратите внимание, что почтовые сообщения фактически копируются
в ящик mailbox, а исходные сообщения помечаются для удаления.
Это означает, что сообщениям в ящикам mailbox назначаются новые UID.
imapЭкземпляр класса IMAP\Connection.
message_nums
message_nums - это диапазон, а не просто номера сообщений
(как определено в » RFC2060).
mailboxИмя почтового ящика. Более подробно читайте в разделе, посвящённом функции imap_open()
Передача в этот параметр непроверенных данных небезопасна, если включили директиву imap.enable_insecure_rsh.
flags
flags - битовая маска, которая может принимать всего одно
значение:
CP_UID - означает, что в первом параметре не номера
сообщений, а их UID
Функция возвращает true в случае успешного выполнения или false, если возникла ошибка.

Параметр imap теперь ожидает экземпляр класса IMAP\Connection;
раньше параметр ждал ресурс (resource) imap.

Замечание:
Функция imap_mail_move() помечает оригинальное сообщение флагом удаления, так что не забудьте после неё вызвать функцию imap_expunge().
to get right the folders names for imap_mail_move/imap_mail_copy, do not guess, instead use imap_listI had the most trouble with figureing out what the message list was supposed to be. There was one comment by jan@showstar.com but i was still terribly confused. So I searched and searched and searched. I read rfc2060 over 10 times. Then BAM! My brother found it here:
http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/cgi-bin/rfc/rfc2060.html#sec-6.4.7
Here is the importand stuff.
Another important field is the SEQUENCE, which identifies a set of messages by consecutive numbers from 1 to n where n is the number of messages in the mailbox. A sequence may consist of a single number, a pair of numbers delimited by colon (equivalent to all numbers between those two numbers), or a list of single numbers or number pairs. For example, the sequence 2,4:7,9,12:15 is equivalent to
2,4,5,6,7,9,12,13,14,15 and identifies all those messages.
There is what I know about it. BAM!To copy/move a mail in Gmail to a particular Folder like Starred/Spam/Drafts/Trash
use the following statement and don't forget to call CL_EXPUNGE or imap_expunge($mbox) after it.
<?php
imap_mail_copy($mbox,'16','[Gmail]/Starred'); // 16 is the message number, which can also be a range.(ex: '1:15')
imap_close($mbox,CL_EXPUNGE);
?>
Incase u want to send it to a personally created Label/folder(ex: Test) use..
<?php
imap_mail_copy($mbox,'16','Test');
imap_expunge($mbox);
imap_close($mbox);
?>After using imap_mail_move, imap_mail_copy or imap_delete it is necesary to call imap_expunge() function.to complete the previous example, if the mbox/folders names are
{imap.free.fr}INBOX
{imap.free.fr}INBOX/draft
{imap.free.fr}INBOX/test
and you want to copy/move from INBOX to INBOX/test this is the syntax:
$mbox = imap_open("{imap.free.fr}INBOX",$mailuser,$mailpass)
or die("can't connect: ".imap_last_error());
...
imap_mail_move($mbox,$messageset,"INBOX/test");
Hope this could help !This function works, just not like everything else IMAP in PHP3... rather than feeding the server {server.ext/type:port}folder just feed it the folder's name.To move mails via IMAP on an Exchange Server into "Gel?schte Objekte" use:
imap_mail_move($mbox, $delmsg, "Gel&APY-schte Objekte");
It took me some tcpdumping to get this out, since both
imap_utf7_encode and
imap_utf8
did not translate it right.
GuardnBear in mind your mailbox space Quota may become triggered while attempting to batch move a significant quantity of large size messages.
This is because a DUPLICATE of each 'moved' message is made, complete with a fresh UID / sequence no for each one. This of course takes up mailbox space. These duplicates remain until the next imap_expunge() is executed.Be aware that this function returning TRUE doesn't necessarily mean anything actually happened.
It counts as "success" if all messages matching the range you supply were moved; however that includes if there were _no_ matching messages to move.
So suppose you supply a sequence-number or UID that's invalid, e.g. because it's no longer present in the source folder:
<?php
$res = imap_mail_move($stream, '99999', 'DestFolder', CP_UID);
var_dump($res); // bool(true)
?>
It's up to you to validate the desired message(s) before moving, and/or afterwards.I offer the following example because it took me HOURS to figure this out
<?php
$this->mailInBox = imap_open($this->mailConnectString."INBOX", $this->accountLogin, $this->accountPassword);
$this->messageCount = imap_num_msg($this->mailInBox);
echo "Processing " . $this->messageCount . " messages:<Br>";
for ($i = 1; $i <= $this->messageCount; ++$i) {
$header = imap_header($this->mailInBox, $i);
$prettydate = date("jS F Y", $header->udate);
$fromHost = $header->from[0]->host;
if (isset($header->from[0]->personal)) {
$personal = $header->from[0]->personal;
} else {
$personal = $header->from[0]->mailbox;
}
$body = imap_fetchbody($this->mailInBox, $i, "1.1");
if ($body == "") {
$body = imap_fetchbody($this->mailInBox, $i, "1");
}
$move = "INBOX.processed" . date("Ymd");
echo "trying to move:" . $i . "<br>";
@imap_mail_move($this->mailInBox, $i, $move);
}
?>This keeps biting me time after time. A lot of IMAP servers with quotas don't implement 'move' right - they do a 'copy&delete' instead and don't recognize that this conflicts with their quota implementetions. So, if you try to move a large message, you'll exceed your quota even though moving it does not increase the total size of your mailbox. This is not PHP-specific, but I bet it'll bite someone else besides me, so here you go.The syntax for the message list is defined in RFC2060
It is a string, containing a list of message numbers and ranges, separated by commas (no spaces anywhere.) For example, "1,2,5,11:15,19" would be accepted by imap_mail_copy or imap_mail_move.
A range of messages is defined as two message numbers separated by a colon (Ex. "1:10".) Also, a "*" may be used to refer to the last message in a mailbox. (Ex. "1:*" refers to all messages)
Be careful not to use the same mailbox for source and destination, especially if you expunge the mailbox immediately afterwards; the message will be copied (back over itself), flagged as deleted (by the imap_mail_move function), and then expunged.
The following code will move the messages in the $msg_no[] array from the folder in $mbox_name to the folder in $newmbox_name: ($mbox is an already-opened imap stream)
<?php
if ($mbox_name != $newmbox_name) {
reset($msg_no);
$messageset = implode (",",$msg_no);
imap_mail_move($mbox,$messageset,$newmbox_name);
imap_expunge($mbox);
}
?>This function copies the mail and then marks the source as deleted. In order to see the changes, you must imap_expunge the source box.I've used a dot in
imap_mail_move($mbox,$movmsgid,'INBOX.send');
instead of
INBOX/test
and it work's fine.
