Description
-----------

[](#description)

Laravel IMAP is an easy way to integrate both the native php-imap module and an extended custom imap protocol into your **Laravel** app. This enables your app to not only respond to new emails but also allows it to read and parse existing mails and much more.

Official documentation: [php-imap.com/frameworks/laravel](https://www.php-imap.com/frameworks/laravel/installation)

- Legacy (&lt; v2.0.0): [legacy documentation](https://github.com/Webklex/laravel-imap/tree/1.6.2#table-of-contents)
- Core documentation: [php-imap.com](https://www.php-imap.com/)

Basic usage example
-------------------

[](#basic-usage-example)

This is a basic example, which will echo out all Mails within all imap folders and will move every message into INBOX.read. Please be aware that this should not be tested in real life and is only meant to gives an impression on how things work.

```
/** @var \Webklex\PHPIMAP\Client $client */
$client = Webklex\IMAP\Facades\Client::account('default');

//Connect to the IMAP Server
$client->connect();

//Get all Mailboxes
/** @var \Webklex\PHPIMAP\Support\FolderCollection $folders */
$folders = $client->getFolders();

//Loop through every Mailbox
/** @var \Webklex\PHPIMAP\Folder $folder */
foreach($folders as $folder){

    //Get all Messages of the current Mailbox $folder
    /** @var \Webklex\PHPIMAP\Support\MessageCollection $messages */
    $messages = $folder->messages()->all()->get();

    /** @var \Webklex\PHPIMAP\Message $message */
    foreach($messages as $message){
        echo $message->getSubject().'';
        echo 'Attachments: '.$message->getAttachments()->count().'';
        echo $message->getHTMLBody();

        //Move the current Message to 'INBOX.read'
        if($message->move('INBOX.read') == true){
            echo 'Message has ben moved';
        }else{
            echo 'Message could not be moved';
        }
    }
}
```
