I am looking for a solution to extract emails and contacts from an IMAP email server like MS Exchange or Gmail and then load the emails and contact information against another system using the API from the other system.
For example:
I have an inhouse MS Exchange server
I have a Workflowmax.com CRM solution

I want to associate the emails from Ms exchange with the CRM contacts in Workflowmax as notes.

The system needs to handle multiple email accounts
It needs to check for duplicates
It needs to associate sent and received emails
It should be able to be setup as a polling system that checks based on a user frequency setting (ie every minute, every hour)

We are looking for a developer who can assist us to develop a PHP script for a support system that can fetch email from a mail account (such as gMail and/or IMAP ), store the message, header in a mysql table and remove email from server.

The script must also be able to collect the attachments and save the attachments to a folder on the server and the attachments are to be linked to the said message.

The system must recognise if the ticketid is in the subject line and checks to see if we have already got the id within the system.

We are not opened to be using a webmail app as this is needed to complete a support system that we have been developing for a client.

We would like the html messages to be converted to plain text so, strip out all the html code.

We have already got a table setup but may need to be altered.

I am needing a script or program to download attachments from an IMAP SSL account on my mail server.

1. The script / program must run on Linux and you must provide source code. I prefer PHP or Perl.
2. The IMAP account must be accessed with SSL
3. The script must be run from CLI, no HTML please. I need to run the script daily from a scheduled task (cron).
4. Attachments must be saved in a directory I designate.
5. Attachments will be large, 7+ MB.
6. After all attachemnt are downloaded I need all email to be deleted from mail server.

You will not have access to our Linux server, you will have to provide your own testing environment. I will provide the mail account that the script will be pulling attachments from.

Please be confident that you can complete this project in a timely manor and that you have dealt with email in the past.

I have already had 2 other programers work on this and still don’t have a program that I am confident that it works properly.

Mozilla Thunderbird automatically synchronises (downloads full emails OR downloads headers) the INBOX folder for each IMAP account. This behaviour is undesirable for users who want to synchronise only specific IMAP folders.

We would like someone to develop a bugfix that addresses this bug as following:
1. Setting to skip synchronisation of INBOX folder – either in Account Settings (as per screenshot), or in another suitable place.
2. When setting is ON, Thunderbird must NOT download anything into the INBOX folder.

Project will be deemed successfully completed if a functional add-on is developed or if bugfix is accepted in next Thunderbird release.

See Bugzilla for more info: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=532447.

Screenshot (see attachment) shows mock-up of possible implementation in Mozilla Thunderbird.

Programmer retains all bragging rights to contributing to Mozilla open source code. We just want the functionality implemented.

An already working PHP script for retrieving emails using PHP IMAP needs functionality for storing email attachments on server.

* All file types / MIME types must be supported
* Error handling (if saving an attachment fails, this needs to be sent to an admin)
* File names must be safely encrypted
* Attachments must be registered in a database table (MySQL), linking each attachment to its file, an

I want a working whoto guide written for installing and setting up postfix, dovecote IMAP mail on CentOS 5.4 x64. The guide must be complete and include all the required dependancies and .conf requirements. The features I want are:

- Postfix set up and installation via YUM
- smtp authentication
- secure smtp using TLS from remote site
- non-secure smtp from localhost so that emails can be sent using my current php scripts
- Dovecot: imap and pop3 mailbox service
- secure imap and pop3
- mysql: haldle all the virtual domains and users
- PostfixAdmin: GUI for domain administration

There are some guides out there that almost work, if I had the time I would go through and work out what needs to be updated. I will pay a 20% bonus if the guide is complete and works first time.

Hi, I already have a customer management application that i’ve made in php. The thing that I want, is to link the emails that I got in my IMAP server to my client so I can see history in their own client profile.

So let’s say that Staphany wrote me a message, it’s in her profile, so if I clic on her name, a popup appear and I can see all the emails she sent me and all the ones that i’ve answered to her.

I use outlook to send and receive emails, but the application that I need is just to see the history email of a particular client.

tks

I am trying to connect to a IMAP mail server through PHP to send emails from my PHP script.

So far I can connect to the IMAP server, and see how many messages are in the mailbox, but when I use imap_mail the mail is sent from my PHP server, not the imap server I am connected to. I need someone to figure out how to send the mail from the imap server using PHP on my server. Code I have so far: http://mafia-rpg.com/code/mail.txt

Hello!

I am not sure if anybody here has experience with the following problem.

I use confixx for server administration and postfix client for emails.
Server uses Debian.

It is possible to setup domains in confixx and they will be configured in postfix automatically after setting them up.

I have read several “howtos” (all in German) about replacing postfix with dovecot to use pop3 AND imap (depending what user wants)in Confixx. The server is a production server so it is extremely important not only to keep the mail downtime as short as possible, also it is a must to have a functioning system within a very short time frame without losing any data or broken email accounts.

If you have good experience with the listed configuration please bid.

If you have any questions you can bid too.

Hi I have an ubuntu machine and I need imap and php to be working on it.

This should be an easy job for any good linux admin.
Which is not me!

please use keyword p.i.m.p when bidding.

and send me a message
with your linux experience.

Build a command line daemon/proxy that will sit between Apple Mail and an IMAP server on port 143. The goal is to resolve a bug in Apple Mail that prevents IMAP updates.

Problem:
When Apple Mail connects to some IMAP servers, it can not maintain IDLE status. My understanding is that Apple Mail does not fully support RFC 3501 section 7. What will happen, is on first launch of Apple Mail, new IMAP mail will come in. For a brief period of time, new mails arrive, with no user intervention at all.

Eventually, this will break, Apple Mail will go deaf. The IMAP connections are still kept alive to the server, but no new emails will come in. You must quit Apple Mail, and launch it again in order to have your emails come in. Clicking “Get Mail” does not work either.

I believe most email servers have this issue, and have provided a work around in their server software. The server I have access to will never provide such a workaround.

Solution:
I am looking for a small simple proxy that does one thing. I will need a proxy app/daemon. You can implement it however you desire. All that matters, is that it will intercept whatever is going wrong, and fix it, or notice whatever is lacking, and solve it.

The proxy should run all the time, started from launchd. it will be fine to be only OS X 10.5 compatible, though I do not see a reason why it will not run on lower OS’s.

Notes:
You should have access to OS X and Apple Mail of course. I will provide you an IMAP account for testing. I imagine this can be solved in perl, or bash, though you can use whatever tools you desire, as long as this proxy can be distributed and run standalone.

Please Note
This project has a medium/hard level of difficulty and therefore requires an experienced developer to complete the work. Whilst some projects can be completed by aspiring developers this project requires the attention of a skilled professional. Therefore please do not even bid on this project unless you read the complete brief and understand everything from the outset.
All work will be thoroughly tested and payment will not be released until the system works as specified.
Brief Description:
The requirement is to have an email enquiry management system. The component will be an administrator based Joomla component written in native Joomla 1.5 format. The component is to be written using modern MVC Joomla component methods and delivered as a complete Joomla installable component (e.g. tarball or zip). The component must perform many functions including the reading, validating, reformatting, distribution and management of email enquiries.

The component will need to read emails from pre-defined pop3/imap mailboxes as they arrive or frequently and then process each one.

For each email the following 4 steps should be taken

1. Validation stage 1
2. Reformatting
3. Validation stage 2
4. Distribution

If the process fails at any point, the information should be saved to the DB and marked for manual intervention. If the process fails at any point, an email should also be sent to the administrator’s email address telling them to log in and manage the problem. A user will then log into the admin interface and manually manage any emails that failed the above process.
Interfaces
Apart from the actual processes involved in reading, validating and sending leads, this component requires many interfaces to setup and manage all the records that the system uses in the process. A brief list of interfaces required is listed below: -

I have a script that show my message from gmail to my site. The problem:
Can you modify, so I can see the message exactly same like when I see it in gmail? (show css, images, etc)

I need this quickly
