imap_mail_move — Verschiebt Nachrichten in ein anderes Postfach
imap_mail_move() verschiebt die mit
message_nums
angegebenen Nachrichten in das Postfach
mailbox
. Es ist zu beachten, dass die Nachrichten in
Wirklichkeit in das Postfach mailbox
kopiert werden
und die ursprünglichen Nachrichten zum Löschen markiert werden. Das
bedeutet, dass die Nachrichten in mailbox
neue UIDs
zugewiesen bekommen.
imap
Eine IMAP\Connection-Instanz.
message_nums
message_nums
ist keine Liste von
Nachrichtennummern, sondern ein Nachrichtenbereich (wie in
» RFC2060 beschrieben).
mailbox
Das Zielpostfach, für weitere Informationen siehe imap_open()
Die Übergabe von nicht vertrauenswürdigen Daten an diesen Parameter ist unsicher,falls imap.enable_insecure_rsh nicht deaktiviert ist.
flags
flags
ist eine Bitmaske und kann zur Zeit nur
eine Option enthalten:
CP_UID
- die Nummern der Nachrichten sind UIDs
Gibt bei Erfolg true
zurück. Bei einem Fehler wird false
zurückgegeben.

Der Parameter imap erwartet nun eine
IMAP\Connection-Instanz; vorher wurde eine gültige
imap -Ressource erwartet.

Hinweis:
imap_mail_move() setzt für die Original-Nachricht ein Lösch-Flag. Um sie erfolgreich zu löschen, muss die Funktion imap_expunge() aufgerufen werden.

I 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.

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.
