$inbox = imap_open($hostname,$username,$password) or die('Cannot connect to Gmail: ' . imap_last_error());

$emails = imap_search($inbox,'ALL');

if($emails) { 

  $output = ''; 
  rsort($emails);

  foreach($emails as $email_number) { 

    $overview = imap_fetch_overview($inbox,$email_number,0);
    $message = imap_fetchbody($inbox,$email_number,2);

    $output.= '<div class="toggler '.($overview[0]->seen ? 'read' : 'unread').'">';
    $output.= '<span class="subject">'.$overview[0]->subject.'</span> ';
    $output.= '<span class="from">'.$overview[0]->from.'</span>';
    $output.= '<span class="date">on '.$overview[0]->date.'</span>';
    $output.= '</div>';

    $output.= '<div class="body">'.$message.'</div>';
  } 
  echo $output;
} 

imap_close($inbox);


 

this code is not working, returns this when i try to execute.

 

Warning: imap_open() [function.imap-open]: Couldn't open stream {imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl}INBOX in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/gmailconnection.php on line 9
Cannot connect to Gmail: Can't open mailbox {imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl}INBOX: invalid remote specification
Notice: Unknown: Can't open mailbox {imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl}INBOX: invalid remote specification (errflg=2) in Unknown on line 0
