Question about IMAP Email Stuff

[rckehoe]

 

I am building an IMAP email program in php. It is going well... But, I can't seem to download an email message that is over 3mb... I have some ideas how to get around the problem, but I want to know what is the most efficient way of doing this.

 

Here is my script in a nut-shell...

 

<?PHP Nutshell

 

for loop{

Download Mail and put it into a MySql database... blah blah

}

 

?>

 

Now... again, the problem I am having is when it comes to messages that are larger than 3mb. They usually only get this large with attachments.

 

Any help or advice is appreciated.

 

Thanks
