Imap_open fucntion

Hi Guys

 

I have searched the forums and the net to try and find a soluction for the problem.

 

Basically I want to be able to open a mailbox, retrieve the mail in the box and then read the contents of each email. All pretty straightforward according to the manual. So following things diligently I used the IMAP_OPEN function. all I ever get is

 

Warning: Couldn't open stream {mail.mailserver.com:110/POP3/tls}INBOX

 

I have tried various combinations of of :110/POP3/notls etc. ect. adn I still get the same warning message

 

I have tried telnetting adn all I get is can't open connection to the host. But using outlook I can retreive the mail I want to.

 

my guess is this is either a firewall or network problem. there seems to be loads of issues with imap_open on the net adn I've tried all of them to no avail. so if anyone has any handy tips or hints they would be most welcome

 

thanks in advance
