Saving WAV file from a email attachment

[redbrad0]

I am connecting into my email via IMAP and downloading the messages to a mysql database and storing the attachments on a server. This all works fine with images, but if I get a .wav attachment then it does not save correctly for me to open back up at a later time. I thought this might of been a problem with using imap_base64 but it happens even when i remove this code. I have removed a bunch of code to make it easier for someone to see what is going on. I am trying to access the save attachment by just going to http://www.domain.com/_files/contact_us/filename.wav

 

$SaveFileDirectory = "/home/domain/public_html/_files/contact_us/";

//check for new messages
$mailbox = imap_open("{localhost:143/notls}INBOX", "email@address.com", "password")
or die("Can't connect: " . imap_last_error());;

// Check messages
$check = imap_check($mailbox);

if ($check->Nmsgs=='0')	{
echo "There are no messages that need to be downloaded"; 	
}	else	{
$emailIndex = 1;

echo "Processing email " . $emailIndex . "<br>";
$header = imap_header($mailbox, $emailIndex);
print("<PRE>");
print("Header Date : " . $header->Date . "<BR>");
print("Header To : " . $header->to) . "<BR>";
print("Header From : " . $header->from . "<BR>");
print("Header cc : " . $header->cc . "<BR>");
print("Header ReplyTo : " . $header->ReplyTo . "<BR>");
print("Header Subject : " . $header->Subject . "<BR></PRE>");

/* Lets find the email body */
$struct = imap_fetchstructure($mailbox, $emailIndex);
$parts = $struct->parts;
$i = 0;

if (!$parts) { /* Simple message, only 1 piece */
  $attachment = array(); /* No attachments */
  $Email_Comments = imap_body($mailbox, $emailIndex);
} else { /* Complicated message, multiple parts */

  $endwhile = false;

  $stack = array(); /* Stack while parsing message */
  $Email_Comments = "";    /* Content of message */
  $attachment = array(); /* Attachments */

  while (!$endwhile) {
    if (!$parts[$i]) {
      if (count($stack) > 0) {
        $parts = $stack[count($stack)-1]["p"];
        $i     = $stack[count($stack)-1]["i"] + 1;
        array_pop($stack);
      } else {
        $endwhile = true;
      }
    }

    if (!$endwhile) {
      /* Create message part first (example '1.2.3') */
      $partstring = "";
      foreach ($stack as $s) {
        $partstring .= ($s["i"]+1) . ".";
      }
      $partstring .= ($i+1);
   
      if (strtoupper($parts[$i]->disposition) == "ATTACHMENT") { /* Attachment */
        $attachment[] = array("filename" => $parts[$i]->parameters[0]->value,
                              "filedata" => imap_fetchbody($mailbox, $emailIndex, $partstring));
      } elseif (strtoupper($parts[$i]->subtype) == "PLAIN") { /* Message */
        $Email_Comments .= imap_fetchbody($mailbox, $emailIndex, $partstring);
      }
    }

    if ($parts[$i]->parts) {
      $stack[] = array("p" => $parts, "i" => $i);
      $parts = $parts[$i]->parts;
      $i = 0;
    } else {
      $i++;
    }
  } /* while */
} /* complicated message */

	foreach ($attachment as $attach)	{
		WriteToFile($SaveFileDirectory . $attach['filename'], imap_base64($attach['filedata']));

		echo "Attachment found:" . $attach['filename'] . "<br>";
	}
}
die;

Hello guys

 

i used this code after eiditing some parts, but the function writetofile is undefined as the output says.

 

would you please write for me the details of this fucntion: writetofile

 

thanks

[redbrad0]

function WriteToFile($file,$contents)	{
// IF the contents is empty lets just make it one space
if ($contents=='' || empty($contents))
	$contents = " ";

// $file is the full path to the file
$fh = fopen($file, "w") or die("Could not open file!");
fwrite($fh, $contents) or die("Could not write to file");
fclose($fh);
}
