This encoding will not work for cyrus imapservers and you might have problems with other mail clients. Use mb_convert_encoding($str, "UTF7-IMAP","ISO-8859-15") instead. ps: mb_convert_encoding() requires building php with --enable-mbstring option 02-nov-2005 11:01
Note that php4 (4.4.0) will encode IMAP folders in a way that no other program will be able to decode them back. $ php4 <<EOF > <?php > echo "ENCODED: " . imap_utf7_encode("Ü") . "\\n"; > ?> > EOF ENCODED: &w5w- Now try to decode the result string ("&w5w-") using e.g. javamail or python's imaplib, or if you don't like these languages - create an IMAP folder using PHP and try to display it in an IMAP client (mutt, thunderbird, outlook, whatever...) dn
Maccoy function's isn't reliable 'cause it doesn't follow the RFC 2060. It will work fine for most latin chars (which, in base64, will turn into "+A..."), but for other language it can make a big mess. If you're using an internationalizated system, try using the other presented options.
