IMAP Forward Email

[FiRe]

I am trying to automatically forward emails to another account using IMAP. Is there any easy way of doing this?
I am currently looping through each email, retrieving who its from/subject/message, then sending those details on to the new address using mail(). This isn't great as you wont receive things like attachments and other headers. Is there like a forward function or anyway of retrieving the raw email contents and sending on to another address?

If you call sendmail directly, and pipe the entire email to it, it should take all the headers and attachments.
/usr/lib/sendmail [e-mail] [e-mail]

what like an exec() command?

I found this function:

function mailfrom($fromaddress, $toaddress, $subject, $body, $headers) {
$fp = popen('/usr/sbin/sendmail -f'.$fromaddress.' '.$toaddress,"w");
if(!$fp) return false;
fputs($fp, "To: $toaddress\n");
fputs($fp, "Subject: $subject\n");
fputs($fp, $headers."\n\n");
fputs($fp, $body);
fputs($fp, "\n");
pclose($fp);
return true;
}

But I would still have to pass to the function the subject and stuff?!

Yep, but all you have to pass to sendmail is the from and to (on the command line) and then the entire message text including headers.

$fp = popen("/usr/sbin/sendmail -f$fromaddress $toaddress", "w");
if ($fp) {
fputs($fp, $message);
fputs($fp, "\n.\n");
pclose($fp);
}
else {
print "an error occurred\n";
}

how do you get the entire message + headers in IMAP, is there a function?
