Informations about the package email
Email package
This email package contains only the scanner class and a test website yet.
Scanner class
The scanner class extracts the content and headers of an e-mail that is read in as a string. The result is available as an array. The e-mail formats of the Internet Text Message Standard (e.g. Thimderbird) or OLE (e.g. Outlook) are currently supported.
First steps using the Scanner class in your project

The source for an email can be a file upload or an IMAP mailbox folder. In the following example, an IMAP mailbox folder is opened and "today's" emails are looped through. The emails will be represented as character strings. You will need to provide the correct {MAILBOX}, {USER} and {PASSWORD} for the email folder.
Test website
A test website is part of the package. An e-mail can be uploaded as a file to a temporary directory via the test website and then processed by the scanner class.
To use classes of the package or the test website, you must install the package on your computer (in the web directory of your localhost). After installation, you can open the test website via your browser. The easiest way to install the package is to use Composer. First make sure that Composer is already installed and then use the command prompt to execute the installation command:
