[imp] Authentication Fun

[Derek Martin]

Hi everyone.  Here is an odd one - I want to perform the HORDE/IMP login
automatically from another system by using CURL.  Can anyone point me in
the direction of some CURL code that could help me with this?  This is
what I have so far but it (obviously) doesn't work as it is way
incomplete.  REASON:  Working on a single sign on system for a portal
that I am building for my university and want to log people in to
multiple systems via one login box.
My current php file:
 
<?php
  $query =
"actionID=96&mailbox=INBOX&imapuser=MYUSERNAME&pass=MYPASSWORD&namespace
=&server=EMAILSERVER&port=143&protocol=imap&folders=&new_lang=en";
 
  $ch = curl_init();
 
  if (!curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "locationtoimp/imp/redirect.php"))
{
    echo "Failed to set url.";
  }
 
  if (!curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1)) {
    echo "Failed to set verbose.";
  }
  if (!curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, 0)) {
    echo "Failed to set verbose.";
  }
/*
  if (!curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible;
MSIE 5.01;
Windows NT 5.0)")) {
    echo "Failed to set user agent.";
}
  if (!curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1)) {
    echo "Failed to set follow location";
  }
  if (!curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, "locationofreferrer")) {
    echo "Failed to set referer.";
  }
  if (!curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1)) {
    echo "Failed to set post option.";
  }
  if (!curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "$query")) {
    echo "Failed to set post fields.";
  }
  $result = curl_exec($ch);
  if (!$result) {
    echo "Curl Error: ".curl_errno($ch)."<br>";
    echo "Description: ".curl_error($ch);
    curl_close($ch);
    exit;
  } else {
    echo "<pre>";
    echo "Hmph: ";
    echo curl_errno($ch)." -";
    echo curl_error($ch) . "<br>";
    print_r($result);
    echo "</pre>";
 
    // while (list($key, $val) = each($Result)) echo $key . ". " . $val
. "<br>"
;
 
    curl_close($ch);
  }
 
?>
