[imp] RESOLVED: Horde accessing Exchange 2007 via POP3 or IMAP

[Games, Dax]

Liam,
 
Thanks VERY much for your suggestions.  I downloaded the Redhat ES 4
libc-client and php SRPM files, modified the SPECs, some of the patches
and rebuilt them without kerberos and an insanely high RPM build number
so they would not be overwritten by a future update.
 
The result: All is working now and I can even do ssl, or tls with the
novalidate-cert parameters.
 
The client is VERY happy!
 
Again, Thanks!
 
Dax

It's really easy to do if the IMAP extension is compiled as separate .so
file rather than built into the php binary itself.  Check the value of
extension_dir in your php.ini file, and see what lives in the directory
it mentions.  Ours looks something like..

extension_dir = "/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20050922"

the contents of which are..

apc.so           gettext.so     mssql.so       pdo_oci.so     suhosin.so
bz2.so           iconv.so       mysql.so       pdo_odbc.so    sysvmsg.so
calendar.so      imap.so        mysqli.so      pdo_sqlite.so  sysvsem.so
curl.so          json.so        oci8.so        pfpro.so       sysvshm.so
cyrus.so         ldap.so        odbc.so        posix.so
xmlreader.so
dba.so           lzf.so         openssl.so     pspell.so      xmlrpc.so
eaccelerator.so  mbstring.so    oracleldap.so  sasl.so
xmlwriter.so
exif.so          mcrypt.so      pdf.so         snmp.so        zlib.so
fileinfo.so      mdbtools.so    pdo.so         soap.so
ftp.so           memcache.so    pdo_dblib.so   sockets.so
gd.so            mime_magic.so  pdo_mysql.so   sqlite.so

If it's stand-alone, you can build a separate copy of the IMAP extension
linked against a different build of c-client, and swap them in and out
as necessary.  You'll probably need to restart the webserver to affect
the change.

If it's actually built into PHP, you'll need to rebuild PHP.. and the
ease of backing the change out will completely depend on how you manage
your system software.
