imap_getmailboxes - Read the list of mailboxes, returning detailed information on each one

SYNOPSIS

       array imap_getmailboxes (resource  $imap_stream, string	$ref, string  $pattern)

DESCRIPTION

	Gets information on the mailboxes.

PARAMETERS

	      o $
		imap_stream -An IMAP stream returned by imap_open(3).

	      o $ref
		-$ref should normally be just the server specification as described in imap_open(3)

	      o $pattern
		-Specifies  where  in  the mailbox hierarchy to start searching.There are two special characters you can pass as part of the $pat-
		tern: ' *' and ' %'. ' *' means to return all mailboxes. If you pass $pattern as ' *', you will get a list of the  entire  mailbox
		hierarchy. ' %' means to return the current level only. ' %' as the $pattern parameter will return only the top level mailboxes; '
		~/mail/%' on UW_IMAPD will return every mailbox in the ~/mail directory, but none in subfolders of that directory.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns an array of objects containing mailbox information. Each object has the attributes $name, specifying the full name of the mailbox;
       $delimiter,  which  is  the hierarchy delimiter for the part of the hierarchy this mailbox is in; and $attributes. $Attributes is a bitmask
       that can be tested against:

	      o LATT_NOINFERIORS - This mailbox contains, and may not contain any "children" (there are no  mailboxes  below  this  one).  Calling
		imap_createmailbox(3) will not work on this mailbox.

	      o LATT_NOSELECT - This is only a container, not a mailbox - you cannot open it.

	      o LATT_MARKED - This mailbox is marked. This means that it may contain new messages since the last time it was checked. Not provided
		by all IMAP servers.

	      o LATT_UNMARKED - This mailbox is not marked, does not contain new messages. If either MARKED  or  UNMARKED  is  provided,  you  can
		assume the IMAP server supports this feature for this mailbox.
