My idea is:
Starting with PHP 8.4, the ext-imap extension was removed from PHP Core because it had not received updates for many years. Since there is no guarantee that this extension will work on newest versions, PHP developers recommend using other alternatives, such as `Webklex/php-imap`.
I think these groups of people would benefit from this idea:
Everyone who use the email monitoring via IMAP.
Why I think they would benefit from this idea:
Because on new PHP versions email monitoring may become unavailable using the ext-imap extension.
Any code or resources to support this idea:
Are you willing to work on this idea?:
Most likely no, but I’ll try to understand how difficult the implementation of Webklex/php-imap is.
What skills and resources do you need to explore this further?
