PHP site that shows all emails sent to domain

Hello,

I was visiting some sites like spam.la and dodgeit.com and wondering how these sites are implemented. I often wonder how things are implemented and feel bad when I fail to understand it

I have no idea how one could link postfix and php so that all emails sent to a specific domain are shown. Can someone give me an idea on how to do this? Once I have the incoming email data, it's pretty easy to insert them in a MySQL database and display them.

Thanks!

You can use IMAP.

 

Thanks nico_swd, that's exactly what I was looking for

+rep for you

 

I'm not too familiar with IMAP, but here's something I wrote. (Yes I was bored, lol)

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL);

$imap_host     = 'xxxxx.com';
$imap_port     = 110;
$imap_userid   = 'xxxx@xxxxx.com';
$imap_password = 'xxxxxx';

$imap = @imap_open("{{$imap_host}/pop3:{$imap_port}}INBOX", $imap_userid, $imap_password) OR die(imap_last_error());
$status = imap_check($imap);

$bgcolor1 = '#CCCCCC';
$bgcolor2 = '#FFFFFF';

if (isset($_GET['do'], $_GET['msgid']) AND $_GET['do'] == 'viewmsg')
{
	$_GET['msgid'] = intval($_GET['msgid']);
	$structure = imap_fetchstructure($imap, $_GET['msgid']);
	
	if ($structure->type == 1 AND sizeof($structure->parts) == 0)
	{
		$body = imap_fetchbody($imap, $_GET['msgid'], 1);
	}
	else
	{
		$body = imap_body($imap, $_GET['msgid']);
	}
	
	?>
        <pre>
    		<?php echo $body; ?>
		</pre>
        
    <?php
}
else
{
	?>
    
    <table cellpadding="3">
    <tr style="font-weight: bold;">
        <td>#</td>
        <td>From</td>
        <td>Subject</td>
        <td>Date</td>
    </tr>
    
	<?php
    
    if (!$status->Nmsgs)
    {
        ?>
        <tr>
            <td colspan="4">No messages found</td>
        </tr>
        <?php
    }
    else
    {
		for ($i = 1; $i <= $status->Nmsgs; $i++)
		{
			if (!$msg = @imap_headerinfo($imap, $i))
			{
				continue;
			}

			if (!trim($msg->Subject))
			{
				$msg->Subject = '[No subject]';
			}
            
            ?>
            <tr style="background-color: <?php echo $i % 2 == 0 ? $bgcolor1 : $bgcolor2; ?>;">
                <td><?php echo $i; ?></td>
                <td><?php echo htmlspecialchars($msg->fromaddress); ?></td>
                <td><a href="?do=viewmsg&amp;msgid=<?php echo $i; ?>"><?php echo $msg->Subject; ?></a></td>
                <td><?php echo $msg->Date; ?></td>
            </tr>
            <?php
        }	
    }
    
    ?>
    
    </table>
<?php

}

imap_close($imap);

?>

PHP:

It's not perfect, but should get you started...

 

Thanks again, you are very helpful!

 

Nice nico, I started, but I just couldn't be bothered to finish, something shiny prolly caught my attention

 

I made a simple site with nico_swd's code, but it's rather slow. Are there any ways to speed it up, besides caching the entries in a mysql database?
