read email from outlook php from local pc
email, outlook, php
Solution
Not sure why you would want to try to get this from a LOCAL mail file on a 'single' pc, I would rather attack this from a `POP3/IMAP` route, it would THEN be a PHP based mail client, or whatever you need it for (fetching mail, filtering, checking, triggering an event, etc;).
But what you describe is just not feasible for anything, I can't see a client paying to have simple client mail accessed via PHP.
Here are some PHP / Email reading references:
