[KP Basu]

Hi, Is there any option to sync zimbra IMAP account mails with out user credentials. I want to sync IMAP mails after user login on mail piler like gmails ID does.

Thanks KP

Why don't you push emails with the always_bcc feature? Anyway Gmail allows you to use some sort of tokens, and when the user logs in the first time, the gui uses his password to get such a token that can be used later by the gmail-imap-import.php script.

It's possible that zimbra supports a similar method to acess emails, check out the zimbra docs, and let me know if it does.

Please say where is store user input variables Like : username and password

I want to store user-name and password after successful login Is this possible? Please help me.

The password is never stored. Frankly, I don't think it's a good idea. What if a user never logs in to the archive or he changes soon after he logs in, and you store the password? Also, I don't think this practice can be validated in any security-aware environment.

Anyway, I don't see your point: you have zimbra which is postfix under the hood. You can set always_bcc to get the emails. Zimbra stores email in clear text, so you can also make the already stored emails available for pilerimport (using nfs, sshfs, etc).

I want to know that php code where user input their credentials. And that variable. So I can temporary store that variable and run pilerimport command after successful user login.

Check out controller/login/login.php
