To get your own backup mail working, you need a server with PHP7 and extension Mailparse installed. Yo need to install composer to fetch dependencies.
Remember PHP compability
- Tested to PHP 7.4.33
sudo apt install php-cli php-mailparse
sudo apt install php-cli php-pear php-dev php-mbstring
pecl install mailparse
AAAAMMDD should be php-config --extension-dir
git clone https://github.com/php/pecl-mail-mailparse.git
cd pecl-mail-mailparse
phpize
./configure
sed -i 's/#if\s!HAVE_MBSTRING/#ifndef MBFL_MBFILTER_H/' ./mailparse.c
make
sudo mv modules/mailparse.so /usr/lib/php/AAAAMMDD/
echo "extension=mailparse.so" | sudo tee /etc/php/7.1/mods-available/mailparse.ini
sudo phpenmod mailparse
You need to download mailparse DLL from http://pecl.php.net/package/mailparse and add the line "extension=php_mailparse.dll" to php.ini accordingly.
- Clone the backupmail repository
git clone https://github.com/Iguannaweb/backupmail.git- Run composer install to fetch dependencies
