OPcodes's Mail Parser has a very simple API to parse emails and their MIME contents. Unlike many other parsers out there, this package does not require the mailparse PHP extension.
Has not been fully tested against RFC 5322.
- PHP 8.0+
To install the package via composer, Run:
composer require opcodesio/mail-parser
use Opcodes\MailParser\Message;
// Parse a message from a string
$message = Message::fromString('...');
// Or from a file location (accessible with file_get_contents())
$message = Message::fromFile('/path/to/email.eml');
$message->getHeaders(); // get all headers
$message->getHeader('Content-Type'); // 'multipart/mixed; boundary="----=_Part_1_1234567890"'
$message->getFrom(); // 'Arunas <arunas@example.com>
$message->getTo(); // 'John Doe <johndoe@example.com>
$message->getSubject(); // 'Subject line'
$message->getDate(); // DateTime object when the email was sent
$message->getSize(); // Email size in bytes
$message->getParts(); // Returns an array of \Opcodes\MailParser\MessagePart, which can be html parts, text parts, attachments, etc.
$message->getHtmlPart(); // Returns the \Opcodes\MailParser\MessagePart containing the HTML body
$message->getTextPart(); // Returns the \Opcodes\MailParser\MessagePart containing the Text body
$message->getAttachments(); // Returns an array of \Opcodes\MailParser\MessagePart that represent attachments
$messagePart = $message->getParts()[0];
$messagePart->getHeaders(); // array of all headers for this message part
$messagePart->getHeader('Content-Type'); // value of a particular header
$messagePart->getContentType(); // 'text/html; charset="utf-8"'
$messagePart->getContent(); // '<html><body>....'
$messagePart->getSize(); // 312
$messagePart->getFilename(); // name of the file, in case this is an attachment part
