php ini timeout,如何用安全的POP3服务器覆盖imap_timeout功能的php.ini超时

PHP IMAP库没有内置方法来改变安全pop3连接的imap_timeout函数。我期望构建这个功能，这样我就可以将超时设置为1秒，以便连接安全的pop3服务器，但是我不确定从哪里开始了解如何在PHP函数中重写php.ini命令。有任何想法吗？

imap_timeout(1, ) works fine

for pop3 connections, but apparently

not for pop3s (ssl, port 995)

connections, where the default socket

timeout still applies. This applies to

php 4.3.10, not tested on other

versions.

We looked into the source to find out

what this function actually does and

how to use it. The function overrides

the default_socket_timeout setting

from your php.ini file

You can retrieve the current timeout

length for each timeout type by

calling the function as:

imap_timeout(timeout_type);

or imap_timeout(timeout_type,-1);

You can set the timeout length for any

of the timeout types by setting the

timeout value to a number of seconds.

imap_timeout(timeout_type,);

The timeout types are as follows:

1: Open 2: Read 3: Write 4: Close

It does not appear that the close type

has been implemented.
