I am trying to fetch email using imap function which return very old email. Following script i am trying

$imap = @imap_open("{mail.******.com:143/novalidate-cert}", $sEmail, $sPwd);
    $message_count = @imap_num_msg($imap);
    for ($m = 1; $m <= $message_count; ++$m){
     $header = @imap_rfc822_parse_headers(imap_fetchheader($imap, $m));
     $email[$m]['from'] = $header->from[0]->mailbox.'@'.$header->from[0]->host;
    }

Currently above function return email in ascending order, so that's why very old emails (2015's Email) are coming first. So is there any way to get recent email first.

    Reverse the loop, start with $message_count and count down to 1. Commented Mar 27, 2018 at 12:06

    you count up, here: for ($m = 1; $m <= $message_count; ++$m) - reverse this. Commented Mar 27, 2018 at 12:08

    What is the behavior of your code in the block I have pointed out? What happens to $m in each iteration? Commented Mar 27, 2018 at 12:10

    In this part of the code: for ($m = 1; $m <= $message_count; ++$m), you start by setting $m to 1; then, if it's below $message_count, you increment it (++$m). Commented Mar 27, 2018 at 12:14
