I want to write an application that's almost like a webmail, but not
quite. It must receive emails from several mailing lists, store them in
a database, allow making annotations, provide some kind of accounts with
passwords, etc. It's quite specialized, it cannot be used as a webmail
proper, nor a webmail can be used instead (and that's why i'm writing
it).

But i do not want to reinvent the wheel. Are there any PHP libraries or
something to process email? E.g., for things like "here's the message,
separate the headers from the body and do something different with each
other item" or "find a discussion thread in these emails if i give you
the headers of each message". Things like that.

BTW, i will use PHP-4.3
