Was hoping someone out there might have a script already built that does just this. I'd like to have my craigslist script automatically login to each gmail account and publish each ad..
I attempted libgmailer.php , but for some reason it will log in but the snapshot's array returns empty.

Ok to clarify..

I DON'T want a PHP script that logs in to Google AND publishes Craigslist posts..

I want a script that logs in to Gmail..
from there I can make my own code to parse out the emails I need..

I think this might be a lost cause, but I thought I should try just one more time.

I would like to know how far you get, from my understanding google has several protection mechanisms in place including AJAX and javascript that needs to be parsed.

Hmm didn't know they were trying to prevent this kind of thing.
I hafta go to work for a couple of hours, but when I get back I'm going to try and tackle this problem and see how far I can get..
I was using older classes I found from the web before, and have a basic outline of what I think will work.
*fingers crossed*

Admittedly, I was very lazy yesterday, and didn't really do anything to devise my own solution. Nothing has changed today. lol

I am looking forward to xxMP3xx's code paste.

Still looking for this?

Enable IMAP on your Gmail account(s) and you can use this: http://petewarden.typepad.com/searchbrowser/2008/03/how-to-use-imap.html

Modify this code if you want to login to Gmail using cURL: http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/php/examples/ebay_login.html

All you'll need to edit is the URLs and the form fields. Make sure you set a user agent. If a CAPTCHA shows up, your script will break. Hence, IMAP is the better solution here
