This class aims to be a simple way to read a POP3 mailbox.
Most of this code was pulled from the set of functions found in this php.net comment: http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.imap.php#96414
In the require key of composer.json file add the following
"nsbucky/pop3": "dev-master"
$pop3 = new \Pop3\Connection($host, $user, $password);
try {
$messages = $pop3->listMessages();
// each message will be instance of Pop3\Message
foreach( $messages as $messageNumber => $message ) {
echo "<pre>" . print_r( get_object_vars($message), true) . "</pre>";
/*
prints an array that looks something like this:
Array

[subject] => sample message

// fetch body of message
$body = $message->fetchBody();
}
} catch( \RuntimeException $e) {
echo $e->getMessage(); // will say it can't connect to $mailbox
