This is documentation problem. When you use pop3
it doesn't have all the capabilities as imap has.
Search & sorting are one of the missing ones, AFAIK.

On this page: 
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imap-open.php

Is a faulty line which confuses (at least me :)

"This function can also be used to open streams to POP3 and NNTP servers, but some functions and features are not available on IMAP servers. "

It should be saying "..features are only available on IMAP.."

Fixed that sentence, but the rest of the functions might need notes about the availability on POP/NNTP servers.

But this function (imap_sort) works perfectly under win2K. why?? if anyone knows how to do it work with XP, tell me at albertsori@terra.es
I?m sorry, I?m Spanish and my English is too bad, ?I think!

So the bug is closed, yes?  While there may be other functions out there that need documentation added, leaving this open isn't going to help.
