Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.imap-open#refsect1-function.imap-open-description
---

Right now it says:

resource imap_open ( string $mailbox , string $username , string $password [, int $options = NIL [, int $n_retries = 0 [, array $params = NULL ]]] )

It should say:

resource imap_open ( string $mailbox , string $username , string $password [, int $options = 0 [, int $n_retries = 0 [, array $params = NULL ]]] )

Expected result:
----------------
It should say "0" instead of "NIL" for the default value of $options, unless there's a new data type I'm not aware of.

Log: c-client might think "#define NIL 0" is cool, but PHP doesn't.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
