Don't let "...string old_mbox, string new_mbox);" fool you. You have to add the server and port to the mailbox name also. So it would be something lique:
imap_renamemailbox($mailbox, "{localhost:143}$oldfolder", "{localhost:143}$newfolder")
Just thought I would point it out, it tooc me a while to figure it out.Don't forguet that you can't be connected to the mailbox that you are going to rename (or delete).
If you have the following mailboxes:
IMBOX
IMBOX.Foo
...and want to rename "IMBOX.Foo" to "IMBOX.Bar" you have to be connected to "IMBOX":<?php
$mbox = imap_open('{imap.example.com}IMBOX', 'username', 'password');
imap_renamemailbox($mbox, '{imap.example.com}IMBOX.Foo', '{imap.example.com}IMBOX.Bar');
imap_close($mbox);
?>
