I switched from GoDaddy to another hosting provider because of this. GoDaddy's problems are worse than just their lack of imap support in php. You cannot connect to their email servers from your shared hosting server at all. They block all network connections to their email servers from their own network. And they refuse to fix this. They claim it's "a limitation of the shared hosting environment" and push you to their VPS products. I had tried to code my own POP3 client to use this mod since their php server does not have IMAP support and then noticed that connections would simply fail. So there's no way for a GoDaddy shared hosting website to do any sort of automatic email processing, php or otherwise. PM me if you want a hosting recommendation. You're gonna have to leave GoDaddy shared hosting or at least use an email server other than GoDaddy's to use this mod.
