The following code will read all emails & print the Subject, Body & Date.

<?php
  $imap=imap_open("Mailbox","Email Address","Password");
  if($imap){$fixMessages=1+imap_num_msg($imap);  //Check no.of.msgs
/*
By adding 1 to "imap_num_msg($imap)" & starting at $count=1
   the "Start" & "End" non-messages are ignored
*/
    for ($count=1; $count<$fixMessages; $count++){
      $objectOverview=imap_fetch_overview($imap,$count,0);
print '<br>$objectOverview: '; print_r($objectOverview);
print '<br>objectSubject ='.($objectOverview[0]->subject));
print '<br>objectDate ='.($objectOverview[0]->date);
      $bodyMessage=imap_fetchbody($imap,$count,1);
print '<br>bodyMessage ='.$bodyMessage.'<br><br>';
    }  //for ($count=1; $count<$fixMessages; $count++)
  }  //if($imap)
  imap_close($imap);
?>

This outputs the following:

$objectOverview: Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [subject] => Hello
[from] => Email Address [to] => Email Address [date] => Sun, 16 Jul 2017 20:23:18 +0100
[message_id] =>  [size] => 741 [uid] => 2 [msgno] => 2 [recent] => 0 [flagged] => 0 
[answered] => 0 [deleted] => 0 [seen] => 1 [draft] => 0 [udate] => 1500232998 ) )
objectSubject =Hello
objectDate =Sun, 16 Jul 2017 20:23:18 +0100
bodyMessage =Test

Having struggled with various suggestions I have used trial & error to come up with this solution. Hope it helps.

Since it s an array before you cast it  casting it makes no sense   You may want a recursive cast  which would look something like this   function arrayCastRecursive  array        if  is array  array             foreach   array as  key   gt   value                if  is array  value                      array  key    arrayCastRecursive  value                             if   value instanceof stdClass                     array  key    arrayCastRecursive  array  value                                     if   array instanceof stdClass            return arrayCastRecursive  array  array             return  array      Usage    obj   new stdClass   obj- gt aaa    asdf    obj- gt bbb    adsf43    arr   array  asdf   array  obj  3     var dump  arr    arr   arrayCastRecursive  arr   var dump  arr     Result before   array     0   gt  string  asdf   length   4    1   gt       array         0   gt          object stdClass  1            public  aaa    gt  string  asdf   length   4            public  bbb    gt  string  adsf43   length   6        1   gt  int 3   Result after   array     0   gt  string  asdf   length   4    1   gt       array         0   gt          array            aaa    gt  string  asdf   length   4             bbb    gt  string  adsf43   length   6        1   gt  int 3   Note   Tested and working with complex arrays where a stdClass object can contain other stdClass objects

The lazy one-liner method  You can do this in a one liner using the JSON methods if you re willing to lose a tiny bit of performance  though some have reported it being faster than iterating through the objects recursively - most likely because PHP is slow at calling functions    But I already did this  you say  Not exactly - you used json decode on the array  but you need to encode it with json encode first   Requirements  The json encode and json decode methods  These are automatically bundled in PHP 5 2 0 and up  If you use any older version there s also a PECL library  that said  in that case you should really update your PHP installation  Support for 5 1 stopped in 2006      Converting an array stdClass -  stdClass   stdClass   json decode json encode  booking        Converting an array stdClass -  array  The manual specifies the second argument of json decode as      assoc   When TRUE  returned objects will be converted into associative arrays    Hence the following line will convert your entire object into an array    array   json decode json encode  booking   true
