Reading emails with MAPI in PHP?

As you know Microsoft Exchange Server uses a proprietary protocol called MAPI. Is that possible to read emails from the Ms exchange with that protocol in PHP. I found an extension PHP-MAPI. But i guess it is only for Zarafa server or something like that. Correct me if i am wrong.

Extended MAPI can only be used from C++ or Delphi.
You can use Redemption (I am its author): it is an Extended MAPI wrapper usable from any language that supports IDispatch based COM objects). Keep in mind however that the MAPI system must be installed (which means Outlook must be installed).
In case of Redemption, you probably want RDOSession.LogonHostedExchangeMailbox (it creates a one-off profile that points to the specified mailbox using online mode).
