These confusingly all use the same generic name "php-imap", but they are all 
different things.

https://github.com/barbushin/php-imap appears to be a higher-level wrapper 
around the PHP IMAP extension, not a replacement:

https://github.com/Webklex/php-imap appears to be a partial replacement:

and the API is probably yet another one, otherwise it would not make sense 
to use this library together with the PHP IMAP extension.
