i am trying to enable my local development environment, and i have the Apache, PHP and MariaDB already installed in my Big Sur Mac. (all installed with brew) But the imap php extension does not work and that's because the PHP is not loading the extension. The Apache error_log throws:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'imap'
(tried: /usr/local/lib/php/pecl/20190902/imap (dlopen(/usr/local/lib/php/pecl/20190902/imap,
