I am running a tweaked webmail application. However, for some reason the openssl extension isn’t loading. I have enabled it in the php.ini, but when I run my application and check for loaded extensions using get_loaded_extensions, the openssl is not in the array of loaded extensions. What is wrong here? The php_openssl.dll is physically there – I am running a wampserver and it looks ok. But on the execution end it is not working.

Depending on how php_openssl.dll was built/linked it depends on libeay32.dll and/or ssleay32.dll. Windows must be able to (also) load those two .dlls into the process running php in order to make the php_openssl.dll available/functional.
Since windows searches for .dlls (amongst other places) in the directory of the executable try placing libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll in the apache/bin directory (where the httpd.exe resides) and restart the webserver.
