Hi Mike,

This will be possible with the IMAP Sensor. You can define the name of the target mailbox in the settings of the sensor.

Best regards, Felix

Hi flame,

Subfolders can be scanned by entering it like this in the sensor: Inbox/subfolder However, keep in mind what's stated in the manual:

"This sensor type might not work properly when monitoring subfolders of mailboxes. If it has to check subsequent emails with identical subjects, later on incoming emails might not be recognized."

Kind regards,

Erhard

Is it possible to have an alert set to send email if a mail hasn't arrived in the mail box by a specific time ? Is it possible to graph the time the mail is received on a daily basis ?

Hello stheologo,

Time as a factor/variable won't work here. Maybe configuring the sensor to scan only at a specific time is an option for you to accomplish this.

Kind regards,

Erhard
