CONNECT TO EMAIL

Using this action allows you to handle incoming e-mails dynamically, from a process. This action starts listening to the specified incoming e-mail account.

CONNECT TO EMAIL AttributeIdentifier()

The attribute identifier specified in the action identifies the e-mail account to connect to. It is expected that this identifier points to the object containing the following mandatory attributes:

  • MailHost – email host server
  • MailUser – user name of the e-mail account on this server
  • MailPassword – password of the e-mail account on this server
  • AccountName – a unique name identifying this connection (which is then used in the DISCONNECT FROM EMAIL action).

The following attributes are optional. If not provided default values are used:

  • MailPort (Number, default value is 110) – port which the e-mail server uses
  • MailCheck (Number, default value is 300) – how frequently to check for new emails (in seconds)
  • MailSSL (Yes/No, default is No) – whether e-mail account requires SSL
  • MailTLS (Yes/No, default is No) – whether e-mail account requires TLS
CONNECT TO EMAIL EmailAccount 

This assumes that the application contains the EmailAccount object with the attributes above. At runtime the values of this object identify the e-mail account to connect to.
