IMAP event source

An IMAP event source can monitor a folder of an IMAP mail server and generate events, e.g. when an email is received.

The IMAP event source can be found in processes in the "Elements" area in the "Event sources" category. From there, it can be dragged & dropped to the desired location on the workspace and then configured. General information about creating process items can be found here.

If you have created the IMAP event source on the workspace, open the Properties dialog by double-clicking on the element.
