IMAP Email Feed

This component is in development - Need some help setting it up? Contact us:

 

 

It all begins here. This component will connect via the IMAP protocol (see IMAP Concepts for a brief overview), and in sequence download emails from your email account and queue the messages as it does so.

See Create a Component if you need a refresher.

Sign in to your Google Account: You need to log into your Google account. Make sure you are using the account for which you want to create an app password.

Turn on 2-Step Verification (if not already enabled):

  • Go to your Google Account.

  • Click on the "Security" tab.

  • Under "Signing in to Google," find "2-Step Verification" and click on it.

  • Follow the steps to turn on 2-Step Verification. This may involve providing your phone number for verification.

Create an App Password:

Easiest way to find it is to search for app in your Google account:

Create an App Password for IguanaX:

Then copy this app password into the password field of the IMAP Email Feed component

Use your email address. Some email providers like Google will require you use a APP password - see the previous section.

See Edit Connections. The component is downloading emails and putting them into the queue for the component.

See Push Messages to a Component Queue

The fun begins now! There is so much that you can do with access to email in a convenient environment like Iguana.

Pretty cool! I coded the whole thing from scratch in Lua together with the Email Filter in some spare time this week. It’s implemented purely in Lua. There are no limits of what you can do with IguanaX. Are you ready to take control of your data?
