Hi,
Short question for you gurus out there. Sending email from message flow is possible but is it possible to receive an email sent by person X to predifined email address. I would like to receive the email with attachments automatically into node that starts the flow or to poll some email account if there are any emails. If there are emails then the flow should get that email with attachments and move on to the next node in a flow (perhaps save the attachment in the queue).
Thanks!
BR,

I see 2 possibilities:
A Java Compute Node or Custom C node (I'd suggest the Java would be a lot easier) that reads emails - you could schedule the flow or use Timer nodes to start it;
An external application that reads emails and drops the contents into a WMQ queue or a file for the flow to process.
In both cases, determining that the email was indeed sent by person X is a question for your logic. Especially if you want to be sure it's person X, not just from person X's email!
There are undoubtably other solutions, possibly better ones.

If you use Lotus Notes, code a Notes agent in LS or Java which is invoked on mail arrival. This can then use MQ with the MQLSX (officially not supported now - Grrr!) or the usual Java APIs.
Or code a program to use MAPI or POP which can work with Exchange or Notes etc and then use the MQI.
I don't think coding this part inside WMB is ideal. |
