A collection agent for batch workflow configurations is now available in .

The Email Agent can connect to an existing email server using either the IMAP or POP3 protocols and fetch emails from them.

This agent implements Jakarta Mail.

Workflow with Email agent

Batch model is used.

To make sure that every email gets handled according to the rules set in the configuration we treat each email as a batch. Meaning if the mail folder you read emails from contain 30 emails you will process, it will be split into 30 batches.

To manage resources better the agent splits a large amount of messages into batches internally. Instead of lazy loading each message during processing, which would mean more than one transaction to the email server per message, the agent fetches all content for the specified number of emails at a time and then processes them.
