Settings for the Email Inbound Adapter - Using Email Adapters with Ensemble

Provides reference information for settings of the email inbound adapter.

The inbound email adapter has the following settings:

Group	Settings
Basic Settings	POP3 Server, POP3 Port, Credentials, Call Interval
Connection Settings	SSL Configuration
Additional Settings	Match From, Match To, Match Subject

The remaining settings are common to all business services. For information, see “Settings for All Business Services” in Configuring Ensemble Productions.

Number of seconds that the adapter will wait before checking again for new email, before checking for a shutdown signal from the Ensemble framework.

If the adapter finds input, it acquires the data and passes it to the business service. The business service processes the data, and then the adapter immediately begins waiting for new input. This cycle continues whenever the production is running and the business service is enabled and scheduled to be active.

The default Call Interval is 5 seconds. The minimum is 0.1 seconds.

ID of the Ensemble credentials that contain the username and password of a valid mailbox on the given POP3 server. For information on creating Ensemble credentials, see Configuring Ensemble Productions.

To create and manage SSL/TLS configurations, use the Management Portal. See the chapter “Using SSL/TLS with Caché” in the Caché Security Administration Guide. The first field on the Edit SSL/TLS Configuration form is Configuration Name. Use this string as the value for the SSLConfig setting.
