Name | Name of the message source | Type | Message source type | Preset | Presets which can be used to simplify the remaining configuration i.e. Host/Post | Host | Message Server's hostname or IP Address | Port | Message Server's port | Timeout | Connection to be timed out based on the configured time (seconds). Leaving this configuration blank would result the timeout to be 30 second | Username | Username to access the account | Password | Password to access the account | SSL | Does the connection use SSL? | SSL Certificate Validation | SSL Certification Validation | Check Server Identity | RFC 2595 specifies additional checks that must be performed on the server's certificate to ensure that the server you connected to is the server you intended to connect to.

Read All and Delete - All the emails in the mailbox will be read and deleted after they are successfully processed. NOTE: For example: UserA has been using Read Unread and Mark As Read read strategy for past 5+ months and currently has over 2000 emails residing in the inbox. However, the user has now decided to switch the read strategy over to Read All and Delete and the consequence of this turned out that all the mails residing in the inbox folder were processed by JEMHC which resulted to exceeding the allowance. For example: read strategy (in JEMHC) has been set to Read Unread and Mark As Read and the Mail Server (POP) has been configured to Delete Gmail's copy once it has been processed. The end result of this would be the processed mail will be deleted from the inbox as per configuration. |
