Listen on new emails on a IMAP mailbox

Listen on new emails on a given IMAP mailbox. Converts the binary XML attachment to a stringified xmlproperty on the $data object and converts it to JSON. The Setnode could be replaced with Function nodes for example to do a conversion/mapping/transformation. The JSON is ultimately sent to a HTTP Endpoint via POST. This could be a starter for EDI purposes like receiving or transmitting XML data and conversion via JSON object property mapping.

Over 3000 companies switch to n8n every single week

Connect Email Trigger (IMAP) with your company’s tech stack and create automation workflows

in other news I installed @n8n_io tonight and holy moly it’s good

it’s compatible with EVERYTHING

Last week I automated much of the back office work for a small design studio in less than 8hrs and I am still mind-blown about it.

n8n is a game-changer and should be known by all SMBs and even enterprise companies.

We're using the @n8n_io cloud for our internal automation tasks since the beta started. It's awesome! Also, support is super fast and always helpful. 🤗
