Post Possible bug in email watch jobs ? Reply with quote

I have 2 email watch jobs that are set to kick in every minute.
They are also set to kick in depending on the Subject data.
Problem is both of them don't wotrk in tandem. If I disable one then it works, same if I disable that one and enable the otherr then the other works.
But if I alter one job to rune every 2 minutes and the other to run every minute then they both work fine.
Is this a bug ?

Cheers

That's right, you cannot use 2 different email watchers with the same Inbox. The email watcher reads all new messages (that have "new" status) and marks then as "already read", so when the second watchers kicks in no new emails is available.

There are 3 solutions for this issue:
1. Use different inboxes (e.g. different accounts) for different email types. You can have virtually as many accounts setup on the same computer as you want.
2. Or create a generic email watcher and a script type job, put "*" wildcard for the email subject filter and "*" for the message. In the job script use @V"subject" and @V"message" macro variables to obtain the message subject and text and then use *if* or * case* logic to perform different actions for different messages.
3. Use 24x7 Event Server to watch for POP3 email rather then 24x7 Scheduler to watch for MAPI. In 24x7 Event Server you can have any number of email watchers for the same or different accounts.
