Reading email from Lotus Notes

Hi,

Is it possible using JAL script to read and process email from a Lotus Notes mail database?

The version of Lotus Notes we are running is 6.5 client, 7.0 mail server.

I basically want to get messages from a specific sender and parse the message body.

Thanks in advance,
Sotiris

Hi,

Yes, it is possible. There is no JAL method to read email, but there is a way to make a job to watch for specific email (use "when certain email received" schedule type). You can set email filter using subject and message text patterns so that the job is triggered by certain emails only. In the JAL script associated with the job you can use @V"message" macro-variable to obtain text of the email message that triggered this job and then parse it as required.
