  • Required arguments include the mail.store.protocol which specifies whether imap or pop3 should be used.
  • All other arguments are optional provided that a Job Resource is used which specifies the connection details to the mail server, see below. Otherwise individual settings such as the IMAP/POP3 host, IMAP/POP3 port etc. have to be specified from arguments.
  • When using a secure SSL connection consider that:
    • for use of TLS the mail.imap.starttls.enable argument has to be used with the value true, for use with SSL the mail.imap.ssl.enable argument has to be used with the value true.
    • different ports might be in use: for unencrypted connections and for TLS connections port 143 is frequently used, for SSL connections port 993 is frequently used.
    • optionally use the mail.imap.ssl.protocols argument with a value such as TLSv1.2 or TLSv1.1,TLSv1.2 to specify one or more protocol versions that limit handshake with the mail server to the protocol versions specified. Depending on the Java version in use and possible modifications of the java.security file a number of protocols could be enabled that might not match the mail server's capabilities. Typically SSL handshaking starts from the highest protocol version accepted by both parties. However, it is not guaranteed that protocol negotiation will work perfectly. In such a situation it is recommended that the protocol version is specified using this argument.
  • Select the check box provided with each argument if you want this argument to be added to the arguments of the MailInboxJob.
