IMAP email node - multiple triggers for same email

Questions
1

Hi,

Please could someone tell me the correct setup for the Imap email node? I have the node working but during testing, the node is triggering multiple times when a single email was received in the watched email folder.

I have actions set to ‘nothing’ so I guess I may need to set to ‘mark as read’ to prevent further triggers.

I am using office 365, and have an app-specific password.

Thank you,

Paul

The short answer is yes, you need to set it as mark as read if using this trigger by itself. One thing you can do is use a node after the trigger to deduplicate (Remove Duplicates), but it still is going to run the workflow forever, however often your pooling timing is set to, on every email.

Depending on your provider, you can also add or remove tags to get it to stop.
