The IMAP emal trigger node does not execute the workflow or any subsequent node. The node only marks the mail as read, although this is not recorded in the execution history. I have the workflow activated.

n8n version: 1.61.0
*Database: default
n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
Running n8n via: Docker
Operating system: Linux Ubuntu
n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting: own

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

We have the same problem! The email trigger works if we choose ‘Test Workflow’ perfectly (sets the email to read and process the other actions followed).

However in the ‘activated’ mode the email is only set to ‘read’ and the following nodes are not executed, nor anything is recorded in the execution history.
n8n Version: 1.71.2 (self-hosted)
Update:
We created the workflow again and it works now… The problem laid at the second node (a http request) which was executed correctly in the test mode (‘Test Workflow’) but couldn’t be executed in the ‘activated mode’.

It works! Thanks!
