In the parameter field the first thing is the actionhandler class, seperated with a comma (,) followed by the rest of the parameters. These are seperated with a semicolon (;)

login of the email of the mailbox

The password used to access the desired e-mail account

This provides information on the port corresponding to the e-mail address and the host. Frequently used ports are: 110 Pop 995 Pop including encryption 143 IMAP 993 IMAP with encryption

e.g., pop3.gmail.com or imap.gmail.com (very often this will entail either pop or pop3 or IMAP. SMTP is far less common!). An IMAP mail box will be necessary if moving all e-mails to other folders. The kind of protocol to use is dependent on the mail box being employed. If both common protocols are supported by the web service, then IMAP should be selected as preferred protocol.
