Email Snap Pack

In this article

Overview

You can use this Snap Pack to archive, delete, move, read, and send email messages using the IMAP or POP3 server and in plain text or HTML format.

Use Snaps in this Snap Pack to:

  • Email Reader: Read email messages from IMAP or POP3 server.

  • Email Sender: Send email messages to an SMTP server.

  • Email Archive: Archive email messages from one folder to another folder.

  • Email Delete: Delete email messages from IMAP and POP3 servers.

The Email Snap Pack does not support Microsoft Outlook 365 because Microsoft discontinued basic authentication of their email services. We recommend you use the Exchange Online Snap Pack for continued email service support. For assistance with existing pipelines, contact support@snaplogic.com.





Known Issues

SFTP connections might experience connectivity issues because of the removal of some deprecated algorithms. To add these connections back, refer to Configuration Settings for Snaps for details.

Resolved an issue with the Email Reader Snap to support the shared mailbox on an Office 365 server.
