The IMAP application would do that. If you set up an IMAP server to receive messages, and use the Splunk for IMAP scripted input/app to fetch the messages from there.</P> <P>In principle, a similar application could be made for a POP mail server. It's probably best to use something like this that leverages an existing mail infrastructure and server so as to avoid having to maintain your own.</P> Tue, 31 Aug 2010 07:20:03 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Email-data-content-to-Splunk-index/m-p/40330#M7486 gkanapathy 2010-08-31T07:20:03Z Re: Email data/content to Splunk index? https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Email-data-content-to-Splunk-index/m-p/40331#M7487 <P>Hello, I'm facing exactly the same situation.<BR /> Any idea how to use IMAP, the needed steps ?</P> Mon, 19 Aug 2013 14:10:55 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Email-data-content-to-Splunk-index/m-p/40331#M7487 royimad 2013-08-19T14:10:55Z
