    How to trigger an email alert when files build up in a folder

    Q: I was looking through the knowledge base and found the following article on triggering an email alert when files build up in a folder:

    Trigger an email alert when files build up in a folder

    This is almost exactly what I was looking for. Is there any way in the email message to include the total number of files the rule found as well as the earliest timestamp in the file?

    A: We decided to create a new blog article with a more recent version of our tool.

    • We used our ‘Pascal Script’ as Source option:
      • You can download the script from: here
      • Don’t forget to adjust the Const values like:
        • ctMaxFiles
        • ctFolder2Check
        • ctFileFilter
        • ctIncludeSubFolder

    • Enable and setup the ‘On Success’ Rule Event:
      • Enable ‘Enable Mail’
      • Setup Email
        • Always use a valid From address
      • Setup SMTP Server settings

    What are the steps to configure a mail alert

    Q: What is the steps to configure a mail alert ?

    A: First select the Rule you want to configure.

    Next, Select ‘Moving Rule’ Menu> ‘Rule Events’ item:

    Important, each enabled event will use its own setup. So you’ll have to do the setup for each enabled event. In this example we enabled and added a setup for the ‘On Error’ event only.

    Maybe it is a good idea to enable ‘Success event memory’ and ‘Error event Memory’. This way the events will only be triggered when the status changes between Success  <> Error and not with every Success and Error event.
