"Process documents from mail vs gmail"

jombree

I am trying to process e-mails from a gmail account. I can't figure out how to configure the 'process documents from mail' operator to access the mailbox, however.
Could you please help me with giving a working example or any hints?
I'll need to do the same for an exchange server mailbox afterwards.
Thank you, J.

Interesting. I was playing around with it yesterday and I guess I had
the same questions as you. ;-)  This process connects to gmail,
leeches mails and decodes the subject lines:

At least it did it for me ...
