Can Uipath Bot read the Mail from the Distribution list(DL)

Hi,

Is it possible to read the mail inbox of the DL from UiPath? Or do we need to add one dedicated mail id to the DL and read the mail box from there?

Thank you

In UiPath, you can read the mail inbox of a Distribution List (DL), but it’s important to understand how DLs work in email systems and what limitations or considerations there might be.

  1. Using a Dedicated Mailbox: The most straightforward approach is to have a dedicated mailbox associated with the DL. This mailbox can be used to receive and store emails sent to the DL. You can then use UiPath to access and read emails from this mailbox, just like you would with any other mailbox.
  2. Individual Mailboxes: If you don’t want to create a dedicated mailbox for the DL, you can also consider having individual members of the DL forward emails to their own mailboxes. You can then read emails from their individual mailboxes using UiPath.
  3. Accessing DL Mailboxes: Some email systems allow you to access the mailbox of a DL directly. This is typically possible with Exchange-based systems and may require specific permissions and configurations. You would need to ensure that your UiPath robot has the necessary permissions to access the DL mailbox.
