Specified folder does not exist get outlook mail message

Help Studio

Hello,

I have created a workflow to get emails from outlook, and works fine in my machine with my account
but moving clients machine and changing the account and folder properties gives me the error “specified folder does not exist”

Even the emails are not reading from inbox folder

I have tried removing account as mentioned in posts and checked still issue persist

can anyone help me with this?

@Thulini_Dissanayake If you have created specific folder for mails in your outlook account and you are using it for this then the same name of folder should be create on clients account.

@Thulini_Dissanayake z Yes its totally right. It should work …

17

@Thulini_Dissanayake Try to put “Inbox\cvs” as “MailFolder” - but using Expression Editor . Seems that there is some bug that disables the field right next to “MailFolder”.

I hope this will help you

@Vrushali_Gave No luck in that i have already tried that :frowning:

@Thulini_Dissanayake Check the account setting of outlook at client machine. If several e-mail accounts in outlook using POP3 then in the “Account” field just write: “Outlook”.
hope it helps.
