Hi,

We have a process that sends an email for every message that is processed
(3rd party app).
This app dies every now and then and the only way we have to find out about
it is that we do not receive emails.
Is there a way I can have a scrip that runs on my PC that checks every
15mins for emails in this folder? and then, if the oldest email in the
folder is older than 2h seen an alert, popup, email or something?

Thanks.
George.

You can use a task reminder. Each time the reminder fires, add 15 minutes to
the reminder time with the DateAdd function and check the folder. Use the
Sort method to sort by ReceivedTime and check the item´s age with the
DateDiff function.
