Consume emails using a webex bot

[dmarasch]

Hi all,

I was planning to develop a webex bot that is capable of consuming emails sent to a mailer. Is it possible to have an email address assigned to a bot?
I was checking the email2teams bot but it is not meant for what I need. Thank you in advance.

Nope, mail addresses and mailboxes are not linked to bots.

But your bot's code may check an arbitrary mailbox, parse the mails found and act as you want it to do.

For instance, I'm running a bot that parses a special mailbox with notifications. If it detects something interesting, it posts its contents to a space to notify me.
