Summary

Search for emails in a specified IMAP mailbox folder using configurable search criteria and options, returning matching messages with summary metadata and optional full content.

Inputs

  • Mailbox / Folder (required) — IMAP folder path to search, e.g., INBOX or Sent.
  • Search Filters — Collection of IMAP search criteria fields (e.g. From, Subject, Body, Date ranges, Flags, size filters). All criteria are AND-combined; leaving empty matches all messages.
  • Options — Additional search options including result limit, whether to include full email body or headers in output, and sorting order (newest first).

Output shape

a list of items, each representing a message matching the search criteria

Each returned item contains parsed envelope data and metadata (UID, subject, from, to, cc, date, flags, size). If 'Include Body' is enabled, full plain-text/HTML body is included, parsed with optional full headers. Results are sorted by newest or oldest first per the 'Newest First' option. The number of results is capped by 'Limit'. If no matches, the output list is empty.
