We're looking to perform a series of action every time the number of (unread) mails in a folder exceeds a certain limit.

Example:

  • When the number of mails in a folder > 10000, mail the assistant to clean it up.
  • When the number of unread mails in a folder > 10, mail the admin that the robot probably stopped working
  • ...

In a perfect world this would be a serverside rule, not needing a client to be online to run.

We could use RPA to write this, but are checking if there are "lighter" alternatives, aside from clientside VBA.

It is not feasible to be realized in Outlook using rules or other built-in options. Reference: How to Get Warned If There Are Too Many Unread Emails in Your Outlook Inbox
