I am just starting to learn mule so please forgive me if this is a very basic question.
I have successfully configured mule to monitor my mail box so whenever a mail comes in I write the mail to text file (just for testing).
Now I need to parse this mail and get the message / From / To from the mail.
<flow name="testFlow" doc:name="testFlow">
<imap:inbound-endpoint host="ip"
port="143" user="username" password="pwd" doc:name="IMAP"
responseTimeout="10000" transformer-refs="Message_Properties">
</imap:inbound-endpoint>
<file:outbound-endpoint path="C:\"
outputPattern="#[function:datestamp].dat" doc:name="File">
</file:outbound-endpoint>
</flow>
I thought I would be able to get the header information using the below expression (using expression transformer)
#[inboundProperties['email-header-name']]
but this doesn't seem to work. I also tried the below expressions but didn't work,
#[map-payload:HOST]
#[map-payload:MESSAGE]
#[map-payload:TIMESTAMP]
Can someone help? Also does anyone know if there is a document with the list of available expressions?
EDIT:
I included the logger to view the properties and it displayed all the properties but I couldnt find the body.. Also, I tried getting the fromAddress using
#[map-payload:fromAddress] and #[inboundProperties['fromAddress']]
but didn't work, can someone let me know where I am wrong?
The properties are something like below,
inbound.fromAddress=Service <service@xx.com>
inbound.subject=Test Final inbound.toAddresses=Service
Edit 2:
This is what I have tried but doesnt work :(
I am trying to retrieve the email subject and write to file or just show it using logger based on email subject but I am getting the below error.
ERROR 2013-02-07 19:22:45,275 [[test].connector.file.mule.default.dispatcher.01] org.mule.exception.DefaultMessagingExceptionStrategy:

Can you let me know where I am making mistake?
