A
special feature of JustInbox is its ability to take action based on an exact case sensitive
match of part, or all, of the email Subject (only).
JustInbox recognizes text in the
Subject of the email that you set up in advance. There are a
number of very useful applications for this Subject recognition
feature.
Again, these are set up as a list similar to Friends and Junk
however you also specify an 'Action' to occur when the special
subject text of the email is recognized.
Note: Actions are recognized only once per
JustInbox session, this prevents multiple actions being
triggered over and over. For example, if JustInbox is running in
automatic timer mode, probably testing your inbox every 5
minutes, it is vital that an action be detected
only once. However, if JustInbox is closed down and restarted,
it will see any action emails that have not been deleted and
process these again.
Actions work by allowing you to
run any command or program.
The recommended way to run action
commands is to set up a batch file or script. This is a
powerful feature as you can have any program launched. For
example, by leaving JustInbox running on your home PC you
could, from a remote location, launch a Web cam program for
security. It could publish security video on the
Internet so you can keep an eye on your home, then send a different command to turn off the video capture.
There are numerous possibilities for using the run command
feature.
A separate program called
JustNotifyMe is provided as part of JustInbox. This command
line program sends an email to an address that you specify.
Use it to notify you that an important or special email has
arrived in JustInbox! This can be very handy for situations
where you are away from your PC, at the office or wherever and
you want to be notified when that special email arrives.
Auction bids, stock alerts etc. can be detected by JustInbox
and an email generated immediately to another address.
Up to 20 entries can be set up
for action recognition of text in the Subject: field.
