Note
Only e-mails from the “Inbox” folder are intercepted.
After enabling the policy the incoming e-mails are intercepted and get into the “Mail” event type without the username.

Policy operating can be checked on the server by running the command
staffcop grab --server=imap.gmail.com --login=test@gmail.com --password=XXXXX --today
Configure Exchange server for the interception to work¶
Create an mail account which will be the source of information.

Set the maximum message size to be 0 kb.
