      As soon as I get a chance I’ll give it a go…

      Let me know how it goes. There are a lot of problems, but I’d like you to test it. IMAP causes a lot of problems and isn’t as straightforward as I thought it would be! :(

        Looks interesting.
        Request: Multiple email accounts?
        OR - better still since I just need the ALERT: any way I can just get a NUMBER of emails I need to read:

        joeshmoe@gmail.com - 17 unread
        suzieQ@public.com - 5 unread
        UncleSam@gov.com - 0 unread

        I’ll have a look at your module once I sort one other problem on my MM2 out.

          @amanzimdwini Thank you!

          That seems very interesting. I will take a look at that and get back to you! It is definitely possible, however, I’d like to get an audio notification (on new incoming emails) working before I proceed.

            Thx. In the meanwhile: I’d like to change the font size you use for display to small/tiny (I have about a zillion emails in 12+ different accounts)… so I have to fix my custom.css

            Judging from previous problems (look at the bottom of
            https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/254/sachin-s-mirror/21
            ) I stink at finding the properties myself - any hints would be most welcome.

              That’s a good idea. Note:

              1. Number of emails to display is customizable and the default is 5.
              2. Instead of enforcing people to play around with css, I can have a config property where you can set the font size as ‘big’, ‘medium’, ‘small’.

              Please let me know when you get this module up and running, and whether the above helps.

                Git pull was easy.
                npm install yielded

                pi@MagicMirror2:~/MagicMirror/modules $ npm install

                  I am sorry if my instructions weren’t clear, I’ll update the README. You need to run “npm install” inside the “email” folder.

                        Thx for updating the README.
                        Followed instructions (requested app-pwd since I have 2-factor authentication).
                        My config.js:

                                        {
                                                module: 'email',
                                                position: 'bottom_left',
                                                header: 'Email',
                                                config:{
                                                user: 'XXX@gmail.com',
                                                password: '****************',
                                                host: 'imap.gmail.com',
                                                port: 993,
                                                tls: true,
                                                authTimeout: 10000,
                                                numberOfEmails: 5,
                                                fade: true
                                }
                        

                        Restarted (NOT REBOOTED) Pi.
                        Got this:
                        0_1469426287738_upload-38a60756-5f8a-4933-b4f3-af564be8f683

                        Rebooted (just to be safe) - same result.

                          @amanzimdwini you are missing a ‘}’ which closes the config block. It should look like:

                           {
                                                  module: 'email',
                                                  position: 'bottom_left',
                                                  header: 'Email',
                                                  config:{
                                                  user: 'XXX@gmail.com',
                                                  password: '****************',
                                                  host: 'imap.gmail.com',
                                                  port: 993,
                                                  tls: true,
                                                  authTimeout: 10000,
                                                  numberOfEmails: 5,
                                                  fade: true

                            Sorry - pasted only partial copy; I had the trailing }.
                            My Config.js was correct…

                            Just to be on the safe side, I tested it as if config.js had been what I posted - and that failed with a “please create a config file”. As it should have.

                            So - I think the problem is elsewhere. Sorry

                                @amanzimdwini Also, if you’re using Gmail, you need to ‘set lower security for apps’ https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps.

                                    Just did a clean install on a brand new pi in about 5 minutes flat. COOL MODULE.
                                    (still need to work on 2-auth, please. Plus I’ll want to change your config to make the display single line etc. I’ll look at the js file)

                                      @amanzimdwini I am working on it. Also, I am finishing up with another module that works in a very similar fashion, where your requests would be required as well. I’ll add them together :D

                                        Hi,

                                        Thanks for this job.
                                        It’s possible to add number of email don’t read in the header module ?

                                        Thanks

                                          @Neokamikaze Thanks for your kind words!
                                          It is definitely possible. Unfortunately, I am traveling and don’t have my mirror with me. I will add it in a week and update you.

                                          Thanks once more :D

                                            Hi,
                                            Thank you very much for this amazing module. Unfortunately, I was not able to make it work properly. Without giving any error (at least that I am aware of) it freezes on the loading screen.
                                            I managed the security and everything, it is a Gmail account.
                                            Any idea of what’s going on?
