imapconfig.json

• The config matches the one required for the imap package.
• It is suggested to use the default secure port 993 and using tls. An arbitrary example config would be:

[
  {
    "user": "[email protected]",
    "password": "thisIsThePasswordOfMyEmail",
    "host": "imap.example.com",
    "port": 993,
    "tls": true
  }
]

• If you want to check the mails for multiple accounts, simply add another object to the array.
