Generic email counts like implemented in the Gmail integration for IMAP email accounts. This is a common mailbox connection type that should be supported by most email addresses, including Exchange.

    This would be great because by work account is exchange and so the data from gmail is only personal - this would round my life even better

    Or else use sanebox data that already integrates with a lot of data in email

    Sanebox looks nifty! But no API so no luck there.

    My university account has a lot of interesting productivity data. It is IMAP too ;)

    Yes yes yes! Exchange 2016 and Office 365 support for emails and calendars would be a huge game changer. Cannot upvote enough.

    Where are we at with this?

    I use Outlook heavily–for personal, business, and work. My metrics in gmail really only show me the number of promo/ad emails I keep trying to unsubscribe to. I wish I had a better sense of how many emails and slack messages I send/receive in a day!

    If there were iMap integration, I could actually use exist to track my work e-mail. Any hope for this?

    It would be very helpful and meaningful data to track my number of unread mails at a specific time of the day (to control Inbox Zero). To get only this number by connecting to an IMAP Account should be possible to do, or what do you think?

    The main issue is that we don’t want to have to store credentials like usernames and passwords directly, which is also why we avoid unofficial APIs for other services too. I’m not sure there’s a good solution here, but also as you can see there’s not a whole lot of demand so far.

    Thanks for the fast reply, I get the problem with that :/ Would be nice to have something to run on one’s own Server and use the Exist API to update a custom attribute, if anybody knows how to build this I would be interested ;)
