Hey again,
I'm working on setting up a POP3 data source and I've been running into issues getting data out of the emails. To be honest, I'm not sure if the issue is with data source not being configured properly causing it to fail to connect with the account (I've tried both gmail and outlook accounts). Or if it is an issue with the way I've set up the datapoint causing it to not properly read the data in the emails.
I wanted to start simple with something I knew worked so I was using the configuration and data in the thread linked below. But no luck.
https://forum.mango-os.com/topic/3950/extracting-data-from-pop3-email?_=1608212175632
The feedback from the system is:
Datapoint: No values
Runtime status: Shows the polls are being aborted with no return (which probably explains the lack of values for the data point)
Current Alarms: displays a message saying: 'emailtest2': EOF on socket
My data source and data point is set up like this:

The email in my inbox is set up as follows:
My goal here is to return the value in the email and set them as values for the datapoint. Any help here would be much appreciated.
Thanks
