# Elements of the flow - IMAP Email Trigger

The `IMAP Email Trigger` can be used to start a flow when a new email is received in the specified mailbox.

The mailbox itself is configured under Admin → Connections. You can find the documentation on IMAP connections [here](https://docs.groupalarm.com/en/article/connections-imap-1vrl180/).

In the trigger, you then simply need to select the relevant connection.
