Hi You probably need to poll. create a while controller which has the timer and Mail Reader sampler and some BSH sampler If you've found what you are looking for the first time , set some flag in BSH that causes the while to quit, otherwise keep increasing the timer's value (or fixed intervals) and wait for a set of iterations , if max iterations/time reached set some other flag that causes the controller to quit.
