Automatic Email Processor - Changelog

May 11, 2026

Version 4.0.0 Beta - First beta release

Automatic Email Processor 4 is a completely redesigned major release. The program no longer requires an installed Outlook client and instead connects directly to your email accounts - via IMAP, POP3 or the Microsoft Graph API for Microsoft 365 and Outlook.com.

  • Direct access to email accounts - no Outlook installation required; native support for IMAP, POP3 as well as Microsoft 365 and Outlook.com (via the Microsoft Graph API)
  • Real-time detection of new emails via IMAP IDLE and Microsoft Graph delta sync
  • Redesigned user interface with a clear profile list, status and processing indicators and consistent keyboard navigation
  • Bounce detection for forwarded emails - automatic recognition of undeliverable messages (DSN/NDR) and notification of the sender
  • Service and headless mode for unattended operation as a separate program instance
  • Profile migration from earlier versions - existing profiles from Automatic Email Processor 2 and 3 are imported with automatic format detection
  • Enhanced security - AES-V2 encryption, TLS certificate pinning, password storage in the Windows Credential Manager (DPAPI) as well as protection against ZIP bombs and path manipulation
  • Comprehensive online help and step-by-step instructions, accessible directly from the program
