How to trigger unread emails for a given period ?

Question

Hello All,
I kindly need your help on the following. I have a mailbox that receives huge number of emails per day , I`m processing those all unread emails every one minute using a third party tool and make them read after successfull processing , my concern is
that I want to receive any alerts if there are unread emails after 5 minutes for example. Because this will mean that the emails are not processing hence the scenario has stopped running.
Hopefully I`m clear enough.
Best Regards,

You should use time-script monitor which run every 5 minutes and return unhealthy if an unread email was found in inbox.
The script as
Set olApp=CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set olMAPI=olApp.GetNameSpace("MAPI")
Set oFolder = olMAPI.GetDefaultFolder(6)
Set allEmails = oFolder.Items
dim oAPI, oBag
Dim Status
set oAPI=CreateObject("MOM.SCriptAPI")
set oBag=oAPI.CreatePropertyBag()
Status="Healthy"
For Each email In oFolder.Items
If email.Unread = True Then
Status="UnHealthy"
End If
Next
Call oBag.AddValue("State", Status)
Call oAPI.Return(oBag)
