Sending XI-Content as Mail Attachement with specific Filename

Question

Hi,
I want to send the Message-Content as a mail attachment with a specific Filename (e.g. 2005-08-31.csv). The content is a CSV File, not a XML
In the scenario an IDOC is sent to the XI mapped in a CSV-File (via Java-Mapping) and should be send as a Mail Attachment.
Is this possible and how?
Thank you for your help
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
You can influence the filename with the ModuleTransformBean. You need at least SP9 for this feature.
In the Mail Receiver Channel got to tab "Module"
As first module (before the mail module) enter:
localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean as Local Enterprise Bean with any key
For this module key you can use in the module configuration following entries:
Transform.ContentDisposition inline|attachment;filename=<filename>
Transform.ContentDescription <Filename>
Transform.ContentType <MimeType>/<SubType>;name="<filename>"
If you want to send an attachment, use:
Transform.ContentDisposition attachment;filename="MyFile.csv"
Transform.ContentDescription MyFile
Transform.ContentType text/plain;name="MyFile.csv"
If you use the Mail Package, you can set the file name that way:
<ns:Mail xmlns:ns="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
  <Subject>Hello</Subject>
  <From>[email protected]</From>
  <To>[email protected]</To>
  <Content_Type>text/plain;name="MyFile.csv"</Content_Type>
  <Content>Here comes the CSV Data</Content>
</ns:Mail>
Hope that helps,
Stefan
