Apex 4: How to send email when form is submitted?

Hi,
Using Apex 4.0.2 on DB 11g, I've a form with around 80 fields and 4 check boxes.
When the user clicks on submit button, besides saving the values in the database I also have to send emails. Selection of the 4 check boxes decides whom the email has to go to, i.e if 2 check boxes are checked, send 2 emails.
In the emails, some contents will be based on the data the user has filled and some from the database; also data in different emails will be different.
From what I've read, to send email I've to use APEX_MAIL API and make a conditional process depending on the check boxes selected. Also that I have configure mail server in database and that mail sever has to accept autonomous user (i.e. sending email without password)
Is this the right approach?
How can I do this?
Is there any example/tutorial that will guide me in doing this?
Thank you for your time.

The Apex email package is very simple.
v_id := apex_mail.send(
          p_to        => v_to,
          p_from      => v_from,
          p_subj      => v_subject,
          p_body      => v_body,
          p_body_html => v_html);It's up to you how you get the values of the variables.
Also that I have configure mail server in database and that mail sever has to accept autonomous userThe mail server is not in the database, but you do have to inform Apex which server to use (smtp.yourcompany.com).
Most smtp servers require user and password. In that case you have to write your own procedure. Search the pl/sql forum for email authentication and you will find many examples.
It is probably also possible to configure the smtp server in such a way that requests coming from the database do not need authentication. That is how we have it configured (but I don't know how the administrator did it, though).

Help: how to send emails from FORMS?

Are there simple steps to send emails from FORMS?
Thank you in advance.
Jimmy

I'm sure there are many ways to send emails from Forms. Personally I never had to do this, but I can imagine following ways.
a) use UTL_SMTP-Package to send the email via your database
b) use a Java-Call

How to send email when resubmission ends?

Hi experts,
In my workflow the users want to receive reminder on specific date.
So when the step arrive to the workplace, the users make resubmission and the step transferred to RESUBMISSION folder.
On Resubmission date I have to send email to some users.
The Resubmission date coming must be also the terminating event for the Task.
There actions must be performed only when Resubmission date coming
and not if user performs "End Resubmission" manually.
How can I do this?
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Nina.

Hi Nina,
You can use dead line monitoring to solve the resubmission problem. I am explaining the scenario I used it for.
I had to re execute the agent resolution after a certain date is passed and there were some more conditions to be checked before that. When you activate deadline a new output option is available called "Dead Line Passed". In this output you can use process control type step for making current work item obsolete, this will give control a new output called "Processing obsolete" in this branch you can call send email step and loop back and re submit the work item to who ever you want same person. In my case it has to be next level in approval hierarchy so I just added one level and looped back to decision step for new agent resolution.
I hope this makes sense. If you give exact scenario I may work out a prototype or simple steps.
Warm Regards,
Anuj Nagpal

How to send email using forms in cq5 to anonymoys user?

Hello,
I need to send mail from a popup form in CQ5.6 to anonymous users on any domains like gmail,yahoomail etc.
I config the admin console properties of the DAY CQ Mail service.
SMTP server details:-smtp.gmail.com
port 465
I create a form on a page ans define action as MAIL.After sending the mail it will redirect to the thank you page.
My concern is when i am submitting the mail via send button it will not work.I am not getting any response in inbox of the user.
Do anyone have idea for the same?
Thanks in advance

If your form is running on a box which can mail from the command line you can also do it from a host command. For example, we mail from our web forms solaris middle tier with
HOST('echo "First line of text'||chr(10)||
'Second Line of text " | mailx -s "Subject" Address');
Solaris automatically sends this to our exchange server identified as mailhost in the hosts file.

[SOLVED]How to send email to a local user?

I have installed Mutt, msmtp, procmail and I can send and receive emails to/from remote hosts and I'd like to send email locally also (to the recipients on the same machine as the sender).
When I try to send email to a local user from the root account -
echo "Test message" | mail -s "Test subject" localuser
then I get an error that connection to the port 25 is refused. Because the /etc/msmtprc file contains the 'localhost' as the default account's host, and on the local host I don't have a mail server listening on 25 port running.
When I try to send email from a non-root account which has in /$HOME/.msmtprc file a real email account on a remote server, then of course there is an error that the domain for the email address 'localuser' is not recognized.

If I understand correctly, postfix it's a constantly running daemon. Seems to be an overhead for delivering only from time to time sent messages.

Currently I have msmtp-mta installed, which is described as having sendmail functionality. If I install sendmail - will it be possible to send local email without running email daemons?

HT4979 why can I not send email when away from my home wifi? Am able to receive messages OK, and outgoing mailserver is correct?

Why am I unable to send email when away from my home wifi ? I am able to receive mail OK, and have double- checked the outgoing server which is correct. This problem is consistent with my Macbook Pro, iPhone, and iPad2.
Attempts to send messages results in them sitting in the Outbox and never- ending 'sending message' displayed.
I am able to send using my me.com server.
Home service provider is Cogeco.
Any help would be appreciated.

How to send emails to Multiple Users from a Single People Picker lookup field using Sharepoint designer workflow

Hi All,
I am working with SharePoint 2013 designer workflow. we are using office 365.
Our requirement to send email to multiple users, get the user groups from lookup list people and groups column.
But SP designer sending emails to the first user alone.
Please guide me to proceed.
Advance Thanks.
Regards
Jenkins NS
Thanks and Regards Jenkins

finally I got a solution
Identified a workaround to solve the issue using SharePoint designer.
Step 1
Create a lookup list Example department
Columns
Title (by default) – Single line of text
Users – Person or Group
Emails – Multiple lines of text
hidden the Emails column (go to content type and set the column as hidden)
Create a SharePoint designer Workflow
Start Workflow automatically when an item is created
Also Start Workflow automatically when an item is changed
Workflow Stage 1
Set Emails to current Item: Users
The workflow will get all users email ids and add in the Emails column delimiter as semicolon.
Step 2
Create a custom list to get the email ids and send email
Create a lookup column ex: analysis and refer department list, Allow multiple values
Then Create a SharePoint designer workflow
full details workflow steps please follow below

Sending emails via Forms or pl/sql

Does anyone know how to implement UTL_SMPT for sending emails via Forms or pl/sql ?
If not, any other suggestions for sending a newsletter-type of email to a fairly large list of people ?
Thanks,

If your are using microsoft windows you can achieve this by using MAPI SESSION & MAPI MESSAGE ActiveX Control.
These controls are not installed in windows by default, you have to install these from some cd like visual basic, visual studio etc.

I run DeviceDemo sample to send email, when click send email button after filling all fields, it took me to EverNote application, can not send email. does anyone has this kind experience? how to fix it?

Hi,
ADF Mobile cannot directly send emails as this is a security precaution of your mobile phone (imagine all applications could send mails without you confirming). Instead the send mail functionality launches the mail client you have configured and fill in the information you provided in the application. The mail function by the way is implemented through Cordova.
