Bursting Email Address restricted to 30 characters

Is anybody aware of a restriction on "ToEmailAddress" having size greater than 30 characters, when bursting?
Getting a java.lang.NullPointerException when this address is > than 30 characters, but no problem when it is < 30 characters.
Any information on this would be appreciated.
Thanks
Sarah

I don't think there is a restriction or character limit for 30 characters.
However, we confirm that the length is causing the issue. Please run your file through the *[Bursting Designer|http://bipublisher.blogspot.com/2009/09/bi-publisher-bursting-designer.html]* and paste the log information in the post.
By doing this, you will give the forum team the necessary information to help you troubleshoot your issue.
Thanks,

Apostrophe in bursting email address

Hi gurus,
3 questions
1) Would you expect the bursting engine to handle apostrophes in an email ID?
I am constructing the control file with
<xapi:message id="${ASSIGNMENT_ID}" to="${EMAIL_ADDRESS}"
cc="" attachment="true" content-type="text/html"
and when I review the data it looks fine, eg Neil.O'[email protected]
but the email server gets bounced back with
"Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.
Subject: Detail Report for Employee: MALLEY, Mr NEIL TREVOR
Sent: 19/03/2009 15:34
The following recipient(s) cannot be reached:
[email protected] "
So it looks like somewhere along the line the email has been stripped, any ideas?
2) I put a reply on the answered thread, XML Bursting - Email Message is coming as attachment so not sure if it will prompt a response?
Basically, my log shows a well formatted message, in the email body it shows in a single line with no returns. Any ideas?
3) Does Mr Dexter still commute to work on a skateboard?
Many thanks for any accurate, exciting and life changing answers,
Jules

It may a function of the domain/mail server you are trying to send mail to. RFC spec allows for an apostrophe as a legal character in the local-part of the address, but that does not mean the recipient's domain will honor it.

Email address too long (33 or more characters)

One of our clients has an email address that's 33 characters and doesn't fit in the spot to input his email address on the Blackberry device. Can he still sync this email account on the Blackberry device?

No problems - the reference is to my sister in law whose email address is school based and its ridiculously long.
18 characters isn't that long certainly - my old one was much longer. It was 29 characters long.
Are you sure its not just the view scrolling rather than deleting anything ? I think you will find its just scrolling.

UTL_SMPT email address size restriction question

Oracle's documentation on the UTL_SMTP packages states that the username of an email address cannot exceed 64 characters, and the domain cannot exceed 64 characters. So, if an email address is '[email protected]', does Oracle consider the domain to be the 'domain' part or the 'domain.ext' part?

I have a bookmark in my safari bar. one click and it takes me directly to google gmail "All Mail". There i confirm (If I wish)) that my attachment has arrived and is properly laebled in "All Mail". As a member of the "All Mail" box, it should be exempt from any further action I take short of purposefully deleting it.
I recently created a filter so that it would bypass my inbox entirely. in days of old, it would not even show up in my mail.app inbox. but now it does, and I'm not sure why. clearly I changed something along the way. I just don't know what.
Would love to discover a more elegant and efficient method of using all that google space in any event.
thanks for responding

AIM -- Email Address for Screen Name -- Missing

At our office we've all set up our AIM screen names using the "Use an existing e-mail address as a Screen Name" option. A new employee started this week and this option is now missing. Is there a way to still do this? Our email addresses are over 16 characters.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I found a back door to this option. Here's the post that gave me the idea:
http://journals.aol.com/journalseditor/magicsmoke/entries/2007/08/07/leave-comme nts-and-join-private-journals-using-your-e-mail-address-as-a-screen-name/2540
So if you go to www.journals.aol.com/
Click on any blog listed in the center of the screen.
Click on add a comment at the bottom of any post.
You'll hit a registration screen. Click the link to Get a Screen Name.
On the next screen, choose the 2nd option that says "Use an existing e-mail address as a Screen Name" and click Continue
Then follow the directions.
It worked perfectly. Although why AIM took it off their main registration page, I have no idea.

What are valid and invalid email address characters

What are valid and invalid email address characters in Exchange 2010, for example can you have Conan.O'[email protected] is there a document that shows the valid and invalid sysmbols?

Hi
The format of email addresses is
local-part@domain where the local-part may be up to 64 characters long and the
domain name may have a
maximum of 253 characters - but the maximum 256 characters length of a forward or reverse path restricts the entire email address to be no more than 254 characters.[1]
The formal definitions are in RFC 5322 (sections 3.2.3
and 3.4.1) and RFC 5321 - with a more readable form given in
the informational RFC 3696[2]
and the associated errata.
Local part
The local-part of the email address may use any of these
ASCII characters
RFC 5322 Section
3.2.3:
Uppercase and lowercase English letters (a–z, A–Z) (ASCII: 65-90, 97-122)
Digits
0 to
9 (ASCII: 48-57)
Characters
!#$%&'*+-/=?^_`{|}~ (ASCII: 33, 35-39, 42, 43, 45, 47, 61, 63, 94-96, 123-126)
Character
. (dot, period, full stop) (ASCII: 46) provided that it is not the first or last character, and
provided also that it does not appear two or more times consecutively (e.g. [email protected] is not allowed.).
Special characters are allowed with restrictions. They are:
o
Space and
"(),:;<>@[\] (ASCII: 32, 34, 40, 41, 44, 58, 59, 60, 62, 64, 91-93)
The restrictions for special characters are that they must only be used when contained between quotation marks, and that 3 of them (The
space, backslash \ and
quotation mark " (ASCII: 32, 92, 34)) must also be preceded by a backslash
\ (e.g.
A quoted string may exist as a dot separated entity within the local-part, or it may exist when the outermost quotes are the outermost characters of the local-part
(e.g. abc."defghi"[email protected] or
"abcdefghixyz"@example.com are allowed. Conversely,
abc"defghi"[email protected] is not; neither is
abc\"def\"[email protected]). Quoted strings and characters however, are not commonly used.
RFC 5321 also
warns that "a host that expects to receive mail SHOULD avoid defining mailboxes where the Local-part requires (or uses) the Quoted-string form".
The local-part "postmaster" is treated specially - it is case-insensitive, and should be forwarded to the server's administrator. Technically all other local-parts
are case sensitive, therefore [email protected] and [email protected] specify different mailboxes. However most organizations treat uppercase and lowercase letters as equivalent, and also do not allow use of the technically valid characters
(space, ? and ^). Organizations are free to restrict the forms of their own email addresses as desired, e.g.,
Windows Live Hotmail,
for example, only allows creation of email addresses using alphanumerics, dot (.), underscore (_)
and hyphen (-).[3]
Systems that send mail must be capable of handling outgoing mail for all valid addresses. Contrary to the relevant standards, some defective systems treat certain
legitimate addresses as invalid and fail to handle mail to these addresses. Hotmail, for example, refuses to send mail to any address containing any of the following standards-permissible characters:
!#$%*/?^`{|}~
Domain part
The domain name part of an email address has to conform to strict guidelines: it must match the requirements for a
hostname,
consisting of letters, digits, hyphens and dots. In addition, the domain part may be an
IP address
literal, surrounded by square braces, such as jsmith@[192.168.2.1], although this is rarely seen except
in email spam.
Examples
Valid email addresses
<tt>[email protected]</tt>
<tt>[email protected]</tt>
<tt>[email protected]</tt>
<tt>much."more\ unusual"@example.com</tt>
<tt>very.unusual."@"[email protected]</tt>
<tt>very."(),:;<>[]".VERY."very@\\\ \"very"[email protected]</tt>
Invalid email addresses
<tt>Abc.example.com</tt> (an @ character must separate the local and domain parts)
<tt>[email protected]</tt> (character dot(.) is last in local part)
<tt>[email protected]</tt> (character dot(.) is double)
<tt>A@b@[email protected]</tt> (only one @ is allowed outside quotation marks)
<tt>a"b(c)d,e:f;g<h>i[j\k][email protected]</tt> (none of the special characters in this local part
is allowed outside quotation marks)
<tt>just"not"[email protected]</tt> (quoted strings must be dot separated, or the only element making
up the local-part)
<tt>this is"not\[email protected]</tt> (spaces, quotes, and backslashes may only exist when within
quoted strings and preceded by a slash)
<tt>this\ still\"not\\[email protected]</tt> (even if escaped (preceded by a backslash), spaces, quotes,
and backslashes must still be contained by quotes)

XML Publisher Bursting Program - limitation of email addresses

In the XML Publisher Bursting program we were able to add only 3 email addresses(containing 87 characters) the email was sent successfully.
When we tried to concatenate with another email address (it went up to 115 characters), the email was not sent to any of the email addresses (but the bursting program completed with normal status)
Is there any limitation in adding the email address in the tag
<xapi:message id="123" to="[email protected],[email protected],[email protected]" attachment="true" subject="${MAIL_SUBJECT}">${BURST_MAIL_BODY}</xapi:message>
we also tried changing the bursting control file as below but still we did not receive mail to any of the email addresses
<xapi:Delivery>
<xapi:filesystem output="${FILE_SYS_OUTPUT}" />
- <xapi:email server="${HOST_NAME}" port="25" from="${BURST_MAIL_ADD}" reply-to="">
<xapi:message id="123" to="[email protected],[email protected],[email protected]" attachment="true" subject="${MAIL_SUBJECT}">${BURST_MAIL_BODY}</xapi:message>
<xapi:message id="123" to="[email protected],[email protected],[email protected]" attachment="true" subject="${MAIL_SUBJECT}">${BURST_MAIL_BODY}</xapi:message>
<xapi:message id="123" to="[email protected]
subject="${MAIL_SUBJECT}">${BURST_MAIL_BODY}</xapi:message>
</xapi:email>
- 
- <xapi:Document key="${MOT_SO_NUMBER}" output-type="pdf" delivery="123">
<xapi:template type="rtf" location="${TEMP_LOC}" />
</xapi:Document>
Is there any other solution to add more number of email addresses in the bursting program?

Bursting Reports via email with seperate email address for each page

I have been reading "Oracle® Application Server Reports Services Publishing Reports to the Web" (most specifically chapter 15 Creating Advanced Distributions) trying to figure this out but still having difficulty getting my head around it.
I am trying to email invoices when applicable. Here is the "perfect world scenario".
Report is scheduled to run once a day.
Any qualifying invoices are picked up in the run.
If there is an email address associated with the record the invoice is sent via email. (email address would be included on report and variable)
If no email address is associated, the invoice is printed.
There could/would be several different invoices on a single run.
Does this mean I have to write dynamically write a distribution.xml file for each run or can I pass the email address as a variable to the distribution.xml?
(builder version 10.1.2.0.2)
bump
Edited by: sdortch on May 21, 2009 9:09 AM

Hi !
You're able to use Report-Variables (e.g. from a Group in the Data Model) in the distribution.xml-File to send email to different adresses.
Just bear in mind that you also need to set the "repeat-on" Property of the relevant layout section and use a "foreach"-Loop in the distribution.xml.
So, no, no "dynamic" building of xml-Files necessary (though we do it at times...).
See also "Publishing Reports to the web" for a complete reference on "burst distribution" and the components of the distribution.xml
I would, however, run the report twice, once for "all email-invoices" with email-distribution file, once for "all invoices w/o email-adress" with (probably) printer-distribution file, as "exception" handling inside a distribution.xml could be a bit awkward...
Cheers,
Jens Rettig

Thunderbird adds " and characters to my email addresses from my address book, and then can't send them because they are unrecogniseable, how do I stop it?

If I click a contact in the contact payne of a write window, it comes up in the To: place as <" joeblogs"@talktalk.com> for example. Even though in the address book it is [email protected] When I try to send the email, it comes back as an unrecogniseable address and is not sent. If I remove the <""> characters by hand ,it works. What am I doing wrong? Please help!

Thank you Matt, I think the problem is solved. I must have been in the habit of putting a space before the email address, one I removed them the "" were removed, The <> still surrounds the email address on the outgoing mail but that is to differentiate the address from the friends name. Thanks.

Mask email address of Sender, when using Batch Bursting option in HFR

Is there a way to mask the email address of the Sender when using Batch Bursting option in Hyperion Financial Reports?

Not quite what you asked but you can add an email group, for example [email protected] which shows up as the sender.

Special Characters within Email Addresses

I am trying to send e-mails via JavaMail that contain French characters. I have no problem setting the subject and body as ISO-8859-1 compliant.
However, there are several e-mails in the distribution list that contain special characters within the actual email (i.e. test@t�st.com). When I try to send it, I get the following error:
javax.mail.SendFailedException: Sending failed;
nested exception is:
 javax.mail.SendFailedException: Message partially delivered;
nested exception is:
 javax.mail.SendFailedException: 501 badly formatted RCPT TO user <test@9
nested exception is:
 javax.mail.SendFailedException: 501 badly formatted RCPT TO user <test@9
 at javax.mail.Transport.send0(Transport.java:219)Are there ways around this or could this be a limitation of my smtp server? If you anyone can share some info or point me towards the appropriate resources, it will be very much appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm pretty sure you can't put special characters in a domain name (i.e t�st.com). However, that begs the question of whether it is valid in the user name portion of the email address (i.e. t�[email protected]). I don't know for sure.
Maybe URL encoding or Mime encoding may do something, but this is just a guess.

Bursting and DeliveryManager - How to identify wrong email address

Hi,
I have created a BI report (based on Data Template)
Report generates the XML and then in the afterReport trigger, I am calling Bursting Program to send emails to the customers.
Everything works fine.
Problem is:
If, there is any wrong email address, then we are NOT receiving any notification and undeliverable message.
This happens for Bursting Request (program).
I have also written a sample Java Code using "DeliveryManager" XDO class, to check whether it thorws the exception in case of wrong email ID or incorrect domain.
But it also completes successfully and without any error. (no email .... obviuosly)
import oracle.apps.xdo.delivery.*;
public class EmailTest
public static void main(String args[])
try{
DeliveryManager dm = new DeliveryManager();
DeliveryRequest req = dm.createRequest(DeliveryManager.TYPE_SMTP_EMAIL);
req.addProperty(DeliveryPropertyDefinitions.SMTP_SUBJECT, "test mail");
req.addProperty(DeliveryPropertyDefinitions.SMTP_HOST, "appsrelay.xxx.com");
req.addProperty(DeliveryPropertyDefinitions.SMTP_FROM, "[email protected]");
req.addProperty(DeliveryPropertyDefinitions.SMTP_TO_RECIPIENTS, "[email protected]"); //WRONG EMAIL ADDRESS HERE
req.addProperty(DeliveryPropertyDefinitions.SMTP_CONTENT_TYPE, "application/pdf");
req.addProperty(DeliveryPropertyDefinitions.SMTP_CONTENT_FILENAME,"test.pdf");
req.setDocument("/home/appldev2/WYSEINVPRINTN2_17402678_1.PDF");
req.submit();
req.close();
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println("Exception at: "+e);
Then, I tried writing a send mail program using JAVAX EMAIL APIS.
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import javax.activation.*;
public class EmailTest2
public static void main(String args[])
String to = "[email protected]"; //WRONG EMAIL ADDRESS HERE
String cc = "[email protected]";
String bcc = "[email protected]";
String from = "[email protected]";
// SUBSTITUTE YOUR ISP'S MAIL SERVER HERE!!!
String host = "appsrelay.xxx.com";
String Subject="";
Properties props = new Properties();
// Get a session
Session session = Session.getInstance(props);
try{
Transport bus = session.getTransport("smtp");
bus.connect();
Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
Address fromAddress = new InternetAddress(from);
msg.setFrom(fromAddress);
Address[] toAddresses = InternetAddress.parse(to);
msg.setRecipients
(Message.RecipientType.TO,toAddresses);
Address[] ccAddresses = InternetAddress.parse(cc);
msg.setRecipients
(Message.RecipientType.CC,ccAddresses);
Address[] bccAddresses = InternetAddress.parse(bcc);
msg.setRecipients
(Message.RecipientType.BCC,bccAddresses);
Subject = "test emails";
msg.setSubject(Subject);
msg.setSentDate(new Date());
MimeBodyPart p1 = new MimeBodyPart();
p1.setText(" \n" + "Please find attached the SPQ approval letter \n\n" + "Regards, \n");
Multipart mp = new MimeMultipart();
mp.addBodyPart(p1);
msg.setContent(mp);
msg.saveChanges();
bus.sendMessage(msg, toAddresses);
bus.sendMessage(msg, ccAddresses);
bus.close();
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println("Exception at: "+e);
This, program throws Exception when there is any invalid character or wrong domain specified.
"class javax.mail.SendFailedException: 553 5.1.2 <[email protected]>... Invalid host name"
Please help me to get some clue about how we can track the invalid email address and also, undeliverable emails in Bursting or XDO DeliveryManager classes.
Thanks a Lot,

Hi,
Actually delivery failure notification is nothing to do with bursting or Delivery API, For me it deliver the notification if delivery address is incorrect (not exists), though the bursting engine does not through any error for invalid email format.
If you really looking for the solution, as a workaround :
I would use the file delivery
Implement the Bursting Status Listener
within Before Document Delivery, implement the customize delivery solution by using javax.mail logic to email the report.
For most of us, It is too much and better to raise a SR, but you already implemented the other part, so just combine these two to get what you want.

Multiple email addresses for single characteristics in Email Bursting

Hello Experts,
We have requirement of Bursting email to external sales representative with only their relevent data.
We have used Bex Broadcaster with email Bursting as distribution type . But the problem is we have to send out
email to multiple sales reps for a particular sales rep i.e for a particular Sales rep we have to maintain multiple
email ids of sales rep and infoObj can have only 60 chars long. So I cannot put more than one email id.
Is there any work around to overcome this difficulty.
Also I could have use individula schedule but number of schedleis very high around 200.
Thanks,

I understand you issue and I dont think It can be solved in BW as they system is not expecting the users email address to be more that 60 chars, however you could create a rule in outlook (or whatever mail application you use) to forward all emails containing this header to the other email addresses. Thats my only idea

Broadcasting via Bursting to multiple email address for a single vendor cod

Hello -
I have a requirement to broadcast out a web template based scorecard to multiple email addresses for a given vendor code. We have gotten it to work via a single email address, but I need to send it to more than one email per vendor code.
Has anyone else tried this?
Thank you!

Hi Chris,
If my understanding is right, you must be using the master data of vendor Code(Which has an attribute to store Email IDs).
You can add multiple email ID to the same master data separated by semi colon ";"
If you are using user IDs instead, I dont think it is possible to use multiple user ID in the same attribute.
in this case you need to enhance the master data with a new attribute to store the second user ID and the create a separate setting for this attribute.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
Shafi.

What I need to do?

Hi,
Reading between the line I think you are trying to Register for an @Mac.com name.
You NEED another email address to do this.
However it needs to be one that is not already associated with any Apple ID already (You can't create an Apple ID using another Apple ID)
Secondly due to a restriction at the AIm Server End (it will be a Vlaid AIM Screen Name) the password has to be 16 characters or less.
If you register at AIM they ask for another email (aimed at Password recovery and confirmation email) but it is not Hard Linked like the @mac.com one.
Obviously an @Me.com name is also a Valid AIM name but again the password needs to be 16 characters or less.
ANy other Apple ID will not be a Valid AIM scree Name unless you register it.
It may work in iChat if it is a Googlemail ID (As a GoogleTalk ID) - you have to enable Talk on your Google Account settings, at Google.
