Configuring the mail adapter Sender

Hi Guys, hope you are fine.
I have a doubt: is it possible to configure, how many emails the sender mail adapter takes per polling?
I have an inbox with more than 300 emails and I have a sender mail adapter configured with a 10 minutes pooling and I need to limit the number of messages or, just to have an ideia about the number of messages it takes. Does it depends of the machine or something like that?
Any kind of help is welcome... =)
Thank you
Luciana Rossan

Hi Luciana,
Please refer to the FetchLimit option, described in SAP Help for sender mail adapter, it matches your requirement perfectly:
IMail.FetchLimit
You can set this additional parameter to restrict the number of mails fetched by sender mail adapter in one polling interval.
Sometimes the mailbox configured for the sender mail adapter contains large number of unread mails, which exceeds the average expected number of mails in one polling interval. In such a case, processing of all the unread mails in the same polling interval by sender mail adapter degrades the system performance. To avoid this, set value of this parameter to the maximum number of mails to be fetched and processed in one polling interval. The remaining mails exceeding the limit would be processed in the next polling interval.
Please refer to the help itself if further details required:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/EN/48/3276dba3af58d8e10000000a421937/content.htm
Hope this helps,
Greg

Mail Adapter Send Mail with Attachment

Hi all,
I'm doing some tests on XI and implemented a little scenario, that send Mails.
So this works fine, but I want to have the content as the content of the mail (no prob) and a attachment with a little more information for the user in a plain text file.
I tried to code it with content-type multipart and all these stuff, but didn't come to a solution.
Some one solved such a scenario already and can help?
I also read some thread on SDN, but no solution. Perhaps its to simple
Thanx
regards
Olli

Oliver,
We have found the solution for you.
You should configure the mail adapter with 'use the mail adpater' and 'keep attachments'.
Create an XML file conform the XML structure provide by SAP
The mail package should look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ns:MT_Mail_Sent xmlns:xi="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
 <xi:Mail>
 <Subject>Item</Subject>
 <From>[email protected]</From>
 <To>[email protected]</To>
 <Content_Type>multipart/mixed; boundary="AaBb--984dfgeSSd3532"</Content_Type>
 <Content_Disposition>attachment</Content_Disposition>
 <Content>
AaBb984dfgeSSd3532
Content-Type: text/plain
Hello, this is sample data.
AaBb984dfgeSSd3532
Content-Type: text/plain;name="CSV_data.csv"
Order number;Item number;description<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
 <xsl:for-each select="Article_line">
 <xsl:value-of select="Ord_nmbr"/>;<xsl:value-of select="Item_nmbr"/>;<xsl:value-of select="Description<xsl:text>
</xsl:text></xsl:for-each>
AaBb984dfgeSSd3532
Content-Type: text/plain;name="TXT_data.txt"
Order number;Item number;description<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
 <xsl:for-each select="Article_line">
 <xsl:value-of select="Ord_nmbr"/>;<xsl:value-of select="Item_nmbr"/>;<xsl:value-of select="Description<xsl:text>
</xsl:text></xsl:for-each>
AaBb984dfgeSSd3532
 </Content>
 </xi:Mail>
</ns:MT_Mail_Sent>
In the above example you should have some content and 2 attachments (1 csv file and 1 txt file).
After each break (AaBb984dfgeSSd3532) specify again the 'Content-Type'.
Good luck
Regards
Ron

How to configure reciever mail adapter

Hi All,
I have gone through your weblog for configuring reciever mail adapter BY PRASAD ULAGAPPAN.
I have few doubts .
Message protocol == XIALL.
If I am providing my mail address in MAIL ATTRIBUTES-TO parameter
then what do we have to exactly specify in connection parameters.
I want to send a mail from XI to my ID. Suppose my id is [email protected] .
So if I am providing this ID in " TO " parameter then what should I specify in connection parameters
i.e url = ?
 user = ?
 password = ? (which password to specify , usually we dont require to give password to recieve mails )
Please help me with this.
Waiting for your reply.
Thanks in advance

Hi Yomesh,
The below help URL gives explanation for 'Connection Parameters for Mail Server':
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/0b/9a50465ccf84479e39a6d50c90fb3f/frameset.htm
You need to provide your mail server details. When you send a mail normally, say from outlook, you configure it to connect to some SMTP/IMAP server, using username/password.
Provide that server details in URL.
If you dont use user/password to connect to it, leave it blank.
Also fill the 'From' mail address.
For eg., if there is a internet connectivity to your XI server, and you want to use SMTP server of yahoo to send out mails, then you can give:
URL: smtp://smtp.mail.yahoo.com
userid: yomeshsharma
password: <your yahoo password>
In this case, both your From & TO details are same.
You can change 'TO' to send to a different mail address.

Cannot process a Fixed Field Length file using the File Adapter (Sender)

Hi -
I have checked throughout these posts and blogs but I still have not been able to find a solution to my issue. When using the File Adapter (Sender) I get a Conversion initialization failed with "xml.keyfieldName", no value found. Why would I require a key field when I am using fixed field lenghts? The file is comprised of 2 structures - 1 header and multiple details (see below). There are no key fields in the flat file that I would be able to use. Any suggestions?

Hi,
you can use the module from which u can convert your structure to
H011000390 Customer Americas 20080605164317 000000000000000800000008000000000016000000
D12345678 100500 100500 Supplier 1 0000000000030000002008040400
D12345678 100501 100501 Supplier 2 0000000000052000002008042100
Please note the extra H,D in the struture added by the module.
You can then use them as your key fieldValues.. The module should be deployed in Visual Admin and then can be used in the Module tab of your adapter CC
While writing the content conversion after that please dont forget about the added new characters
Please note also that i can find that the word supplier kept repeating in all the Dtachkp records
Please use that
Also if you feel that the field is of 13 characters and that would cause a problem dont worry... create a dummy field eg split tht 13 to two fields and use the common one as key field Value and identifier... as i see in ure case its like 500 Supplier , 502 Supplier . u can split the first 4 char and the remaing 9 char are key field value.
try this out

Using the RFC adapter (sender), how do I know which RFC is being sent?

Hello everyone!
Has anyone used the RFC adapter (sender) in XI to pick up RFC messages? How would I know which RFC is triggered for example when a user creates a PO (purchase order)?
Warm Regards,
Glenn

Glenn,
When u are writinfg RFC program, u will have destination right? There u know u have to give RFC Destination(SM59) while creating RFC destination we will be giving Program ID .
Similarly in XI while creating Sender RFC u have to give the program id. So with these program id these programs are linked together and triggered from R/3 to the exact Sender adapter.
Please see Michal weblog for more details

I hope it clears your doubt!!!

Configuring the SOAP Adapter

Hi Folks,
I have a sceanrio where an AXIS client needs to talk to the XI SOAP Adapter.
How do I configure the SOAP adapter?
I tried to access the help docs for configuring the SOAP adapter. I understand that the adapter depends upon the plain J2SE Adapter Engine which should be available on port 8000.
But when I try to access
http://<hostname>:8000 I get an access denied error
Please help!
Thanks in advance,
Shailesh

Hi Shailesh,
Maybe your 8000 Port is in Use. So you can chance the port to 8200 or something else.
You Change port in "GUIBrowserEngine.properties" file.
And try to patch the Plain J2SE Adapter Engine with "SP 10 for XI Connectivity SE 3.0"

Reinstalled 10.6.3 and now several days later the mail buttons 'send' 'reply' 'reply all' are frozen

reinstalled 10.6.3 and now several days later the mail buttons 'send' 'reply' 'reply all' are frozen (not greyed out, just completely unresponsive). also every other keystroke or so in the body of the email returns an alert bleep (but the charactor seems to be entered without a problem). i can recieve mail and all the "connection status" checks in Mail Connection Doctor return posative connections. so far i tried removing the com.apple.mail.plist permissions from my library and then repairing permissions with disk utility, as well as running applejack. no luck. any suggestions?

Hmmm, interesting problem & not on 10.6 at the moment, but quit Mail & in the Finder go to...
Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail
Do a Get Info & see if it's locked or what rights are there.

Sender mail adapter sending xml attachment comes with .bin

Hi all,
I have the following scenario: Sender Mail >> RFC
As I can receive multiples attachments I´m using payload swap bean and adapter module to get all attachments together in the first attachment.
In most cases is working very well, but in some cases the xml attachment is coming as a ".bin".
The same mail with this wrong format, when it´s been forwarded, comes with the right xml file so I can figure that is the mail format sent by vendor.
I tried to simulate this error myself and I could observe that when I change the message format from html to plain text in my outlook I get the same error, the attachments comes as .bin
Does anyone know how can I receive those mails in the right format?
Thanks for your help!
Vanessa

Hi Ravi, thanks for your help.
I have configured:
TRANSFORM > swap.keyName > Content-Disposition
TRANSFORM > swap.keyName > Content-Description
TRANSFORM > swap.keyName > attachment;filename="MailAttachment-1.xml"
TRANSFORM > swap.keyName > MailAttachment-1
When the mail comes as html format is working fine, but not working when comes as plain text.
Any Idea?
Regards
Vanessa
