E Mail Forms and Spam Bots

I have created a form and using a PHP script to forward the
form results to an e mail account. How protected is this from
harvesting the e mail address by spam bots? If this is not the best
way to go, any suggestions on a better method. I'm familiar with
captcha but would prefer not to have to use this.
thnx
Fred

If the email address is ONLY mentioned in the PHP script,
it's completely
secure.

Mail filters and Spam

Hi,
I am using the following version with SpamAssassin (SA):
Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 6.2-3.04 (built Jul 15 2005)
I configured SA so that it inserts a specific string into the subject line saying "SPAM detected". I want to use Mail Filter through the web mail interface such that anybody should be able to dump the messages with "SPAM detected" in the subject line into Trash. However, this does not work as I expected. And all messages with "SPAM detected" in the subject line still end up in Inbox. On the other hand, if I send an email with those specific words in the subject line from outside to my email account on that server, it goes into Trash as per Mail Filter.
So, my understanding is that Mail filters get executed before SA call-out. First of all, is that assumption correct?
Secondly, how can I archive such a configuration in which a user can specify its own filters using web mail interface and they get executed after SA check?
Thirdyly, one of my users wanted to be able to define some sort of whitelists based on actual email address or domain names. She did not want her incoming emails coming from a white listed account or domain to go through SA check. And is there any way of specifying such a white list by herself easily? Or what do you suggest?
Thanks,
Rami

Thanks, mhunter, most helpful.
The article, for those interested, is about 2/3 the way down this page:
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2097-2382411.html
and is entitled "Website that deals with dodgy emails".
The Bank Safe Online website is at
http://www.banksafeonline.org.uk
but, even though obviously UK orientated, it has some good generic advice which would be valid in other countries.
The email address to which UK victims can forward bank scam/phishing eMails (after they have been identified as spam of course is [email protected]

Muse Form and spam Recaptcha in BC

Considering this post instruction, http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-3531 .Is Muse next release going to fix this. Most forms in Muse will have this issue and it 'll be nice to know if a fix is coming in June 17.
This has been almost a week's work of removing Muse form and replacing with BC forms placing them in contentholder and re-styling and all that headaches. Peeved!

Hi Seven Six Creative,
I am afraid that this feature is not there in Muse at this stage.
For now, you could insert HTML code in Muse to create Radio Buttons(which allows the user to choose only one of a predefined set of options).
Kindly check the following W3schools link for more information on the HTML code:

Luis Angel Fernández

Sorry, the forum created links of my post automatically
I meant to say:
Hi,
Normally, the HTML code should look like this:
{a href="/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.efeservicios.com">PUT YOUR DESCRIPTION OF THE LINK HERE</a}
CHANGE the { to an < and the } to an >
If your link should point to http://www.efeservicios.com, it should be:
{a href="http://www.efeservicios.com">PUT YOUR DESCRIPTION OF THE LINK HERE</a}
again, CHANGE the { to an < and the } to an >
Hope this helps!

Generate bar codes in mail forms

Hi,
I know how to insert Bar codes in smartforms, but I need to print the bar codes in Mail Forms, is that possible?
Thanks a lot,
Nuno Moreira

Hi Gregor,
What I need to do is:
I have several mail forms treated as a standard response in ICWC. We are using the e-mail view (in ICWC) mainly to print the forms, via smartforms or in online mode without smartforms.
So, at the moment, I have two questions:
1) If I use a smartform to print the mail form, even if I create the form in plain text and create the bar code into mail form, when I print the number it is not converted in a bar code;
2) If I generate the bar code in a mail form and I try to print it in ICWC e-mail view the number is not printed as a bar code too;
Thanks a lot for your help and interest,
Best Regards,
Nuno

Salutation in mail forms.

Dear CRM gurus.
We are facing the following issue. When we want to create a mail form and when we want to create text different text elements using different salutation, we cannot use the conditions properly.
We cannot use basic conditions for distinguishing the salutation. Once we want to use salutation from the system field TITLE_LET (Salutation) when the fields is not empty even the field TITLE_MEDI (Title) is filled. Than we want to enter text element with salutation Mr. Mrs etc. when the field TITLE_LET (Salutation) is empty. But how we can tell the CRM that it should consider or not consider u201CEMPTYu201D field? And how to tell system that when the fields TITLE_LET (Salutation) and TITLE_MEDI (Title) are empty use the third possibility u2013 text elements with common salutation as u201CDear allu201D. Is it possible to use different way how to do this?
And what more, when we use field TITLE_LET (Salutation) in the text element it happens that the system enter data from field TITLE_MEDI (Title) instead.
Thank you for any hints.
Best regards,
Petr

Hi Petr,
I've created a custom function module that creates the salutation depending on the language and country. I.e. in Germany only the academic title Dr. or Prof. are part of the salutation. In Austria every academic title i.e. "Ing." must be added. This function module is called using the BAdI CRM_IM_ADD_DATA_BADI.
Best regards
Gregor

Hello Annabelle Guittard,
If you have text in the mail form and that text is not W3C compliant then in this case you cannot upload the images
because of syntax error in your html coding.
So my suggestion is - if you have text in your mailform then make the html coding of that text W3C compliant and then
try to upload the image.
Hope this helps.

I know how to send a personalized mail form, but not sure how do we attach the generate the PDF and attach it to mail form through actions.
Regards,
Deepthi.

Hi Bhargavi,
In your action method first get the FM name for your Adobe form using
fp_function_module_name.
Then you need to call Adobe form FM.Importing lv_formoutput.
Then you need to call bcs interface. sample logic
lcl_send_request - cl_bcs=>create_persistent( ).
lv_pdfsize = zstrlen( lv_formoutput-pdf ).
lt_pdfcontent = cl_document_bcs=>xstring_to_solix( ip_xstring = lv_formoutput-pdf ).
append the mail body to lt_text.
append mail subject to ls_subject.
then
lcl_document = cl_document_bcs=>create_document( i_type = 'RAW'
                                                                                        i_text = lt_text
                                                                                         i_length = '25'
                                                                                         i_subject = ls_subject ).
atach pdf to mail using
call method lcl_document->add_attachment
     exporting
     i_attachment_type = 'PDF'
     i_attachment_subject = ls_mail_sub
     i_attachment_size = lv_pdf_size
     i_att_content_hex = lt_pdf_content.
lcl_send_request->set_documnt( lcl_document ).
lcl_receipient = cl_cam_address_bcs=>create_internet_address( i_address_string = email id ).
lcl_send_request->add_recipient( i_recipient = lcl_recipient ).
lcl_sender = cl_cam_address_bcs=>create_internet_address( i_address_string = sender email id ).
lcl_send_request->set_sender( i_sender = lcl_sender ).
lv_sent_to_all = lcl_send_request->send( i_with_error_screen = 'x' ).
commit work.

CRM - Mail Forms - more attributes

Hi,
I'd like to insert in the Mail form editor (CRMD_EMAIL) more than one specific value of an attribute. In my CRM 5.0 system this is only possible with products. How does this work with other data, f.e. a business partner has 4 different addresses? I'd like to show all address info of the business partner.
In my specific case, I have a Z-table with contract-information (1partner, n contracts). I'd like to send an e-mail to a business partner with all of his contracts.
Jochen

Hello Jochen,
For your requirement please have a look into customizing under
Marketing
   Marketing Planning and Campaign Management
     Personalized Mail
        Maintain Scenario for Mail Forms
With the 'Scenario for Mail Forms' and the BADI CRM_IM_ADD_DATA_BADI
you can define a scenario for mail forms that allow you to add new
attributes and structures in mail form processing and to restrict
the selection of fields to make the forms easier to read.
I strongly recommend to follow the instructions mentioned in the
help documents for the customizing points
- Scenario for Mail Forms
- BAdI: Maintain Additional Attributes for Mail Forms Scenario
For more information, see the method documentation for the BAdI
- Business add-in interface IF_EX_CRM_IM_ADD_DATA_BADI
Hope this information will be of help!

Mail Form Export to Excel

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to create a file with a list of business partners and corresponding specified attribute values associated with a Target group for a Campaign. The Mail form is used here mainly for File Export.
I have done the required configuration for the mail forms and assigned the usage form to File Export and I have the following Issues.
1 ) How do I assign the Mail Form to a Campaign?
2 ) How will the mail form read the data associated with the attributes (like the BP attribute values associated with campaign for a specific target group) ? Do I have to use a BADI Enhancement for this ?
3) How do I Export the Mail Form data to a .CSV file?
Any inputs on this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks In Advance.
Pooja

SAP Smartforms can be used for creating and maintaining forms for mass printing in SAP Systems. The output medium for Smartforms support printer, fax, e-mail, or the Internet (by using the generated XML output).
Smart Forms
Form Printing in the Internet Age
Smart Forms was introduced in SAP Basis Release 4.6C as the tool for creating and maintaining forms within SAP solutions, such as mySAP CRM, mySAP SCM, mySAP SRM, and mySAP Healthcare, and is already used by numerous customers. Smart Forms provides an easy-to-use graphical user interface which enables you to carry out the crucial tasks of creating and adjusting forms without any programming skills.
Key Benefits of Smart Forms
Smart Forms allows you to reduce considerably the implementation costs of SAP solutions since forms can be adjusted in minimum time.
The process of designing the form and creating the form logic is completely supported by the Form Builder with integrated graphical user interfaces for page design, table design and text. Furthermore, the Form Builder provides a tree structure to navigate through your form description and to determine the main processing order. Of course, drag-and-drop as well as copy-and-paste functions are also included.
