Email Problem (Distribution lists)

Hi Experts,
I have a program which sends emails using the FM 'SO_OBJECT_SEND' to a single email id and a distribution list.
When any one of the distribution list recieves the mail, he/she is unable to see who are all the reciepients for this mail(As is the case in BCC).
Peculiarly, this problem is not there in my DEV system but exists in Production system.
Can you please help me out in this regard.
Thanks,
Ravi

How do I email a distribution list in Entourage?

I would like to share some of my distribution lists with friends.
How can I email the distribution list? I can't drag a group icon into the mail message like in Outlook.
Any help is appreciated.
Jeremy

Thanks. I was hoping to find something other than Groups, because when you sync with a mobile device, it maps the groups to Categories in the device. This adds a lot of complexity to data and many mobile devices have some limitations on categories.
But thanks for the quick response!

Is it posible send email to distribution list like group of mails

Hi ,
i need to know if its possible to send email to distribution list via SAP
please let me know the process or program to do so or how to develop it? let me know if its possible by sap or not?
regards
ARORA

Agree with Zarko. But when you add contact for that external user and allow only that sender, the DL will not receive emails from any other users (internal or external).
If you added any entries under "Accept mesages only from Only sendes in below list" then only the entries added will be able to send mail to that DL whether the check box "Require that all senders are authenticated" is selected or not. You may check the
below technet article for more details.

Email to distribution list from SAP Internal Email

I have a scenario where in I have to send email from sap internal email (T-code:-SBWP) to the distribution list.
Can some one give me some idea on the same .
When we go to T-code: - SBWP, for unread email we right click and fwd the email to distribution list, can we achieve the same functionality by a program so that we can automate the process.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Pawan.

Hi,
Yes ,one can write an ABAP code to send the mail to a distribution list.
Please try and use the Function Module 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1' and you need to pass the import and export parameters to this FM which needs to be defined and populated before you use this FM.
The first Exporting parameter is 'document_data' which will be of type 'sodocchgi1'.In order to populate this, you can use the structure of type 'sodocchgi1' and give the name, description, sensitivity and the language by referring to the data type mentioned above('sodocchgi1').
The next is the document type and you can mention any one of them from 'RAW' to anything again refering to the document type.
The next are the tables parameters and the first one is "object_content" which would be of type "solisti1" and you need to populate this one as well.This table would contain the contents of the mail.
The next Tables parameters is "receivers" which would be of type 'somlreci1' and in order to populate this,you need to use the below like code:
smtp_addr = any valid email id.
      gi_recievers-receiver = smtp_addr.
      gi_recievers-rec_type = 'U'.
      gi_recievers-com_type = 'INT'.
      APPEND gi_recievers.
once this is done, an email will be sent to the recipient which can be monitored in the T-code SCOT and SOST.It will take sometime for the mail to be sent as there is a fixed timeline after which the R/3 system pushes the mails through it to the recipients.
I guess, I have tried to answer your question.
In case of any queries,please let me know.

Puneet Jhari.

Error while sending email to distribution list

Hello All,
I am not able to send the email to Shared & Private distribution list.
It is giving an error "Function <Send> not possible"
I can send the email to users by specyfying their email id & recepient type as Internet address while sending mail from the Business Workplace. But we want to send it to users in shared/private distribution list.
SCOT, SMTP are properly configured as per SAP Note 455140.
Interestingly Routing Test in the SAPConnect shows no errors. Also the internal traces are enabled, but it shows nothing for the outbound traces.
Response starting with "220", in the telnet results (for both SAP server & Exchange server) confirms that the SCOT configuration is correct for Mail Host & Mail Port.
We are on ECC6 on Oracle 10g & Windows.
I have searched this forum but couldnot find relevant answer.
If anybody has faced such problem, let me know how to resolve this.
Regards,
Vivdha

Hi,
Check in transaction SCOT. If your mail is in error status in SCOT, you can assure that there is no problem with your code. If your message has not reached till SCOT, then the problem will be with the code.
If the mail is there in scot with error status tell the BASIS to configure it. I feel this could be the problem.

Send email to distribution list.

i have a problem in sending email to a distribution list.
distribution list can be private or shared folders distribution list.
how to get all email id from the distribution list.
how the SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 function module can be used in this scenario.
i have send email to multiple receivers using this function module SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 but content or information are same. this scenario information i am going to send differs for each email ids.
plz help me in this scenario.
regards,
suresh

Suresh
In short, here are the steps:
Before you Call function 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1' in your internal table passed for "receivers" i.e. for email ids set:
receivers-rec_type = 'C' for Shared distribution list or
receivers-rec_type = 'P' for Private distribution list.
and
receivers-receiver = <Distribution list name>
append receivers internal table.
Thats it..all email ids within your distribution list should get the email. This will work.
Let us know if any problems.
Thanks

Can someone help me email to distribution list on my iPhone that I created in Address Book?

I use a Macbook Pro and have no problem emailing to a distribution list I created in Address Book using Mail. However, iPhone Mail does not seem to recognize the "group"...instead I have to enter each person's email address separately in the Send To box. Does anyone know why or what I need to do?

That's not a feature of the iPhone. The phone can not address distribution lists.

Best practice for Active Directory User Templates regarding Distribution Lists

Hello All
I am looking to implement Active Directory User templates for each department in the company to make the process of creating user accounts for new employees easier. Currently when a user is created a current user's Active directory account is copied, but
this has led to problems with new employees being added to groups which they should not be a part of.
I have attempted to implement this in the past but ran into an issue regarding Distribution Lists. I would like to set up template users with all group memberships that are needed for the department, including distribution lists. Previously I set this up
but received complaints from users who would send e-mail to distribution lists the template accounts were members of.
When sending an e-mail to the distribution list with a member template user, users received an error because the template account does not have an e-mail address.
What is the best practice regarding template user accounts as it pertains to distribution lists? It seems like I will have to create a mailbox for each template user but I can't help but feel there is a better way to avoid this problem. If a mailbox is created
for each template user, it will prevent the error messages users were receiving, but messages will simply build up in these mailboxes. I could set a rule for each one that deletes messages, but again I feel like there is a better way which I haven't thought
of.
Has anyone come up with a better method of doing this?
Thank you

You can just add arbitrary email (not a mailbox) to all your templates and it should solve the problem with errors when sending emails to distribution lists.
If you want to further simplify your user creation process you can have a look at Adaxes (consider it's a third-party app). If you want to use templates, it gives you a slightly better way to do that (http://www.adaxes.com/tutorials_WebInterfaceCustomization_AllowUsingTemplatesForUserCreation.htm)
and it also can automatically perform tasks such as mailbox creation for newly created users (http://www.adaxes.com/tutorials_AutomatingDailyTasks_AutomateExchangeMailboxesCreationForNewUsers.htm).
Alternatively you can abandon templates at all and use customizable condition-based rules to automatically perform all the needed tasks on user creation such as OU allocation, group membership assignment, mailbox creation, home folder creation, etc. based on
the factors you predefine for them.

E-mail dispatch to distribution lists

Hi,
I followed note 834102 to dispatch email to distribution list in broadcasting (by Web Template) but it does not worked.
Instead the following error mail is received in the broadcasting customizer inbox:
'Mail could not be delivered'
Message from InterScan Messaging Security Suite ******
Sent <<< RCPT TO:<[email protected]>
Received >>> 550 no such recipient
Unable to deliver message to <[email protected]>.
Is anything else that must be done besides what note 834102 states?
Maybe something about persmissons ..?
I'll appreciate any help.
Best Regards.
End of message **********************

Thanks Ravi for your response.
No, no such kind of reasons.
Indeed I can send successfully to a simple email address but not to the distribution list ...
The problem is right there, in the fact that there is a ditribution list but I really don't know what's the problem ...
Have you ever use a distribution list? Any special thing to do with it?
A'll appreciate any help.
Regards

GroupWise Distribution Lists

Hi,
I was asked by my supervisor to ensure that only internal email clients can send to GroupWise distribution lists, and they cannot send email to GroupWise distribution lists via external email account.
Most of the distribution list has a space between full distribution name. and I was under the impression that as long as there are spaces, it's not a valid SMTP name and no one will be able to send it. Tested with external account (hotmail) and could not send to Distribution lists with spaces as it bounced back as invalid email address.
However, he informed me that problem is there is an option to allow substituting the space with a "." and it works.
I re-tested with a "." between the spaces and it still bounced back, is there anything else I should/could try to ensure that email from external accounts can be sent to GW distribution lists.
Are there no access control lists for distribution groups that we could use here?
Thanks.

You can disable receiving external emails to distribution lists entirely
in the GWIA. "Expand groups on incoming messages" is the setting.
Disable that, and all distribution lists are unreachable from the internet.

Retrieval of Mail Id's present in Distribution lists which has got deleted!

Hi All,
We are facing a problem regarding the deletion of distribution lists (reason not known) and they were retrieved from the trash folder in SBWP (SAP Business Work Place - the SAP inbox). But there was no trace to go back and look who deleted it and what all distribution lists were deleted. We can retrieve only when something is there in the trash folder. If not in trash folder, then itu2019s gone forever and we cannot retrieve.
So we have implemented two OSS notes. Now we are able to get the details i.e. the name of the distribution list as well as who has deleted it.
Now we need to find the mail Idu2019s present in distribution lists which has got deleted.
We have done some analysis but not able to do this.
So can anybody provide needful information.
Regards,
Sagar.

I also face the same problem: distribution list got deleted(reason unknown), you mentioned that you implemented 2 OSS note, can you kindly let me know what are the 2 OSS notes implemented?

Effective Permissions to send email to distribution group having "only senders in the following list"

Our environment is a mixed Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2010 server environment, still in transition (after 4 years). Users have Exchange 2007 mailboxes. A recent problem has been reported in a distribution group access model that has been working without
complaint for several years.
[email protected] has member John Doe ([email protected]), Jane Doe ([email protected]), "only senders in the following list" is set to GroupA
[email protected] has member Rob Smith ([email protected]), Diane Smith ([email protected]), "only senders in the following list" is set to GroupB
[email protected] has members GroupA, GroupB, "only senders in the following list" is set to GroupC
When designed, we thought that when [email protected] sends an email to [email protected] it would be resolved to the user members of GroupC and delivered to everyone ([email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]). (While
it seems unlikely, that this model has functioned for several years without experiencing this problem, it is conceivable that until recently [email protected] and [email protected] have with few exceptions always had the same membership. Recent changes in
our organizational model have caused this to have some exceptions, and may be the root cause of this problem.)
What we are experiencing is that users [email protected] and [email protected] receive the original email. Users [email protected], [email protected] do not receive the email. [email protected] receives an email "Undeliverable: test
Delivery has failed to these recipients or distribution lists:
[email protected]
Your message wasn't delivered because of security policies. Microsoft will not try to redeliver this message for you. Please provide the following diagnostic text to your system administrator. Sent by Microsoft Exchange Server 2007.

What is the expected behavior?
Does Exchange resolve the "To" distribution group to member mailboxes for delivery purposes, or does it walk the subordinate child groups and check security at each level?
Is this a configurable behavior that may have recently changed as we have a "new" Exchange Admin poking around?
Might this be related to the mixed Exchange 2007 / 2010 environment?
Is there a way to obtain "effective permissions" for delivery restrictions?
emc2

Hi,
From your description, I would like to verify if you have done some changes for GroupB distribution group. Ensure that "[email protected]" is added to the "accept list" in GroupB's message delivery
restrictions.
What's more, are GroupA GroupB and GroupC Exchange 2010 distribution groups?

Distribution list do not appear in TO: field when user wants to send email

All the blackberry users in the corporate are on BES server. When user enters the first few letters of a person or the # sign and the first few letters for the distribution list in TO: field, the email addresses are showing up from Global Address List (GAL) for example, and they can choose the email address.
There is a particular issue with one user. His bb does not show any distribution list when he types # sign. The individual contacts from GAL are showing up after typing the first few letters though.
User has a personal account apart from the corporate account.
I can not figure out the problem.
We recently wiped his bb and activated it, because he did not have the option to reply or forward his emails.
If you know what could be the solution apart from reactivating the bb, please let me know.
Regards,

Hello,
Honestly, from your original description, your users have a function I've never seen. To access the GAL from my BB, I must enter some characters and then use the Lookup function. Your description does not include the Lookup, so I honestly have no idea how your users are configured. From what you describe, it sounds like you are somehow (and for some reason) pushing the entire GAL to each device and this is not working on that one device. But, honestly, with Lookup, I can see no reason to want to push the full GAL out.
Good luck!

Email ALV report to a distribution list

Hi all,
I have scheduled an alv report (uses ALV Grid) to run in the background using SM36.I put the spool list to be delivered to a set of people whose addresses are in the distribution list. The mails are being received by the users. But the problem is : <b>There are around 20 columns in the report but only info upto 15 columns are being sent as a PDF. There is no problem with the number of rows being sent. It's only the width of the report has been shortened. Can anyone help me out with this please, it is a urgent requirement.</b>
Satish

Hello,
In general I'd recommend you should always use a full address for your email recipients. Your mail server should handle a fully qualified address even for local delivery, however by using the fully qualified version you protect yourself from any configuration changes on the mail server that would stop local addressing working.
Just my thoughts.
John.
