EMAIL SMTP Authentication

Hi,
we have a email server outside our company that needs a authentication.
When i´m correct then
utl_smtp has authentication but no clob attachment function
and apex_mail has clob attachments but no authorisation.
Is there one trick to get both features ?
Thanks
Marco

Marco,
Using utl_smtp gives you more control over creating e-mails.
Utl_smtp can be used for attachment functions (clob, blob, etc.).
First of all you need to think about how to send the attachment, i.e. quoted-printable, base64, etc.
If you have figured that out, you can use the utl_smtp.write_data to set the headers and to add the attachment (or use utl_smtp.write_raw_data for the attachment in case of base64).
Anywayz, there is enough information available on the internet about this.
Cheerz,
Marco

  • Send Email SMTP Authentication not working

    Hello,
    I have the following Problem, I want to send E-mail via the Send Email Activity to Mailing Lists/Group. But the authentication doesn't work, the Exchange says I dont have the needed permissions. I have filled all the Data into Advanced -> SMTP authentication.
    The strange thing it works with the same Account if it is used inside the Service Manager.
    We use Exchange 2010 & Orchestrator 2012 SP1.

    Hi,
    perhaps the Runbook Service account or IP address have no rights as relay at the Exchange-SMTP (?).
    I suggest to test at the Runbook Server(s) via telnet:

  • Smtp authentication for email invites with RTC

    I'm trying to configure email invitations for Real-Time conferences and am following the documentation.
    Problem I'm encountering is we use smtp host authentication with Exchange but I don't see any way to set this up for RTC invites.
    rtcctl> setProperty -system true -pname EmailEnabled -pvalue true
    rtcctl> setProperty -system true -pname SmtpHost -pvalue "mail-net.company.com"Where do I set an SMTP username and password?
    Thanks.

    Any comments from Oracle? Isn't anyone doing smtp authentication for outbound emails?

  • GWIA SMTP Authentication

    I've read a number of posts on this topic but still need some clarification.
    Please forgive my lengthy explanation as I'd like to lay out the scenario properly - my questions are at the bottom of this post.
    My current setup is Groupwise 7.0.3 with a GWAVA5 appliance as the front end.
    All mail should go through GWAVA both inbound and outbound.
    We have an MX record that points to our GWAVA5 appliance
    We also have smtp pointing to our GWIA server for imap/pop connections by our mobile users, with authentication required.
    I was advised by one of our users that he received mail containing an attachment "message.zip" which contained "message.htm" disguising an ".exe"
    containing a virus.
    The header showed the following, with the actual domain name changed by me for security reasons.
    The IP of the sender is intact.
    Return-path: <>
    Received: from "ourdomain.com" ([115.248.180.37])
    by "our_smtp_server.com" with ESMTP; Sat, 07 Apr 2012 07:07:41 -0400

    The following is the entry from the GWIA log on the date in question:

    07:07:43 359 DMN: MSG 462912 SMTP session ended: [115.248.180.37] ()
    Questions:
    It appears that the sender attached to our GWIA and sent the message from there.
    The "mailer-daemon" indicates it was disguised to look like a system-generated bounce message.
    What in my configuration would allow this?
    Within the properties of my GWIA, I do not have "reject mail if sender's identity cannot be verified".
    I've read the admin guides on this feature and it seems to point to PTR records checks.
    Would that prevent this incident?
    We have a number of internal servers that do send mail, through our GWIA, and I have relay exceptions for those (otherwise relay is not allowed)
    If I set the "reject mail......" how will that affect those internal servers - will they need an actual account to authenticate with.
    Hope I've explained it clearly
    Thanks in advance
    Vince

    Thanks Uwe, but the sending machine is actually located "out there somewhere" [115.248.180.37] not on our network, so can't be checked.
    As you stated, I'm sure this isn't a relaying issue as we have relay disallowed, with exceptions.
    I suspect the mail went through because the sender used "[email protected]"

    To prevent such issues, you could modify the access control of the GWIA and allow SMTP only for those machines/users who need it.
    Relaying doesn't come into play here, since the sender addresses an internal recipient, so no SMTP authentication needed.

  • Moved from DC to NC now smtp authentication with Cox won't work on roadrunn

    I just moved from DC to NC. I have a cox.net email I prefer to use. Cox allows smtp authentication over other ISPs. I had RCN in DC and it worked perfectly. But now, with Time Warner (RoadRunner), it doesn't work. (Incoming still works fine, this is just about outgoing/smtp.) The smtp authentication is set up EXACTLY as it was in DC, but the connection just times out. Oddly, it works fine when I am connected directly to the cable modem. BUT, it does not work when I am connected to my wireless network using an airport extreme. I have deleted the smtp server a hundred times. I have selected SSL and unselected SSL a hundred times. I have tried no authentication. I have tried removing the "cox.net" after my name in the outgoing mail settings. I have reset the airport extreme to factory settings and set the network up again. NOTHING is working. Why would this work directly connected to the modem but not through the EXACT SAME WIRELESS NETWORK and settings I had with RCN??? Any tips/help is greatly appreciated. Oh, and all of my other non-RoadRunner smtp authentication accounts work fine. And my me.com email works fine.

    Thanks again, Bob! Here is the error I'm getting for all three usual ports (25, 465 & 587):
    CONNECTED Apr 07 08:26:51.776 [kCFStreamSocketSecurityLevelNegotiatedSSL] -- host:smtp.west.cox.net -- port:465 -- socket:0x116c00450 -- thread:0x116f54800

    554 fed1rmimpo03.cox.net bizsmtp connection refused from 71.77.138.209
    It looks to my untrained eye that the cox servers are refusing me. Is that correct? So I should call cox, right? And how do I find the IP address that I'm being refused under?
    Sorry to be so ignorant, but your help is greatly appreciated!

  • Smtp authentication 10.8

    Hi,
    In 10.7 we could lock the SMTP service down to requiring a username and password.
    In 10.8 it appears that anyone can send via the server, as long as they have the address. No very secure!!!
    We did a simple upgrade from 10.7-10.8.
    Obviously Server.app has been trimmed down severely, is there a way in terminal to require a user/password for SMTP authentication?

    I have the same problem - user has Outlook 2010 on Exchange 2007. Mail goes directly into the deleted items folder. After browsing around the net I found 2 different site with the same potential fix. It seems that when migrating a user from Exch 2003 to
    2007 (which we did) some of the configs get set incorrectly. The weird thing is we migrated over 2 years ago, and some others are experiencing the same after a long period after the migration. The fix that was suggested is:
    Go to your Exch server, open up Exchange Management Shell and type the following:
    get-mailboxcalendarsettings "domain/ou/user" | fl 
    set-mailboxcalendarsettings "doman/ou/user" -automateprocessing: Autoupdate 
    My user already had Autoupdate set, but this seems to have fixed it for me...

  • SMTP authentication problem

    I try to send mail with a Javamail client code (you can see the code below), it works fine if the mail server doesn't require SMTP authentication to be relay, but SendFailedException occurs if the mail server security setting is set to SMTP requires authentication (same settings as POP usr/pwd) on the mail server.
    I believe it is an issue of SMTP authentication.
    How do I code for SMTP authentication with Java Mail API?
    Thanks!

    same options the other two machines have, but neither
    option works on this machine.
    This is one of those error messages that they send application programmers to school for so that they can include error messages that don't tell you what the problem is.
    After much trial and error, I discovered that this message is returned if there is an error in the recipient's email address. Perhaps, if it was stored in the address book, it became corrupt. I've found that manually typing in the address (without automatically finishing it from cache) usually fixes the problem. I just spoke to a customer this morning with the same error message, and entering the recipient's email address manually corrected the problem.

  • SMTP authentication disabled in Outlook

    Hello,
    Was a security or outlook update recently released that disabled SMTP authentication in Outlook 2003/2007?  I've had several users report that this has been disabled; all are using various flavors of Outlook and Windows.

    Hi,
    “SMTP requires authentication” option is set when using a POP3, IMAP or HTTP account in Outlook. If you are using Outlook 2007, we need to follow these steps to configure it:
    1. On the Tools menu, click Account Settings.
    2. Select the account you want to change.
    3. Click More Settings, and then you can change the following:
    4. On the Outgoing Server tab, you can specify whether your outgoing SMTP mail server requires authentication. This is almost always required if your ISP allows you to send e-mail messages through your ISP e-mail account when you are not
    directly connected to the ISP network, for example, if you want to send an e-mail message with your home ISP e-mail account and you are away from home connected to your work network.
    For more information about it, please refer to the following article:

    Thu Dec 25 13:09:00 2008 Info: ICID 184830 REJECT SG BLACKLIST match sbrs[-10.0:
    -3.0] SBRS -4.0
    I think the problem is that the IP address you're coming from (i.e. *.
    .broadband.ctm.net) has a low SBRS score and you're getting stopped by the HAT Overview/Blacklist sendergroup first, before you're allowed to transmit your username/password.
    Therefore, I don't think the problem is with the smtp auth at this point. It's the low SBRS score.
    Try this.
    Create a custom/new sender group just for your ISP and put it at the top of your HAT Overview (or at least above the Blacklist).
    1. Create a new sendergroup called "Accept-Broadband". Set the connection behavior to be "Accept"
    2. Make sure the order is at the top.
    3. For the senders, add ".broadband.ctm.net" to the list of connecting host.
    4. This way, you can make sure your connections don't get stopped by the Blacklist.
    Then, try the smtp auth again. Try and get that to work first.
    We'll discuss the low SBRS score issue later once the smtp auth is working.
    And by the way, there's nothing wrong with you, it's just broadband.ctm.net has a low sbrs score. It's like the passenger in the taxi is okay, but the taxi driver is bad.

  • SMTP authentication description

    Hi everyone :
    I don't know what is Ironport SMTP authentication feature after reading the Adv-UserGuide.
    Is it the smtp authentication use to authen the user connect to email server and How it work between email server and client if it is , As we know Ironport is email gateway , How Ironport can control the user connect to email server ?
    Is it only work for Outgoing email authentication ?
    thx thx !

    I would say that SMTP Authentication is most commonly used for a segment of your end users that are traveling on business or work outside of the internal company network and can't be connected directly to the company mailserver to send out their outgoing mail.
    Since a user outside the network may not be able to directly connect to the corporate mailserver, what mail administrators try to set up is the IronPort appliance to do smtp authentication against an Active Directory server for example and then if the sender authenticates, they'll be able to relay using the IronPort appliance.
    If you run into any problems or questions, feel free to post the issue here and we'll try to iron it out.

  • SMTP Authentication Function

    Hi, i want to ask the function of smtp authentication in ironport. Is it used to authenticate with the exchange server or per client using LDAP? When i configure the smtp authentication, is it used for incoming or outgoing connection ? Thanks.
    Regards

    Dear Alkuin,
    For SMTP authentication configuration, you can configure SMTP auth profile under 'Network'-'SMTP Authentication' (LDAP, forward and outgoing).
    In my opinion, you can choose to enable SMTP AUTH in mail flow polic(ies) of existing listener (port 25) and/or a new listener using another port (say port 8025). The reason to use 'port number other than port 25' is that some residential ISP or hotel internet connection will block outgoing port 25 connection (due to antispam reason - blocking botnet/malware infected hosts to send spams and ISP IP address gets blacklisted).
    For existing listener, you can configure SMTP AUTH "Preferred" setting in default mail flow policy, and then users can authenticate and then relay emails through IronPort from public IP address (configure email client's outgoing SMTP gateway with IronPort public IP address and port 25). One point to note is that if the user is sending from a poor reputation IP, their SMTP connection may be blocked or throttled.
    For listener using port number other than 25 (e.g. 8025) , you can configure to have just one sender group with default mail flow policy configured with SMTP AUTH "Required". The email client needs to configure with outgoing SMTP gateway with IronPort listener's public IP address and specific port number (say port 8025). In this way, only authenticated user can relay emails through this listener and they can avoid port 25 blocking issue or sending host's reputation issue as mentioned above.
    Cheers,
    Tommy

  • CFMAIL SMTP authentication with CF5

    I need to use CFMAIL to send email notifications via an
    exchange server. The issue: the server is running CF 5 and the
    exchange server requires SMTP authentication. As you may all know,
    there's no way to pass a username and password in CF5.
    So my question is, is there a module available for CF5 that
    will achieve similar results.
    Sadly I can't upgrade to CF MX 6, 7 or 8.

    It's been quite a while since I worked with CF 5, but you can
    try setting up the mail server address like this:
    username:[email protected]
    On a side note, is there any reason why you (or the client)
    are not considering an upgrade? I mean, I think HTTP 1.1 was still
    the standard when 5 was released - it's about 40 "
    technology years" old now. *just wondering*
