Exception in XI sender mail adapter

Hi,
XI sender mail adapter raised the following exception when it was fetching emails from a mailbox on a MS mail server while these mails were sent from a unix system.
Adapter-Error: exception caught during processing mail message [1]com.sap.aii.messaging.lang.com.sap.aii.messaging.lang.BinaryIndexOutOfBoundsException: Binary index out of range: -3
However if I sent the same attachment to the same mailbox from yahoo the XI sender mail adapter can process it correctly.
I would appreciate if somebody could share his/her expertise or experience regarding this issue.
Many thanks.
Zhongliang

I dont think this has got something to do with Unix or Windows system. As per the exceptions is considered, it says that, index out of range, which can occure in cases, by the time it was about to process the next mail, it could have been deleted or moved to some other folder..

Sender Mail Adapter Error: exception caught during processing mail message;

HI , I am configuring mail to file scenario. Need to read mail content (no need to capture From,TO or Subject details) and create a file with the content in the mail.
Need to read mails from microsoft outlook. Exchange server has been configured for POP3 protocol.
Following are the details provoding in sender mail adapter:
URL: provided url in the format: pop://<server name>
Authentication method: plain
provided user credinetions to access mails.
poll interval - 1min
content encoding none.
processing parameters : quality of service-exactly once
Since there is no need to capture From,TO or Subject details, didn't select the option - use mail package.
Verified for unread mails in the mail box and made sure that there are few unread mails.
Also, created data types and other components in IR and completed mapping.
But after starting sender mail communication channel, getting error "exception caught during processing mail message; java.lang.NullPointerException" in RWB-adapter-communication channel monitoring.
please let me know what needs to be done to resolve this error.
Thanks.

HI Stefan, i tried, but still it is giving same error. Yes, i am able to access outlook mail with the user credentials given in the communication channel to access exchange server.
I am using message protocol: xipayload . Also since i dont have to capture TO,from,subject details., created data type just with one element of type string, not in the standard format .Does this makes any difference.

Sender Mail Adapter

Hi,
I am working on Sender Mail Adapter. I have done the total configuration but unable to sucess the scenarios. In the CC monitoring, it is saying that "Not Intialised" Even though i send and receive the messages from My Lotus Notes Inbox. I activated all the objects.
I have done the following examples:
Transport Protocal: POP3
Message Protocal: XIALL
Given the URL and UserId and PWD also
Poll Intevel: 1 (Mins)
Adapter Status: Active
Please help to me solve this problem. I already raised the one more thread today but didn't get solutions.
Note: Do i need to do any setting from the Lotus notes(Mail Server) to diver my messages.
Thanks in Advance,
I found the problem with SMTP Address. Can i use the SMTP Url for POP3 or IMP4 protocal. Is there any thing else because if i use the Same SMTP Address, it is giving exception
Best Regards,
Vijay

Hi Gangisetty,
 SMTP is the out going server(for sending mails out) while POP3 is the in coming(receiving mails) server. So for a sender channel, you need to use the POP server details not SMTP.

Sender Mail Adapter - forcing content as an attachement

Hi all,
We are using the Sender Mail Adapter to pull emails from the inboxes of some users of an exchange server. We use the Mail Package option.
We have noticed that the content of the emails are by-default added as attachments when there are no real attachments to the emails. However the content is not added as an attachment when one or more attachments are present in these emails.
Is there a way of forcing the Sender Mail Adapter to always add the content as an attachment and keeping the other attachments as well? and of course maintain the Mail Package message type as the main payload...?
Many thanks,
Aldo

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your reply. I am glad to hear that I am wrong again )
In your opinion is it possible to force the Outlook Exchange server to add the content attachment every time? I mean by doing some configuration on it...?
The reason why we would like to do this is because when - in the content tag of a Mail Package message - we have MIME message parts that are of content-type text/html we are having problems in decoding the html back to a readable format.
To do this we use the apache QuotedPrintableCodec Java class.
This works fine when the content type of the message is just text/plain but we get an exception when we try with text/html.
The exception we get is:
org.apache.commons.codec.DecoderException: Invalid URL encoding: not a valid digit (radix 16): 13
I don't know if this is because of the two character sets we have in the payload (utf-8 and iso-8859-1) or if it is for other reasons...
If you could help me figure out how to forward any HTML email to another system in a readable format it would be great.
Thanks for your support,
Aldo

Sender Mail adapter encounters MalformedInputException

I have a sender mail adapter that processes the attached .csv file. All is working fine. I use FCC in module to convert the attachment and pass to an IDOC adapter for processing in SAP system.
My problem is sometimes the sender mail CC fails with ...........
exception caught during processing mail message[1]; com.sap.aii.af.mp.module.ModuleException: Transform: failed to execute the transformation: com.sap.aii.messaging.adapter.trans.TransformException: Error converting Message: 'sun.io.MalformedInputException'; nested exception caused by: sun.io.MalformedInputException caused by: com.sap.aii.messaging.adapter.trans.TransformException: Error converting Message: 'sun.io.MalformedInputException'; nested exception caused by: sun.io.MalformedInputException
It only fails with some files. At the moment when we test we FORWARD the email to our email account. If I detach the failed email attachment and attach it to a NEW email it will then work.
So why does it not work when forwarding emails? But it works when I attach the same file to a new email and send?
Other threads for this error seem to point to encoding. But how do I know which to use. I currently use the following in my module config:
Transfer.ContentType     application/octet-stream;charset="ISO-8859-1"

I have this in my configuration:
localejbs/AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean   on local
TRANSFORM
localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean   on local

Sender Mail Adapter issue

Hi All,
We are getting this error in Sender Mail adapter.
"exception caught during processing mail message; java.net.ConnectException: A remote host refused an attempted connect operation"
It is a (Lotus Notes) Mail to File scenario.
Used POP3, and gave the URL as POP:// ** .
I have tried pinging the server and getting a good response.
I have also tried the OS01 ans it returned a response : Program Terminated.
I am not sure if the POP3 port is enabled.
Are there any check points we are missing ?
Please throw some light on this as we need to solve this asap ..
Yashwanth

Shabarish is right.
This seem a connectivity issue. Try to ping Mail server from your PI System and check pop3 port.

Sender Mail Adapter - java.lang.NullPointerException in CC monitoring

hi,
I configured my Sender Mail Adapter correctly.
I have the correct POP URL, authentication. I'm not using PayloadSwapBean right now.
I can't get rid of the exception inside my Channel monitoring.
exception caught during processing mail message; java.lang.NullPointerException
does anyone know why?
I've been told the POP account has emails already.
I will try to create an outlook account for this POP e-mail account in the mean time to see the e-mails.
Thank you

thanks aaron.
I don't see the folder ./SYS/../j2ee/...
will it be under another folder? I don't see a trace log folder either.
I think the problem might be in the Module tab.
I tried.
AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean
localejbs/AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean
/localejbs/AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean
sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean
localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean
/localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean
they all produce the same error. I wonder if these Beans actually exist.
I think we might have to reinstall this Mail Adapter altogether.
Or maybe it's really the connection to the Mail Server. But would it display this kind of message.
This is what I'm looking at.
Also, i had to use this URL
pop://server:995/
(995 is using SSL and it is the default port). When I use this, I see the Java Null Pointer Exception a lot less frequently. Weird.

Error when using Variable Transport Binding in Sender Mail Adapter

Hi,
I am using the Sender Mail Adapter to receive an email, convert the attached tab delimited text file into xml and map it to an IDOC.
I am using PayloadSwapBean and MessageTransformBean in order to do this, and this all works perfectly.
I am now trying to access the Adapter Specific Message Attributes to retrieve the SHeaderFROM attribute from the message and map it to a field in the idoc.
However when I check the "Variable Transport Binding" option in the Advanced tab of the mail adapter, the message no longer goes through to SXMB_MONI and I get the following error in the Java logs.
Transmitting the message to endpoint http://sapserver:53500/sap/xi/engine?type=entry using connection AFW failed, due to: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: Received HTTP response code 500 : Error during parsing of SOAP header.
Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks,
Brad

Hi Luciana,
Honestly, I cant really remember how or if it was resolved and I was just helping out on the issue, but another consultant continued with it, so unfortunately I cant be any help on this.
Good luck!

Sender Mail Adapter - CC Error

Hi,
My scenario is Mail>XI>Proxy(R/3).
The sender mail adapter checks the e-mail box and procces into XI.
I'm getting the following error in the CC:
"exception caught during processing mail message, java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException 0 > = 0"
But, this error is only present when the client try to sent the e-mail data, If i resend the same e-mail manually it works perfectly ( Which led me to think that the CC configuration is correct ).
I'm not ruling out any outlook issue.
Do you guys have experiencied this kind of issue?
Thanks.

Thanks Satish,
I'm sending the same e-mail. (manually works, automatically don´t work)
Also, I can´t see the result of the payload because the error is in CC and only shows that error.
Configuration CC:
Transport Protocol: POP3
Message Protocol: XIPAYLOAD
URL, User,Pass...
Encoding : base64
Quality of service: Exactly Once
- Any suggestions?

Sender mail adapter : no messages and no error log

Hello,
I have configured a sender mail adapter to read mails from the inbox. I have used IMAP protocol. URL is specified as imap://EMHBSEXM01/Inbox. User name and password is also specified properly. I have kept poll interval to 1 minute. Messages in the inbox are in unread status. But the mail is not getting processed. I do not see anything after 1 minute. I tried using generate fetch report flag. But even then it does not create any message in SXMB_MONI. I checked runtime workbench for Mail adapter but I do not see any message for the same. Is there something that I am missing?
Thanks,
Dev

Sender mail adapter - filter emails by attachment?

Dear experts,
I have a sender mail adapter that picks an XSL (EXCEL) attachment from an incoming email and converts it (with a custom adapter module) to XML.
But now how can I make the adapter only process emails with XLS - attachments? In that Inbox I also have emails with HTML-attachments for example. And now my adapter also wants to process those messages.
In my adapter module that makes XLS to XML I see an exception in RWB but the message still gets through to SXMB_MONI where it gets stuck with a red flag.
Can I somehow tell the adapter to only process emails with XLS attachments?
Or can I stop the processing in the adapter module that converts XLS to XML?
Thank you for any input or ideas on this!
Best regards,
Peter
PS: I am using this code to convert XLS to XML:

Sender Mail adapter get no mails

Hello,
we are using the sender mail adapter to receive mails (IDOCS) from a Exchange server.
A few days it works, but suddenly no mails are received.
But in RWB the mail adapter status is green and shows, that there are no new mails. But when I check the mail box with OUTLOOK, there are some mails.
When I deactivate and activate the mail adapter, all mails are read then.
Pollinterval: 1 minute
XI: SP10
Who can help me are had s similar problem?
Or is it possible to stop/start the mail adapter (or the adapter engine) automaitcally (more like a workarround)
best regards

Sender mail adapter - attachment name

Hi there
We have configured a sender email adapter to receive text/csv attachments and save them to a file system. What we are having a problem with is reading the attachment name. So we are using Dynamis Configuration to create the file name using the subject line - Which is not ideal. Ideally we would like to use the same name as the origianl attachment but haven't found any way of doing that. We even tried using Content-type in the Variable Header (XHeaderName1) suing variable transport binding but it doesn't show up in the Dynamic Config part of the SOAP message.
Is there any way of reading the name of the file attachment? We are on PI release 7.0.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
Salil

Hi Vitor
There are 2 scenarios that I can think of -
1. You are saving the email attachment as a file. In that case use step 3 in the earlier reply to get the attachment name and save the file witht that name.
2. You are sending the XML straight to a receiver using HTTP, IDOC, JDBC etc. in which case you would need the attachment name much earlier that step 3. For that I guess you would have to write another adapter module on the sender mail adapter(at Position 3 where position1 = payloadswap bean, 2 = custom module to get the attachment name) and add an xml tag to your incoming message. These adapter modules are really powerful and are like user exits in ABAP. In that case you would have to change the Data Type in the Integration repository to reflect that extra tag. Here is some code from a module we wrote to totally change the structure of the xml coming in. The key thing to remember is this module is that you can read the whole message byte by byte. There might be smarter ways of doing it (like using the SAP XML parser factory class) but since I'm not a Java programmer I stuck to the basics. Here's the code( you could also look at the example given in sap help where they remove (or add I'm not sure) CR(carriage return) from CRLF (CR Line feed).
