FYI Email from Workflow
Workflow is not sending FYI emails. When I look at STATUS field in WF_NOTIFICATIONS table, it is showing me "CANCELLED" status.
Can any one of you tell me what could me going wrong.
Thanks
Amar
Amar,
There is another possibility (I think).
I looked at something like this some time ago when a test case of mine was failing miserably, and I vaguely recall that WF won't send an FYI notification if the performer is also the owner of the current process. I was starting my process from the WF web pages and setting myself as the process owner, and never received a notification.
Of course, I could be wrong!

Need to send HTML email from Workflow : problem with sender
Hi all,
i need to send HTML email from my Workflow. I did it but i have a problem with the sender. The sender of email is always the agent responsible of workitem, and i don't want the receiver can answer to sender. So i need to put a false email address like nosender.at.mycustomer.com.
Possible to do that ?
Thanks for your help.
CheersHi rick

How to send only email from workflow
Hi Guys,
I want to send an email from a workflow without sending a notification ... how do i do it ?
Thanks In advance
Tom.Hi,
Two possible ways - neither of which I would recommend.
1 - Write a trigger on the WF_NOTIFICATIONS table, so that if the notification for the process that you require is sent, then you populate the mailer status column to 'spoof' the mailer into thinking that it has already sent it. That should suppress the email.
2 - Modify the flow to include an activity prior to the notification to change the recipient preferences to not receive email, send the notification, then change the preferences back.
Email is an "all or nothing" solution - either get email from everything, or get it from nothing. How are they planning on dealing with the notification that they are sent? If they are logging into the application to view the notification, then you could consider sending summary notification emails, and force the users to log into the application to view them all, rather than trying to adopt a half-and-half solution where some things come by email and some only come in the application.
HTH,
Matt

Authentication error when sending email from workflow but list alters email work fine
I have a list. When a user enables alert on this list then he/she is able to receive email from SharePoint when someone adds a new item or change item.
But emails sent by SharePoint workflow or Nintex workflow are not being sent. Error is:
Error 530 5.7.1 Client was not authenticated
Why emails are not being sent by workflows?
EDIT
And by SharePoint workflow, I mean OOB Publishing workflow.Hi Frank,
For solving your issue , you can do as the followings:
1. Check all the email addresses are valid and they are not blocked by your SMTP admin
2. Check firewall settings if emails are blocking by any firewall or antivirus
3. You need to also check SPLog file if anything log there
4. Also create simple workflow with SharePoint Designer 2013, and give proper email to check whether it is working or not
Here is a similar article for you to take a look at:

Sending emails from workflow to Outlook
Hi,
I have a couple of questions regarding generating emails to MS Outlook:
1. Do we have the ability to use RTF format for emails generated out of SAP Workflow to MS Outlook? The default is standard text.
2. Do we have the ability to set a follow-up flag (i.e. date/time) on email generated from SAP Workflow to MS Outlook?
Any help would be greatly appreciated... thanks!Hi,
I will try to answer your questions
1. Do we have the ability to use RTF format for emails generated out of SAP Workflow to MS Outlook? The default is standard text.
Email can be send to MS Outlook using SAPConnect Interface.
You need to call the Task TS99700021 for execution. Using this Task message can be predefined.
Otherwise there is also possibilty to use ABAP Objects to trigger the mail out to MS Outlook.
Note : SAPConnect needs to be configured as prelimary requirement and also Mail Rely needs to be set to send mails to Exchange Server or other mail server,
2. Do we have the ability to set a follow-up flag (i.e. date/time) on email generated from SAP Workflow to MS Outlook?
We have handled the situation by providing Time Stamp information using Custom Code and Tables.
I hope this will help.

I have a simple sharepoint workflow that sends and email to users. I know that the mail portion works because I can put a user's email address in the to: field and it sends fine. If I use a string variable with the email address, I get a workflow
error.
Simple steps to repro for me:
Create a new workflow in SPD (I have tried a list workflow and site workflow)
Create a workflow variable named email.
Set the variable to an email address where the user is in the site
Send email and do a variable lookup to the email variable just set.
The workflow just hangs in this scenario
I do get an error:
Retrying last request. Next attempt scheduled in less than one minute. Details of last request: HTTP BadRequest to https://[tenant].sharepoint.com/_api/sp.utilities.utility.SendEmail
Correlation Id: 568e9c68-ea75-d057-ab9f-d86f6cae3021 Instance Id: 9cc721a4-78e6-456f-812b-67351dfc9710
The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the e-mail has a valid recipient.
Retry nowSimple answer... When I used the variable, I marked it as a string. There is an email address setting.

Moderator message: please have a look in the dedicated Workflow forum.
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Jan 4, 2011 2:30 PMHi Swapnil,
You need to create a background method for this, use FM SWW_SRV_MAIL_SEND to send an email to the outlook instead of sap. This is one way.
Otherwise,
You can use a step type notification email, in that you need to choose the recipient type as email address and specify the email address. -

SCOT don't work correctly when I send mail from Workflow
Hi.
I setting from SU01 the mail of users. I send an email from Workflow, I find this mail in SCOT.
But the SCOT don't send the mail to user.
Can I solve it?
Regards
AngelaHi Angela,
I don't think your problem lies in SAP. You need to check with the exchange guys to see if the e-mail you send is relayed in the exchange server. Depending on your sending address it is possible the exchange server will not send it on. Depending on the place the exchange server is, there is a possibility there still is a firewall which blocks smtp communication.

Send email from custom workflow to group
Hi!
We have Office 365 A2 Plan subscription. We use InfoPath form to submit travel request and custom 2013 workflow made in Sharepoint Designer 2013 to route that form for approval.
If we send email using workflow to individual user it works fine.
Problem occurs when we try to send email to group. we can't send email to security group made in office 365, distribution group from exchange online or security group in exchange online.
My question is: is there any kind of group inside Office 365 (Sharepoint Online or Exchange online) that we can send mail to using workflow and if that is possible, how can we do that?
Thank you,
SDIt is simple powershell script and without such small changes it may not work
May be Office365 team might have given you there AD. If users are in your AD then you need t make sure normally users from outside org can send you email on that email address.
Try to use this email address in Office365 and check if that helps. mostly without AD sync it is difficult -
Send Email from approval task form
In my reusable workflow, I have added an approval action. Everything works perfectly. What I want is - When approver comes to approval form, he should be able to send notification email to the initiator (From that form) that he has started working on that document.
What I have tried - I have added a button clicking on which will submit the form to initiator.
But it fails. possible reason - when I create a data connection in workflow's infopath form to submit form as email, I am getting following warning
"Domain trust form templates cannot be sent as email attachments. to fix this problem, modify the form option to change the security level of form template to restricted".
I also tried to update status field and wait for it to changes in workflow and send an email from sp designer workflow. it didn't work.
Please help or suggest any other possible way to achieve this functionality (Send Email from approval task form to initiator).Hi mry,
I could reproduce on my SharePoint 2013 on-premise based on your another
post.
Based on the the following article, SharePoint workflow cannot use the InfoPath form in restricted mode which doesn't allow the data connection, but as your image warning message shows sending InfoPath form as mail attachments will need restricted level.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ee526352.aspx
You can consider to send a mail to initiator in "Whe a Task Completes" step when you click button approved/rejected, and construct the current task form link format as follow,

How can I send an email from Sharepoint Online using sandbox solution?
How can I send an email from Sharepoint Online using sandbox solution?
If possible I do not want to use workflow.
Is It possible to do it without using workflow?hello Steven Andrews,
when any user sends a message using contact us page in SharePoint online.
1. We are inserting item in Contact Us List . - This is working fine
for anonymous users also. We have used Office365 anonymous codeplex wsp and it is working fine. Anonymous user is able to insert new record in the Contact Us List.
2. Once, new record is inserted in Contact Us list, we want to fire email notifying thanks to the user on his email id as well as to our company x person for notification of new inquiry.
We tried using Workflow having impersonation step for anonymous user but it is not working for Anonymous users. Workflow is able to sent the email if someone logged into system but not working for Anonymous user although workflow is getting started
but not able to send email although used Imperonsation step.
We are stuck into implementing second step. -
My iPhone 5 suddenly started re-downloading all previously deleted emails from my POP accounts
Yesterday, my iPhone 5 started re-downloading all previously deleted emails from my POP email accounts. I use the native Mail app and have three POP emails set up on my phone. The number of messages downloaded across all of them is over 1,000 so far and date back over several months. One of these is a Yahoo account, the others are work email accounts provided by two different hosting companies. I have not changed anything on any of these three accounts at the server/hosting level. I also run an IMAP account on my phone, which has not been affected, so this is obviously a POP-only issue. I started to delete the messages only to discover that older messages were downloaded in their place. There appears to be a cap of 250 messages downloaded at a time, but there's no way to change this in the phone's settings (this used to be a feature, but disappeared some time ago).
I'm on iOS8.3 (upgraded a month ago with no affect on email). I have not changed any of my phone's email settings, so I don't understand why this has happened out of the blue. I have checked the phone's email settings and there doesn't seem to be a way to limit the number of messages downloaded.
Does anyone know:
a. why this has happened, and
b. how I get it to stop?
Thanks!Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!
