Gettign special characters while sending EMAIL Package

Hi All,
I wrote a PLSQL package to send a mail.
While receiving mail , i am getting "!" special characters in the email.
Anybody is any idea to avoid the special characters.

Anybody is any idea to avoid the special characters.Write 7bit ASCII e-mail payloads, and do not use HTML formatting.
Remember that your code creates the payload (Internet Message Body) that is delivered (via SMTP) to the mail server. Your code controls the complete content of that message body.
And when in doubt, look at the raw message payload received by the e-mail reader. E-mail readers will often render it differently, depending on the formatting rules and styles supported by that e-mail reader. And this is true even for plain text e-mails.
If you can show us how the e-mail looks like and the code used to generate, perhaps we can be of more help.

How does one escape special characters while compile the package.

Hi
The below is my function, while compiling the function in SQL plus it’s asking the substitute values, still I want to & symbol this column 'S&P Long Term Rating'
now my question is how to avoid while compiling substitute values
FUNCTION get_attribute_list RETURN t_ref_cursor AS
lv_array varchar2_table_type := varchar2_table_type('Emerging Market Flag'
,'Region Code'
,'Region Name'
,'Moody''s Rating'
,'S&P Long Term Rating'
,'Credit Rating'
,'Region ISO'
,'Loan Country Code'
,'Loan Country Name'
,'What If Emerging Market Flag');
lv_ref t_ref_cursor;
lv_step_name a_run_log.step_name%TYPE;

SET DEFINE OFF is the best solution, as long as you don't need substritution variables elsewhere in the function.Agreed, however, just to toss out an alternative I use alot:
anytime I encounter a "special" or "odd" character (ie &, CR, LF, TAB, whatever ...)
I usually resort to stuffing it into a constant variable :)
Of course, the OP's code might beg why the hardcoding in the proc? If the values being passed in via parameters, none of this is an issue. :)
(in other words - if the OP is encountering this "issue" with a simple test - it might be worth mentioning - it might not be an issue with the "production" code - assuming things are being passed in via parameters)
set serverout on
declare
   lc_Amp   VARCHAR2(1) := CHR(38);   -- Ampersand
   lv_var   VARCHAR2(100);
begin
   lv_var := 'S' || lc_Amp || 'P Long Term Rating';
   dbms_output.put_line ( lv_var );
end;

Problems with Special Characters on Exchange Email

Hello:
People I have a issue with our Corporate Email on my Iphone. We use Exchange 2003 and we have users with special characters on his emails address.
I receive fine the email, just appear a errors on the display name. The issue is when I try to reply thie email. A error message popup said:
Invalid Address
"email with special characters" does not appear to be a valid email address. Do you want to send it anyway?
If I press Yes, Iphone try to send the message But I receive another error message:
Cannot send Mail
An error ocurred while delivering this message.
Any Help or Idea?
Here My Email Configuration
Email = Email
Server = Server IP
Domain = Work Domain Name
Username = my user id
Password = my password
Description = Work
Use SSL = ON
S/Mime = Off

When I Said "we have users with special characters on his emails address" its mean users with ñ,ó, ú, Ñ on his emails address.
When I said "just appear a errors on the display name" I mean characters like ÂÃ±¡
Thanks

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.

MailServiceHelper Failed while sending email java.lang.NullPointerException

Hi guys,
I am trying to send email with Adobe CQ API.
But i am getting a nullpointer exception at this line: MsgGateway.send(htmlEmail);
This is my method that i am using to send.
import com.day.cq.mailer.MessageGateway;
import com.day.cq.mailer.MessageGatewayService;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;
   public boolean sendHtmlEmail(SlingHttpServletRequest sling,
            String fromMailAdress, List<String> recepientmailAddress,
            String emailSubject, String htmlbodyMail) {
        HtmlEmail htmlEmail = new HtmlEmail();
        List<InternetAddress> emailAddress = new ArrayList<InternetAddress>();
        try {
            for (String recipient : recepientmailAddress) {
                if (!StringUtil.isEmpty(recipient)) {
                    emailAddress.add(new InternetAddress(recipient));
                    log.error(recipient);
            if (!StringUtil.isEmpty(fromMailAdress)) {
                htmlEmail.setFrom(fromMailAdress);
            htmlEmail.setTo(emailAddress);
            htmlEmail.setSubject(emailSubject);
            htmlEmail.setHtmlMsg(htmlbodyMail);
            htmlEmail.setCharset("utf-8");
            MessageGatewayService MsgService = getMessageGateWayService(sling);
            MessageGateway<HtmlEmail> MsgGateway = MsgService.getGateway(HtmlEmail.class);
            MsgGateway.send(htmlEmail);   //nullpointer exception caught here
            return true;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            log.error("Failed while sending email", e);
        return false;
I have checked to ensure the bundle com.day.cq.cq-mail and my own bundle is running .
I am also sure that 'htmlEmail' is not null by retrieving the email subject via .getSubject and it did return me the subject.
I do not understand what is returning the nullpointerexception.
Thanks in advance !

The MessageGateway instance (MessageGateway<HtmlEmail> MsgGateway) is null therby throwing a null pointer.
Instead of instanciating msgGateway as :
MessageGatewayService MsgService = getMessageGateWayService(sling);
MessageGateway<HtmlEmail> MsgGateway = MsgService.getGateway(HtmlEmail.class);
Inject your MessageGateway as:
@Reference
private MessageGateway<HtmlEmail> msgGateway;
and then call send on msgGateway as msgGateway.send(htmlEmail)

Thanks for the reply.
My issue is fixed now. It is JBOSS configuration issue. Sessions are not maintained properly that's why we are getting NULL profile in the session. Our application has multiple WARs so we fixed it by setting emptySessionPath to TRUE. If emptySessionPath attribute in server.xml is false, then each WAR will have its own jsessionid cookie.
I did not touch ProfiledMessageSource as its required for session triggering.

Reader XI: An Error Occurred While Sending Email

Please help. I am working on a Windows XP computer (SP3, fully updated) with Microsoft Office Outlook set as the default email.
I recently updated this computer to Adobe Reader XI. Whenever the user tries to "Send File as Eamil Attachment" (either using the button or using the File menue option) they get an Adobe Reader message "An error occured while sending email."
I've checked every setting I can think of. Under Preferences - Internet - Internet Settings - Programs, her email is set as Outlook. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe. I've tried removing and re-adding the Outlook account. I've chcekd for viruses and malware. What else could be causing this problem? I haven't seen this happen on any of our other XP machines.

hi,
I have updated from reader x to xi, now outlook 2010 users can no longer attach emails, this use to work fine. I posted this issue elsewhere where someone had trouble with outlook 2003. Outlook either opens up with no attachment or nothing happens at all.
If can help
thanks

String gets added to the name of the PDF while sending email

Hi,
I am generating a PDF from a smartform. When i click on the email button on the PDF, it opens outlook with the PDF in the attachment. But i can see some string gets added to the begining of the name of PDF for example if i have named the PDF as 18000012 then while sending email from PDF i can see the name as XXXXX1800012.pdf as the attachment. Is there any way by which i can remove that string.
Thanks,
Sonal

You can use text variables in the report description

Sure, when you are adding your entry to the packing list, give the name in the obj_name field.
*File 2
mailbin = 'This is file 2'.
append mailbin.
data: start type i.
data: end type i.
start = tab_lines + 1.
describe table mailbin lines end.
mailpack-transf_bin = 'X'.
mailpack-head_start = 1.
mailpack-head_num = 1.
mailpack-body_start = start.
mailpack-body_num = end.
mailpack-doc_type = 'TXT'.
mailpack-obj_name = 'TEST2'. "<- RIGHT HERE

Error while sending email from MOSS portal

Hi,
I have configured email settings on my MOSS central admin, still MOSS throws error while trying to send emails to AD users. I tried to give permission for a user in a site and it threw this error:
The user or users have been added successfully, but there was an error in sending the e-mail message. The server may not be set up correctly to send e-mail.

Ok, issue solved!! The issue was that I had to set anonymous connection directly to server. Error provided by SharePoint didn't help at all. After hours of hair-pulling and head-banging, I found a nice article that detailed how to troubleshoot e-mail issues:
http://www.tonytestasworld.com/post/2009/04/09/SharePoint-2007-Outgoing-E-mail-Troubleshooting-Tips.aspx
In the above article, the troubleshooting step 5 was the breaking point. As suggested in the blog:
http://www.sharepointblogs.com/johnwpowell/archive/2007/07/10/alerts-failing-cannot-connect-to-smtp-host.aspx
I created a C# console application and it gave me the correct error:
The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.1 Client was not authenticated
So I used this code to create an SMTP test application:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Net.Mail;
public class Program
public static void Main(string[] args)
try
// Check arguments
if (args.Length != 3)
ShowUsage();
return;
// Create message
MailMessage mmMessage = new MailMessage();
mmMessage.To.Add(new MailAddress(args[2] as string));
mmMessage.From = new MailAddress(args[1] as string);
mmMessage.Subject = "TestMail";
mmMessage.Body = "This is a test";
// Send message
SmtpClient sc = new SmtpClient(args[0] as string);
sc.Send(mmMessage);
catch (Exception ex)
Console.WriteLine(ex);
finally
//Pause
Console.WriteLine();
Console.Write("Press a key >");
Console.ReadKey();
private static void ShowUsage()
Console.WriteLine("Usage");
Console.WriteLine("TestMail [SmtpServer] [FromAddress] [ToAddress]");
} // end Program
This command saved lots of trouble for me and solved the email issue:

Error while sending emails from SOA 11G BPEL

Hi All,
I have configured an error email in my catch/catch-all blocks. Incase I dont have any retry action in my faultpolicies.xml file, the error email is sent fine. However if any remote/binding fault occurs and retry is done on partnerlink, in those cases the Error Notification service fails with below error:
ORABPEL-31015
Error while sending notification.
Error while sending notification to email.
Possible causes : SDPMessaging Driver not configured; Invalid To Address is used; Email server/Messaging gateway is down; using IP address as part of email ID instead of domain name;.
Caused by: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: While trying to look up comp/env/ejb/services/NotificationServiceBean in /app/ejb/ejb_ob_engine_wls.jar#BPELActivityManagerBean.; remaining name 'comp/env/ejb/services/NotificationServiceBean'
sendEmailNotification WSIF Exception occured. Please check stack trace "Cannot get Object part 'Responses'. No parts are set on the message"
If I throw a remote/binding fault (throw activity), the error email gets sent. However whenever the retry happens incase of a fault, the above error comes.
Any idea what can be reason behing this...
Regards
Subhankar

try to call a sub process from your catch all block and use the email activity in that subprocess. this should work
