How to configure incoming email to SharePoint List? Facing problem please help.

Hi,
I am beginner in SharePoint 2013 Administration. I am working with Migrated system from MOSS 2007 to sharePoint 2013.
I am facing issue with SharePoint 2013 List incoming email setting. It was working in MOSS 2007 system.
I did:
Whenever I am trying to specify list (incoming) email id and submit it. I am getting following error.
"Unable to assign this e-mail address to the list, because the address is in use."
When Users are sending email to list they are getting "Undelivery" notification.
Please help.
Thanks,
Rajat

Hi Rajat,
There might be below options you can try to resolve the issue.
1. There is a bug that sometimes causes this issue. If you update the description of the list and try again, it may resolve your problem.
2. If you have SharePoint setup to create contacts in AD, have you verified there is not a lingering AD contact with the e-mail address? If so, you may need to delete it so the address is available in AD.
Also please check whether other document library is using the same email id for incoming email setting or not.
see below thread for more on this.

  • Configuring a Virtual Server with static IP problem - please help me

    Hi,
    I have a 2012 R2 server which has 1 Ethernet NIC adapter configured using a static IP (Web server).
    Using Hyper-V on this dedicated server, I want to host 4 virtual servers, each with their own external static IP.
    I figured I could set these up using this same NIC adapter (Shared)?
    Every time I create an 'External network' in the 'Virtual Switch Manager' using this selected NIC adapter - it loses web connection and I have to switch to a KVM to reset the NIC adapter back to its original config.
    I've tried enabling and disabling:
    'Allow management operating system to share this network adapter'
    But each results in the host server losing web connection entirely.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Many thanks for anything you can suggest or recommend me reading would be much appreciated.

    The error is a very basic one - the sapmsPRD service is not known. You will have to go to <NT_ROOT>\system32\drivers\etc and add the entry sapmsPRD 3600 to this file.
    This is basically telling the requester at what port to look for the message server.

  • Can I configure incoming email to a Calendar in SharePoint Online 2013?

    I'd like to send invitations from my Outlook Calendar to my SharePoint Calendar inSharePoint Online 2013. Is there a way to do this? I've searched and see that I need to change the Incoming Mail Settings, but that doesn't appear under
    Communications in SharePoint Online.   I'm not sure how to configure the Incoming Mail Settings to appear under Communications in SharePoint Online.

  • Custom DocLib Listdefinition (ListType 10000) show no Custom Action to configure incoming email

    Hi,
    I need to add a custom listdefinition based on a Document Library which has a listtype like 10000. Libraries created with this listdefinition do not show the custom action to configure incoming email (settings > incoming email). 
    I heard that this custom action only shows with libraries created with listtype 101. How can I add this custom action to my custom document library.
    Thanks
    Cheers
    Sven

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to show the incoming email settings in your custom document library.
    SharePoint only shows Incoming Email settings link for OOTB lists of type Announcements, Event, Document Library, Picture Library, XML Form, Discussion Board, Posts.
    So, if you create a custom list, you need to create a custom email event handler and attach to your list and then Incoming Email settings link will be available.
    Here is a detailed thread with the solution for your reference:

  • How can anyone add to a SharePoint list but only some can edit all fields?

    My office has a list on our SharePoint for product requests. We were trying to make it so that the "+Add Item" link was available to all who want to request a map but only specific fields such as Name or Description would be editable on their
    end. Once the item is in the system, the SharePoint admins in our office could update things like Status or Analyst. However, after talking to the individual in charge of our SharePoint permissions told us that we cannot set this basic ability to "everybody"
    and instead need to create a special group with limited permissions. Unforunately we have high-turnover between our office and other locations and see this causing a problem in the near future. Is there a work around such as creating a web app or form that
    will push the necessary data into the SharePoint list or maybe just send it via email to designated recipients in our office to process it?

    I do not see any simple solutions here.  You have various options, each with different limitations and each will require some effort to implement.  Mix and match as best meets your needs:
    Create a standard list as usual*. In the lists's Advanced settings, in the Item-Level Permissions group, select the options Read all items and Create items and edit items that were created by the user.  This approach lets users create their own items
    and edit them, and they can still view other's, but they cannot edit other's.  Note: some list templates do not provide the Item-Level Permissions group of settings.
    Create a custom permissions level: copy it from Contribute.  Remove all of the Edit and Delete list permissions.  This approach lets your users create new and view existing entries, but not delete or edit them.
    Configure Incoming Email, and email-enable the target list.  You can configure the list to accept email according to the permissions that person has with respect to the list.  Thus, for example, a person with Contribute permission level would
    be able to send email to the list but a person with Read permission level would not.
    Create the list.  This will also create default New, Edit and View forms.  Customize the New form in SharePoint Designer 2013 so as not to display the fields you do not wish the user to edit.
    Create new site fields and content types: create one content type that displays only a few of these new fields and the other that displays all of them.  Add these to the list.  Configure a custom content type as the default for the list that displays
    only a few fields.  Users will see this content type when they create a new entry.  Edit the New list form to display only this content type.  Edit the View list form to display only this content type.

  • Can a workflow email another SharePoint List/Library?

    I’m working on building out some automation in SharePoint to address some gaps in a currently manual process, but I’ve run into a snag.
    Right now I have a custom tracking list for a group of users to use for checking the status of their requests. Based on the status, a workflow will kick off notices to the users letting them know where their requests are at. I want to expand upon this by
    building an announcement list to receive emails from users (one of the few list templates that is configurable for this) to manage the growing volume of correspondence they produce. By having a list, I can create a workflow to auto sort, tag/categorize, and
    auto-respond to emails based on tags/categories in ways that Outlook can’t. For the sake of non-repudiation and as evidence that the workflows are working correctly, I want to save copies of the notices SharePoint sends to 3<sup>rd</sup> list as
    an archive. My 3<sup>rd</sup> list was also configured off the announcement list but it is not receiving the emails from the workflow. Since it is using the SharePoint exchange service account, I’m wondering if this a technical limitation that
    cannot be resolved, or if there is a missing configuration we need to do on our end that is preventing this from working?
    Essentially I’m trying to have SharePoint email itself from one list to another. Has anyone tried this or been successful?
    (I prefer lists over libraries in this case because this is going to be moderately large scale data and I won’t have to drill down into documents for info. Lists also open of the possibility for more complex workflows later on should the need arise)
    Tracking List (Custom List Template)     Incoming Requests (Announcement List Template)
                                   Archive (Announcement List Template

    When we consider that email is simply a communications protocol being leveraged by the workflow, it becomes clear that the problem most likely lies in the email enablement of your Archive list.  If your Archive list is indeed identical to the Requests
    list, then I would take a look at configuration for email on that list as it probably isn't configured correctly.  Additionally, you may wish to double check the email alias you're using in the workflow.  Sending email to the wrong email address
    is just a slip of the keyboard but can result in many hours of debugging.  Ultimately, I would recommend tracking the email through Exchange logs to see if it's received and sent correctly.
    I trust that answers your question...
    Thanks

  • Emailing a sharepoint list

    I want to email my sharepoint announcements list, but i need more than just the title and the body column. I need a picture URL column too. Is there some way to specify in the email that i send what goes to which column.
    I have searched around but was unable to find anything.
    Thanks

    Sorry for misunderstanding. In that case you need to configure incoming email for that announcement list.
    Subject will be Title
    email body will be announcement body 
    and email attachment will be announcement attachment
    Enable and configure e-mail settings for an announcement list
    Enable
    and configure e-mail support for a list or library

  • Incoming Email in SharePoint 2013

    Trevor,
    Side question - I need to configure incoming email; since I have multiple WFE Servers & APP Servers and based on Q&A at the link below (is the hotfix part of the December cumulative update 15.0.4551.1511 or I have to apply it separately)?
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/f9f1d254-0f9e-4eec-a1c7-a94252668680/sharepoint-2013-incoming-mail-with-nlb?forum=sharepointgeneral
    Note that the SPLockJobType will be changed to Job in the December 2013 CU for load balancing purposes.
    http://sharepoint.nauplius.net/2013/08/update-on-incoming-email-job-lock-type-change-between-sharepoint-2010-and-2013/
    It is not recommended to run Incoming Email on more than one SharePoint 2013 server due to a synchronization issue Microsoft identified (hence the job lock type change).
    Thanks
    Davinder

    As of the December 2013 Cumulative Update, you can have more than 1 server in a SharePoint 2013 farm running the Incoming Email service as the LockJobType was changed back to None. The change is part of the Dec 2013 CU.

    I accidentally synced my mum's brand new iPad to my mac book air. A few days later I realised that my iTune library on my mac is completely gone. So is my iPhone 4s after I synced it with my mac. How do I get my old iTunes library back? I tried using icloud on my iphone but it stated that I have never back up my phone before. So I guess my iCloud data is gone too? But I have back up my mac in my harddrive using time machine. So how do I get my old itune library back? Please help! Thanks!

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • Hi .. my iPad 4 with iso 7.0.3 he is restarting himself ... How can i solve this problem please help me

    Hi .. my iPad 4 with iso 7.0.3 he is restarting himself ... How can i solve this problem please help me

    Standard troubleshooting...
    1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider.  Slide to power off.  Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
    2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    3. Remove apps from Recently Used list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Swipe up on the app preview card to remove it from the list
    - Press the home button when done.
    4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
    5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.
