How to send an e-mail to multiple sharepoint groups in a SP2013 workflow

I'm trying to create a workflow in designer 2013 that sends an e-mail to multiple users bases on a few sharepoint groups.
However if a user is member of 2 sharepoint groups he/she will appear twice in the "to field" of the e-mail.
Any suggestions on how to solve this would be much appreciated.
Thank you

Hi Jan,
According to you description, my understanding is that you want to send email to user who exist in two groups once using workflow.
If a user exist in the group, the email workflow will send the mail to the member in the group, it is reasonable.
As a workaround, I suggest you send mail to the specific user independently and then create a new group without the repeat user, then you can send mail to the new group.

Using Yahoo, how to send an e-mail to multiple receivers without having to click on each one individually

When I try to send/forward e-mail to multiple receivers, I choose the category, use ctrl, select the names and click "send e-mail to these contacts." When I return to the e-mail, the contacts are not listed.
What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
Creat the following internal table
DATA: i_reclist LIKE somlreci1 OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
Pass the values to this internal table as follows
i_reclist-receiver = '<give ur mail id>'. "SAPoffice: Name of the recipient of a document (also ext.)
i_reclist-rec_type = 'U'. "Specification of recipient type
*U = INTERNET ADDRESS,
*B = SAP USER,
*P = PRIVATE DISTRIBUTION LIST,
*O = SAPOFFICE USER,
*R = SAP user in another SAP System
*X = X400 ADDRESS
*C = SHARED DISTRIBUTION LIST
APPEND i_reclist.
Pass the internal table to the Tables parameter of 'receivers'
receivers = i_reclist

In iCloud, how to send an e-mail to a group of contacts, once I've created the group?

I have created a group from my iCloud contacts, but do not see how to send an e-mail message to this group.
The help topics don't go this far. Can anyone help?

Thanks Winnie; but why didn't that work when I typed in the whole title of the group? Just the 1st 2 letters did the trick.

How can I forward a mail to multiple mail accounts that I have in a group without having to add them one by one?

How can I forward a mail to multiple mail accounts that I have in a group without having to add them one by one?

I don't think that you can. Yahoo's basic email features do not include mail forwarding.

Hi
have a look at this
You can use Java/ABAP proxies to do this job for you..
Java Proxy >> will read the mail(with the attachments) with the help of Java APIs and send the message into XI ABAP Proxy >> for this you will have to first convert the attachment into a message and then you can proceed in the regular fashion.
Not all adapters can process attachments, I'm not sure why you are having trouble with using module processor in the mail adapter. Just check if the service pack that you are using supports this feature.
If you are on WAS 6.10 and above you can achieve this and there is an excellent weblog by Thomas Jung on this topic at
/people/thomas.jung3/blog/2004/09/09/receiving-e-mail-and-processing-it-with-abap--version-610-and-higher
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/6d967fbc-0a01-0010-4fb4-91c6d38c5816
reading Pdf Through mail easly done with Java Proxy, which will read the mail(with the attachments) with Java APIs and send the message into XI and then map with the Target ABAP proxy structure .

How to send Deadline Monitoring mails to an external mail (LOTUS NOTES)?

Hi all,
1. I know how to send Deadline Monitoring mail to an SAP INBOX. But i need to send the deadline monitoring mail to an external email address (LOTUS NOTES or any other email id).
2. If i am able to send Deadline monitoring mail to the external email address. It will send mail only once but, How to send these deadline monitoring mails for every 3 days until the approver takes some action.
Please help me...
Regards,
Gautham P

The easy solution is to set up automatic forwarding for everyone by defining the system as NOT being your e-mail system. I don't know where this setting is (the Basis people did it), but with this setting SAP will forward every user's e-mail to the e-mail address in the user record.
For repeated sending I think you have to use modelled deadlines. Send the deadline message using a normal mail sending step and loop after calculating the new deadline. (i.e. you need to store the deadline in the container and refer to the container elements in your deadline specification.) The deadline calculation can either be a separate step or you can do it as a secondary method in the mail sending step.

How do I create a group in my address book to send and e-mail to multiple contacts

can I set up a group in my contacts / address book to send the an e-mail to multiple contacts?
I have mac book pro & I-pad 2 running latest operating system.
Thanks

Yes you can by creating a group and then dragging the contacts in to it. However, since iCloud, the Edit Distribution List feature has been grayed out. Without that feature, it is not possible to specifically select a single email address for those contacts that have multiple email addresses. A major flaw that will hopefully be fixed.

How to: Send out e-mails through a 3rd party mail host?

Hi,
We would like to send out e-mail campaign from our CRM system.
But we would not like to risc being blacklisted as spammer, so we would like to send out the e-mails using a 3rd party mail host provider.
Our sales department already use our CRM system for sending out their sales related e-mails.
They use our corporate exchange server for that.
So the scenario is:
I have created a smtp node in trx scot, and liked it to our domain *company.com
This node points to our corporate mail host. All our normal users use this domain.
All our campaign e-mails from CRM should be send using another mail host as described before.
According to note 455140, I don't see that I can create a new smtp node in scot.
And link this one to our new e-mail domain *company-news.com and the external mail host.
How do I send these e-mails to a specific mail host when the sender is a specific domain e.g. company-news.com?
My Exchange server guys say that they can't redirect specific mails send from our CRM system.
They can only redirect all mails that are send from our CRM system, but then all the e-mails from our sales reps are also send through a 3rd party mail host.
Does anyone have battled with this before, and how did you solve it?
best regards
Michael Wolff Knudsen

We bought a new Exchange server, version 2007 just for CRM. This Exchange version can tunnel the e-mail to our 3rd party vendor, and they can send out the e-mails so neither one of us gets spammed.

How to send automatic "reminder mails" after certain time

Hi Experts,
There is a problem which I am not able to solve, Please help !
Requirement: 1. After the creation of a certain task, a mail should go to the user... this I have done using the Java Mail API.
*2. After 2 days if the user don perform certain task, a reminder mail should be send to him EVERYDAY after the INITIAL 2 days.*
how to achieve this in the Java mail.. I have heard of Java mail Schedulers but I am not able to find it.. If you can give me some guide or some steps or some article for this I would be very very gratefu to you.
Please treat it as urgent and give your valuable suggestions.
Thanx in advance.
Regards,
Rajat

Nope. It means that if you want to schedule something, use code which does scheduling. Like Quartz for example. Bear in mind that the "something" in this case would involve sending an e-mail, but your scheduler wouldn't care about that.

How to send an e-mail?

Hi.
I'd be very happy if someone can help me.
I'm developing a desktop application in (J2SE). Because of better debugging it would be very useful to send an "Error message" to my e-mail whenever an exception occures. How can I do that?

open a socket to a SMTP server, and send your mail message there.
a quick hack i wrote a couple of month ago looked like this:
