IS THERE A SEND MAIL COMMAND?
I was wanting to know if there is a SEND MAIL COMMAND or something similiar to a SEND MAIL COMMAND that would automatically send a hard coded email message from an ORACLE FORM when a button on that form was pushed instead of opening up MICROSOFT OUTLOOK and having the user enter an email message and then hitting the SEND BUTTON.
I know that this can be done using SMTP code in a WHEN_BUTTON PRESSED TRIGGER. This happens when the last part of the mail host name is the same as the last part of the email address. For example, the mail host name on my PC is
'ERECEMH1-BH.EREC.ARMY.MIL' and my email address hard coded in the program is '[email protected]', the message gets sent. However if the
email address hard coded in the program is '[email protected]' then the hard coded email message in the program does not get sent.
What is causing this to not happen?
Since Im a 21 year retired US Air Force veteran I've decided to help you out.... :)
If you want to send email, with attachments, from an Oracle form implement one of these two methods.
1) Heres how you send email with attachments from the database for 8i and 9i using smtp..
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/pl_sql/htdocs/Utl_Smtp_Sample.html
2) but, heres a newer/simpler utl_mail 10g method ...
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/u_mail.htm
With the first example you will have to change the mail host in the code to a SMTP server in your organazation. I have not used the second newer 10g example but have heard it is easy. If you have 10g database you should probably use it.
From your email it is not clear what you are doing currently? Are you using outlook or are you using SMTP? If you are using SMTP then how exaclty are you doing that?
Disregarding all of the above for a moment... Are you sure its not getting "sent" or is just not getting "received". The email may actually be getting sent to an incorrect address, but since you are doing it, possibly, from outlook, there is no from email address to send the bounced email message back to...
There is no forms send_mail built-in command. Gotta use one of the options above or outlook.
You can call outlook from ole2 or do this...
web.show_document('mailto:[email protected]?subject=Happy%20Birthday&body=I%20dont%20like%20green%20eggs%20and%20ham');
Using outlook to send email, or any client email software, is generally not a good idea. Its better to setup one of the options above, 1 or 2, and email from the database not the client.
And.. there's even a java mail solution...

[nQSError: 75006] Failed to send MAIL Command
Hello,
We are on AIX and Siebel Analytics 7.8.5. We are having a weird issue with ibots. Wwe have around 800 ibots and only 65 of them fail with *[nQSError: 75006] Failed to send MAIL Command* this error. These ibots use to work good. I have created some test ibots and even those fail with the same error.
Does any one have an idea..how to resolve this?
Thanks in advanceWe are using Exchange Server. We are able to send e-mails to many usres....that means the credentials are correct. If we reschedule a delivered report..it is successful.
Eventually succeeded, but encountered and resolved errors...

ODI Send Mail tool is sending thousands of mails
Hi,
In one of my ODI packages i have used ODI send mail to send the success notfication mails with error and log files attached.
It worked fine for a long time but today we have received nearly 9000 mails from this.
this package is loading data in to essbase and executing a calc script. while the package is in running mode, we killed the script from EAS as it is executing for more than double the time it do normally. Then immediately mails flow has been started. that too " success mails " . (we have two send mails- one for success and the other for failure notice).
I tried to figure out the problem. there were no changes. Except the "To" field. we gave the all the recipients emails separated by commas instead of adding a new line for each recipient. I executed a new send mail command with the same way (TO field). It executed fine.
Can any one help me to debug the error? is it caused by essbase/send mail? or any other reasons?
Thanks in advance :)Thanks for your reply..
yes it was looped. but how the success mail was kicked off ?. we killed the script in Essbase so the package should execute failure mail step. Instead it executed the success mail.
any clue on this pls ? -
How to activate "Send mail" from print preview in ME23N
In ME23N there is a "print preview"-button that shows a preview of the PO. In the preview-windows there is a Text-menu with a "Send mail"-command, but that command is not active. How can I activate this command so that it is possible to send the PO to an email-recepient?
I have configured the smtp-functionality (SCOT++) and sending PO's as email to suppliers in ME9F works fine by choosing "Send external". But still the Send mail-option is inactive in preview-mode. Any tips?
Regards,
Thor-Egilplease maintain output condition record (MN04) as "external send"
Also make sure that you have maintained the proper email ID in vendor master -

The sender information of mail command
Hi there,
Our machine is running Solaris 9 and using NIS. I sshed in as a regular user A and "su -" to root user. I typed following command as root user "mail A test ctrl^d". I switched back to regular user A and checked the email of A. I found the email with the content "test" as expected but I found the sender of the email is A NOT the root. I am wondering why I issued the mail command as root but the sender is not root but user A?
Thanks in advance!I guessing but probably because mail is using your real UID and not your effective UID. Take a look at the -r switch. You could also use the -f switch with sendmail.

Sending Mail to Local Users via the Terminal mail Command
I am having trouble sending mail to other user account via the terminal mail command. It seems to work with some accounts i.e. guest, etc, but fails with others i.e. Dennis. It will fail with no error message. Has anyone had any experience using the unix mail command locally ?
DennisI don't know the answer to this but you might try the -v option on the mail command in order to get verbose output. Perhaps a useful message would pop up.
Also, you might consider posting this message in the Unix Forum. There is a good chance that someone there can help you with this issue.

when i click on an excel or word file in 2007 the program begins to open but then an error message says There was a problem sending the command to the program.
i am using office2007 with windows7 premium home edition. i have checked file associations., all DDE settings. i have even tried this in safe mode. the same thing happens. please note once i see the error. i can then go back to the file click on
it a second time and it WILL open. AND i can open any file if i open excel and and find the file from there. i uninstalled and re-installed office 2007 from scratch. And i checked the compatibility mode (all un-checked) still the problem persisits. this is
a real PITA. anyone have any solution for this? Thanks
ken yanowHi,
Have you try to un-select the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) setting?
Click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Excel Options.
Click Advanced, and then click to clear the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)
check box in the General area.
Click OK.
If the problem cannot resolve, the Run as administrator may selected.
Go to Office default install location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12.
Right-click EXCEL.EXE > Properties >
Compatibility tab.
Under Privilege Level, uncheck Run this program as an administrator
check box.
Best regards.

Excel won't open and error message There was a problem sending the command to the programe
Hi there
I'd be grateful for your help.
I've just bought a new laptop and installed Office 2013. I used Excel 2013, did what I needed to do and saved it. This was 5 days ago.
Today, I've tried opening the file from my desktop and get the error message 'There was a problem sending the command to the program'.
And when I try to open Excel to do the DDE fix, which seems to be the best suggestion, I can't open Excel at all. I've tried to get into it from the Apps screen.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
ThanksDon't seem like this can be fixed so I went back to version 6.0.2 which works good.
I have Chrome now as my default browser and will not use fire fox until they fix it!
Chrome works great! -
Using Firefox 4 & Windows 7. Everytime I start Firefox from a shortcut to a website it comes up with the following error 'there was a problem sending the command to the program'. The requested website does load after this. with no problems.
If a shortcut is used while Firefox is already open the error does not occur.As reported in earlier replies, the annoyance disappeared after I upgraded to Roboform 7.5.6, from 7.5.4.

Word2007 in windows 7 -There was a problem sending the command to the program!
I just bought my new HP laptop with windows 7 Home premier edition, and then I installed windows office 2007 suite. It's ok if I only open the word without any existing word file. But if I open word with a word file, it says " there was a problem sending
the command to the program". I try this action under safe mode, it's no problem, I can open an existing word file. If I open the winword.exe and use menu "file-open" to open a word file, it's alright. But If I double click a word file, it shows that error.
I tried to change the registry information according to the solution on internet, but it doesn't work. I checked the compatibility mode, it says run in "windows XP sp3", and it is grey, I can't uncheck it.
Anyone got any idea to fix this problem?
Thanks a lot.Hi
Thank you for using
Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
From your description, This sounds like a problem with the file associations in Windows.. If there is any misunderstanding, please feel free to let
me know.
The first thing to check is to make sure that the file extensions are correctly associated with Word.
1.
Click Start > type or copy following command to the Search box
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\winword.exe" /unregserver
2.
You should then, immediately, use the following command:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\winword.exe" /regserver
Re-associate the Word file manually:
Please go to
Start \Control Panel\Programs\Default Programs\Set Associations.
Locate the files .doc, .docm,.docx, .dot, .dotm, check if there are associated with
Microsoft Word. If not, highlight the file and click the
Change Program button. Choose Microsoft Word from the list. If you are unable to see Microsoft Word from the list, click the
Browse button. Browse to the folder: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12, and choose
WINWORD.EXE.
Click
OK to save the settings.
Please take your time to try the suggestions and let me know the results at your earliest convenience. If anything is unclear or if there is anything
I can do for you, please feel free to let me know.
Hope that helps.
Sincerely
William Zhou CHN

I have just upgraded to Firefox 4.0 and ever since then I get this message when I try to go to either Yahoo or Gmail
"THERE WAS A PROBLEM SENDING THE COMMAND TO THE PROGRAM",
I had this problem a month or so ago so downgraded to Firefox 3.6 and the problem went away but have now been advised to upgrade which indeed I have and hey presto the error message again, please how can I fix it??OK, you seem to be running Zone Alarm as your firewall. It includes a utility which checks to see whether a site is safe or not and also adds a plugin to Firefox which is listed as '''npFFApi'''. Can you disable that and see if it makes any difference?
To get to the plugins manager, click the orange Firefox button, then click "Add-ons". In the page that opens, click the "Plugins" link on the left which will open the menu. Then find '''npFFApi '''and click the "''Disable''" button. -
