MAIL sender to R/3 scenario

Dear All,
we have a requirement to send EDI file to R/3 system using MAIL adapter.
Here we receive EDI file as an attachment to the mail server and the same need to be converted by Seeburger mapping so that it can be transformed to XML format.
Is it possible to use the seeburger mapping (See_E2X_ORDERS_UN_D96A) in mail adapter to convert the EDI file to XML?
Please let me know your inputs.
Thanks a lot.
Regards
Harry

Hi Harry,
I dont think its possible to convert mail attachment edi message to R/3,i dint understand why are you using Mail adapter attachment for EDI message,if you are getting these message from partner direclty better to store in mail server or any other eaternal location,from there we can pick up the message we can conevert .this is easy way to achieve .
But using mail adpater i feel its not possible.
Regards,
Raj

 Some times ,html files also coming along with that .txt files. That time my Mail adapter fails to read the .txt file.
 I am using PayLoadSwap Bean and MessageTransformBean to swap and send the attachment as payload .
 Michal as told to write the Adapter module to skip the files .But i am not ware of the adapter moduel . If any blogs is there for this kind of scenarios please give me the link.
 Otherwise , please tell me how to write adapter module for Mail Sender Adapter?

Dude, netiquette. Messages like "i need this now! Do it!" are really offensive and no one here is being payed to answer anyone's questions. We're here because we like to contribute to the community.
Anyway, in your case, just perform some search on how you could filter the files that are attached to the message. The sample module is just an example, you'll have to implement your own. Tips would be to query the filename of the attachments (or maybe content type) and for the ones which are not text, remove them.

Mail Sender adapter issue in PO7.4

Hello Experts,
We are migrating from PI7.0 to PO7.4, where in we are struck up with an issue of Mail Sender Interface.
Here we have a scenario of Mail to Proxy where we are processing attachment(CSV file). But here when I we run the interface mail body is being processed not the attachment. Also could nt see the Payload as when I click on the Attachment payload a pop up is coming and closing automatically.
Can someone please suggest where it went wrong as this is working in existing PI7.0 version.
Thanks.
VR

Hi VR
Have you tried swapping by Payload name?
Please try it out with the following configuration, and remove any extra lines - there are duplicate key names and values in your configuration.
You should be able to see the successfully swap by payload name in the audit log as shown below.

Variable Transport Parameters in Mail Sender

Did anyone ever successfully use the "Variable Header XHeaderName1" in the mail sender adapter (IMAP4)?
We have two mail sender channels which require a slightly different mapping. My idea was to define a value for the field "Variable Header XHeaderName1" and evaluate that in the mapping. But the value is not passed into the SOAP header, I can configure what I want. I turned on "Adapter spec.attributes" and "Variable Transport...".
So I cannot access the field value in the mapping.
Now I evaluate the dynamic configuration field "SUser", that works, but that's only a workaround.
So either this is a bug in the system (XI 3.0 SP 21) or the documentation is wrong.
We are using an attachment, is that the problem ? "Use Mail package" off/on does not change anything.
Any ideas ? No general links to the documentation please.

I think the DynamicConfigurationBean would help in this scenario.
You can assign a constant value in sender channel and use that constant for the determination of the mapping.

Mail sender adapter POP server not configured for URL access

Hi Experts,
I have a Mail --> PI --> R/3 scenario and I am configuring the Mail sender adapter for POP3. The issue is that the POP server is not configured to be accessed via a URL and hence the URL pop://hostname/ is causing the following error at runtime:
_1. When I use pop://Fully qualified host name/
_Error: exception caught during processing mail message; java.net.UnknownHostException
_2. When I use pop://IP address of host/
_Error: exception caught during processing mail message; java.net.SocketException: Connection timed out:could be due to invalid address
I am able to ping the POP3 server from the PI server using both the FQDN and IP address.
Can someone please help.
Thanks,

Dynamic Configuration of Mail-Sender does not work

Hi,
we use XI 3.0 SPS 19.
In my szenario I have a mail sender and I have receiver determination with conditions depending on the mail subject.
In the condition editor, I selected the context object "SHeaderSUBJECT" to build my condition.
In the mail communication channel I turned on the Checkbox "adapter specific message attributes".
But the condition doesn't work!!!
I wrote a small UDF to get the dynamic configuration of my mail sender-message - but it's NULL.
If I change my scenario from Mail-Sender to a file-sender, everything works fine (I can select the filename, etc.).
Is there a problem with dynamic configuration of a mail sender?
Thx all for your help!

Wolfgang Hummel

Check also "Variable Transport Binding".
You see in the SXMB_MONI whether the ASMA is available or not.

Mail Sender to Abap Proxy Receiver with Attachements

Hi All,
Scenario: I need to create a ticket in Solman from a mail. I intend to do the scenario as Mail sender to Abap Proxy receiver asynchronous.
I have configured my sender mail adapter and am able to get the mails in XI. The attachements also appear in Inbound payload as MailAttachement-1, MailAttachement-2 etc. I have checked use mail packege and keep attachements in sender adapter.
Transport Protocol: IMAP4
Message Protocol: XIPAYLOAD
Queries:
1. My Inbound Data Type is the mail Package -- ximail30_xsd. Here in sxmb_moni I can see the mail attributes like from, to and the mail body in content. But How can I read the attachements in my message mapping.
2. How can I pass these attachements to Abap Proxy ( I do not need to alter attachments only pass to proxy ). These attachements have to be attached to the Solman ticket in SOLMAN server.
Appreciate your kind response to my above queries.
Thanks.

Mail Sender Adapter - Reading multipel attachments

Hi,
I have a scenario like reading mutiple attachment files from a mail server. Based on the attachment type, i have to call RFC or File adapter. I am able to read a single attached file from mail, but could not able to read multiple files. If any one has implemented such a scenario, please let me know.
I have another question , is it possible to read the name of the attached file dynamically. i saw lot of examples and in forums all are telling about hardcode the attched file name in the parameter key value properties under Module tab. Without hardcode the file name , how to read the attached file from mail.
I appreceate the help.

Mail Sender Adapter - read from public folder.

Hello Experts.
I have a scenario, where I need to read an incoming mail from a public folder, and after mapping the attachment (which is a csv) I need to put the result as a file in a shared folder.
right now the problem is, I am not sure how to access the public folder.
should I use one of the exchange users, and try to access the public folder?
what should I be writing in the URL parameter in the mail sender adapter ? (imap://server/???/public folder ?)
Also - in case I will want to switch the location of the mail to a private foler inside of the user mailbox - what is the URL parameter in that case?
Anyone ever did something like this and can help?
Thanks,
Imanuel Rahamim.

Hi Imanuel,
do u mean u want to pick the mail which contains an attachement from a specified folder instead of inbox?
u can configure the URL like imap://host:port/path/PublicFolder.
after PI received the mail. we can use PayloadSwapBean to get the attachement payload and do following message mapping.
ur question: Also - in case I will want to switch the location of the mail to a private foler inside of the user mailbox - what is the URL parameter in that case?
do u mean u want to pick the mail from a specified mail account? if like this, create an user for the interface only. then configure the UserName/Password in the channel.

Kevin Song

Help requierd on mail sender adapter

i m workin on a scenario to send email from a mail server inbox to XI.i need to configure mail sender adapter....need step by step help on that.
regards,
latika.

hi latika,
the Message Structure to be defined depends on the message protocol that you are trying to use.
I would recommend using XIPAYLOAD. From the help link,
XIPAYLOAD
In this mode, the content of the e-mail is put in the payload of the XI message. If you do not set the Use Mail Package indicator, the information about the sender (From), receiver (To), and subject of the e-mail is lost.
If you have selected XIPAYLOAD as the message protocol, you must make the following additional specifications under Mail Attributes:
If you want to put the entire e-mail message including the header information (From, To, Subject) in the payload, set the Use Mail Package indicator. See the example below. The header information is included in an XML mail package format.

Source Structure
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns:Mail xmlns:ns="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
<Subject>Subject</Subject>
<From>[email protected]</From>
<To>[email protected]</To>
<Reply_To />
<Content_Type>text/plain</Content_Type>
<Content>
This is the content.

Best Effort (BE) Quality Service in JDBC & Mail Sender Adapter

Hi Experts,
I have confusion for Mail & JDBC Sender adapters.
Why BE QoS is provided in the sender JDBC & Mail Adapters. Can anybody explain me with how will be Synchronous JDBC or Mail scenario.
Thanks in advance.

Use of BE in JDBC can be seen here

Picking mails from a particular sender using mail sender adapter

Hi Everyone,
I want to create a scenario in which i want to pick mails from a particular sender and send it to XI.
I don't want all the unread mails to be sent to XI but only those belonging from a particular sender.
How should i configure the mail sender adapter to achieve the same.
Thanks and Regards
Rahul Nawale

Hi,
there are two ways to do that:
not standard:
create a java proxy which will check your maibox for mails
from only one particular sender and then send messages
to the xi
more standard:
create a new accound and redirect your mails from a particular sender from the main mailbox to this new one
and poll from this new one only...
this way you'll be able to use atandard mail adapter
with no changes at all

Mails deleted when using Mail Sender Adapter

Hello All,
I have a Mail to XI to File scenario.
Transport Protocol: POP3
Message Protocol: XIPAYLOAD
The mail is getting converted to a xml file in the folder specified in File Adapter, but it gets deleted directly , I dont recieve any mail in my Inbox.
I have used POP3 so there is no checkbox where i have specified to delete the mails after reading.
Also another strange thing is when i try to send a mail to myself , this mail is not converted to XML and it comes to my Inbox.
Any clues why such a strange thing happens!
Thanks
Meghana

Yes dear..
I will explain you the process behind it.See first the mail comes into the mail Box..for that time period you will be able to see it.Now when it gets deleted,this is time when XI has picked up your mail and processed it to give you the file.Exactly after few seconds when you refresh it (when required) you can see the xml in your target directory.
Get back if you have more doubts.
Thanks

Mail sender channel

Hi,
we have a problem configuring the mail sender channel. We want to realize a mail->xi->file scenario. No messages arrive at the xi server (sxmb_moni). In the adapter monitoring the sender adapter seems to be fine (green led, text: running).
The mail address is a web.de address. How should the URL in the adapter look like? We tried imap://imap.web.de, imap://imap.web.de/username, but no messages arrived.
Btw we read in an other topic, that there exists a monitor (url: http://xihost:port/mdt/amtServlet). The server replies a 404 (not found) http error. How can we get this monitor?
Thanks

Thanks for your answer,
yes, web.de does allow imap, I get my mails with thunderbird with the imap protocol. I tried also an other mail server, without success.
I describe my scenario, perhaps there is an error in my configuration:
In the Integration Directory I have imported the following xsd file
<xs:schema targetNamespace="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30"
xmlns:xi="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30"

I have imported the xsd file in myNamespace into External Definition. Then I made a Messege Interface (outbound asynchronous)out of the imported data type (name--> MailReceiver).
In the configuration of the mail sender channel I have following settings:
message-protocol: XIPAYLOAD
Use mail package: True
Content Encoding: base64
Keep attachment: False
Interface Namespce: myNamespace
Interface Name: MailReceiver
Quality of service: Best effort
In my scenario I have made a sender agreement which uses the mail sender adapter, interface and namespace of the sender are myNamespace an MailReceiver.
hope anybody can help me...
