Mapping to Mail Package Content

Hi,
I'm trying to get information from an IDoc into the "Content" tag of the Mail Package structure. The format of the content should be a few values separated by semicolons and then "End Of Line" character after each line of values. Ex.
<Content>VAL1;VAL2;VAL3 "EOL" VAL4;VAL5;VAL6 "EOL" VAL7;VAL8;VAL9</Content>
The semicolons can easily be created using the concat function, but how do I get the EOL character in there so that the end result of the content attachment out of the Mail adapter becomes:
VAL1;VAL2;VAL3
VAL4;VAL5;VAL6
VAL7;VAL8;VAL9
So, in other words the result should be CSV with EOL characters.
Solutions that work will be highly rewarded!!
Thanks,
Mattias

write a simple UDF...
the code in it would be just one line...
return (""+ ((char)10) );
i am assuming you want the "new line" at the end..right ?
for new line it is "((char)10)"...for carriage return it is "((char)13)"...

Mail Adapter & Mail package - pb of content

Hi,
I want to send an email from XI to my mail server (Lotus) by using the Mail Adapter with option "Use mail package".
I have just succeed to send email with only <b>ONE line</b> because of field "content" which has an occurence 0..1.
How is it possible to have several lines?
When I try to duplicate field "content" or to change its occurence (0..Unbounded), then I don't receive an email?
<i>Note: Unfortunatelly, I don't know XSL / XSLT mapping.</i>

If you want to have several lines, you have to put EOL within the one "content" tag like this:
<ns:Mail xmlns:ns="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
<Subject>Hello</Subject>
<From>[email protected]</From>
<To>[email protected]</To>
<Content>row1
row2
row3
row4</Content>
</ns:Mail>
Sorry, I can only give you an XSLT example to do this. Assume your original message payload is:
<root>
<text>row1</text>
<text>row2</text>
<text>row3</text>
<text>row4</text>
</root>
you can use following XSLT file, which you attach directly to the Mail Adapter (like described in another thread):
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" />
<xsl:template match="*">
    <ns:Mail xmlns:ns="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
      <Subject>Hello</Subject>
      <From>[email protected]</From>
      <To>[email protected]</To>
      <Content><xsl:apply-templates/></Content>
    </ns:Mail>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text">
    <xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Filter emails based on "From" of mail package

My sender mail adapter is picking up all emails from an email account and processing the file attachment - This is working fine.
The problem is that it processes everything sent to this email account even junk mails - resulting in XI alerts. How can I ignore the junk emails and only process emails sent from a certain source???
I see that we have "use mail package" and when I check this I get two payloads when I look in the monitor:
PAYLOAD 1: MailMessage:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>

Can I pick out <From>"Wood, Lynn" email address removed</From>
To check it is the correct FROM - ie. only process emails from a certain sender????
Is this possible??? And how do I do it???
I already use payloadSwapBean and messageTransformBean to swap the attachment for payload and to format the file.
Please do not send me endless links to anything email related !

Yes this is pretty much what I thought to do - my problem is what do I check in the UDF. I need to get the "From" field into the header. I see that you can do it if you check "Use Adapter Specific Message Attributes" and "Variable Transport Binding" then you have available in the header SHeaderFROM which you can then get in the mapping. But we are on SP19 and we do not have "Variable Transport Binding" on the Sender Mail adapter - nor an advanced tab page - only an advanced mode check box and additional parameters.
So not sure how I can get the "From" field into mapping??? Any ideas anyone?

Dynamic attachment name with receiver mail adapter and use mail package

We need to send mapped XML payload as attachment (with dynamic name) to a recepient (recepient email id is part of input xml payload, but not part of the mapped XML payload).
I could probably do this using the adapter module (as per the following link),
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/Adapter%20Module%20PI%207.0%20Set%20Attachment%20Name?bc=true
I would like to explore if this would be feasible using Mail package and XI payload.I already have a Java mapping that is converting the input XML to required Output format. If I am using Mail package (XI Payload), how do I go about sending this Output XML from java mapping as attachment to email id available in the input payload?

Hi,
1) XML payload as attachment (with dynamic name)
2) recipient (recipient email id is part of input xml payload, but not part of the mapped XML payload)
These two is possible by using Mail Package. You have a standard xsd for mail package which you can download from the SAP Note 748024.
The xml created in you java mapping which will be your attachment should be put into the <content> tag of the mail package xml structure. and the file name can be set in the <Content_Type> tag.
<?xml version="1.0"; encoding="UTF-8"?>
<p2:Mail xmlns:p2="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
<Subject>My Invoice</Subject>
<From>from email address<;/From>
<To>to email address</To>
<Content_Type>text/plain;name="MyFile.csv";</Content_Type> --> file name here
<Content>123;A49;aaa</Content> -> attachment xml here
</p2:Mail>
And you have to select MailPackage in the receiver mail adapter.

Couldn't find delivery channel when using Mail-Package

Hi,
I use the mail receiver adapter. If I configure the mail header data (sender, receiver, subject) in the adapter configuration everything works fine. But now I need a dynamic subject, so I thought of using "mail package". But now I get an error "Couldn't find receiver channel for message..."
The mail package looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<ns1:Mail xmlns:ns1="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
<Subject>[email protected]</Subject>
<From>[email protected]</From>
<To>[email protected]</To>
<Content_Type>text/xml</Content_Type>
<Content>This is my mail content</Content>
</ns1:Mail>
Has anyone an idea - thanks a lot - werner

Hi Werner,
some time ago I posted a weblogs
which describes such a configuration
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/07/mail-adapter-xi--how-to-implement-dynamic-mail-address
have a look at it
BTW
>>>>now I need a dynamic subject
if you have sp14 or above then there's much
easier method with adapter identifiers
(then you can set the subject in message mapping )

Issue with mail package - namespace

Hi All
I am trying to use mail package in my receiver mail adapter.
The mandatory elements for using mail package are:
<ns:Mail xmlns:ns="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
<Subject>Hello</Subject>
<From>sender email</From>
<To>receiveremail</To>
<Content>This is a mail</Content>
</ns:Mail>
How can i get the above specified namespace? How can i override my existing namespace with this new one?
As i am using message mapping, I spicified message type's 'XML Namespace' field as "http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30".
But even this doesnt help.
Thanks
Chandra

I am also trying to use the namespace. All seems to be working but I do not get the e-mail message sent to me. This what shows in my Technical routing payload. (FYI had to replace the "at" sign with "-" for this posting due to the limits for the forum software.)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns:Mail xmlns:ns="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
<subject>824 test</subject>
<from>edi-na.modine.com</from>
<to>s.m.posnanski-na.modine.com</to>
<reply_to>edi_support-na.modine.com</reply_to>
<content_Type>text/plain</content_Type>
<content>Hello</content>
</ns:Mail>
I am usingXSL as an attachment and have the floowing defined in Module.
Processing Sequence
localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean
   CHAN
localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean
email
Module Configuration.
CHAN      Transform.ContentDisposition      attachment.filename="file.html"
CHAN      Transform.ContentType      text/html;charset=utf-8
This works fine when not using "Mail Package". I want to use mail package to be able to have a dynamic subject line for the e-mail.
Thanks.

Receiver Mail adapter - mail package - mail not received

Hi guys!
I'm using receiver mail adapter and when I want to use Mail Package (subject is assign dinamically based on mapping) I do not receive the e-mail. When I switch to not using Mail Package, the mail is sent correctly..
In RWB everything seems to be ok, it says mail sent successfully... just not to my outlook
Any ideas, what could be wrong?
Thanx a lot!
Olian

Hi Stefan,
thank you 4 reply.. I checked it. To be sure - I copied the content of the To tag and put it into my Outlook and sent an e-mail... It has arrived
I can't understand this..
Which fields are neccessary to fill? Is from, to and content enough? I think it should be...
Thank you!

**I changed the receiver mail adapter to not use Mail package and I receive an email without errors with the Content as mentioned above. **

Hi Teresa,
I think the problem is that you are using multiple "Content" tags. Have you tried to use only one?, you can concatenate all your text.
Check the page 3 of this document to know how introduce new-line character http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d0964d7c-e66e-2910-24bb-ac535e4a5992?overridelayout=t…

How to install XI mail package?

Hi,
I wanna use the mail package I can download from SAP-Note 748024.
I already read different HowTos (e.g. How To use the mail adapter of the Xi 3.0 J2EE Adapter Engine,...) but I cannot find an information about how to install the XSD-File?
Do I have to install it?
In my mail sender communication channel I use mail package and I can see in message monitoring, that the adapter creates a xml structure with "Subject, from, to, content,..." - fine!
But now I have to develop a message mapping and I need the source xml datatype (this mail package).
Tx for your help.
Regards
Wolfgang

Hi,
Download the mail apckage as given in the note.
Save it as an .XSD file and then import this as an Extrenal Definition in your Integration Repository. Use this as your message Type in the mapping and message interfaces.
You can also download it from this link,
https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/012006153200000361852004E/ximail30_xsd.txt
This will be your Source Message Type in the case of Sender Mail adapter and the Target message type for receiver mail adapters

Using mail package in file to mail scenario

For sending the mail in proper email format ,
we have to check the USE MAIL PACKAGE option.
the corresponding TO, FROM ,SUBJECT and CONTENT
need to be handled in mapping..
Can anyone tell me which field in the mapping will match the req fields ????

<ns:Mail xmlns:ns="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
<Subject>Hello</Subject>
<From>[email protected]</From>
<To>[email protected]</To>
<Content>row1
row2
row3
row4</Content>
</ns:Mail>
You can use UDF example to do this. Assume your original message payload is:
<root>
<text>row1</text>
<text>row2</text>
<text>row3</text>
<text>row4</text>
</root>
Create a advanced user defined function like this:
public void AddText(String[] a, ResultList result, Container container){
codeString b = "";
for (int j=0;j<a.length;j++)
b = b + a[j] + "\n";
result.addValue(b);[/code]
Now you connect
text -> addText -> Content

Receiver Mail Adapter, Mail Package with Payload as Attachment

Hi Everyone,
I have spent the better part of the day today searching and testing all of the different combinations that I could think of to solve this problem, so please don't just do an SDN search for me and cut/paste in the links as there are too many contradictive answers piling up over the last year.
I am trying to use a Receiver mail adapter to send some data using the mail package, and I want to have the <content> tag be in an attachment. I am using mail package to dynamically set the mail address, but to also try and turn my data into a csv file that the recipient can open in Excel.
My mail package sets the following values:
<Content_Type>text/plain</Content_Type>
<Content_Disposition>attachment</Content_Disposition>
<Content>Sample Text</Content>
This blog is basically what I am trying to do:
<a href="/people/community.user/blog/2006/09/08/email-report-as-attachment-excelword:///people/community.user/blog/2006/09/08/email-report-as-attachment-excelword
But no where in here is he setting ContentDisposition, and he is (potentially) not using the MessageTransformBean module.
It is unclear if I need to use the MessageTransformBean to make this work?
Questions:
1) Do I need to use the MessageTransformBean?
2) Do I need to set the ContentDisposition in the mail package?
3) Does Service Pack matter with these settings? We are on SP15 upgrading to SP18 very soon.
Thanks
Peter

Hi Peter,
try:
<Content_Type>text/plain;name="file.csv"</Content_Type>
<Content_Disposition>attachment;filename="file.csv"</Content_Disposition>
<Content>Sample Text</Content>

Stefan

PayloadZIPBean with Mail Package... is it possible?

Hi,
In proxy to file scenario, I send mails from PI with data received from proxy as attachment. I also need to zip the attachment.
I will be getting the email address dynamically, hence I should use Mail Package with 'Keep Attachments' option. Now the problem is if I use mail package since the <content> tag data is taken as mail attachment, can I use PayloadZipBean in receiver mail adapter to zip the attachemnt?
I tried using the follwoing adapter module in receiver mail mail adapter but ended with an error.
Module Name: AF_Modules/PayloadZipBean                             Module Key: zip

Sender Mail Adapter Content Conversion

Hi All,
     I just want to know if we can send a flat file(Rather Than the XML) with content conversion using Mail Adapter. If yes then what are all the possible ways for this.
I have tried but i am sucessful in sending the complete payload as a XML file, but i want the file with the content conversion, so that this should be able to picked by the third party systems.
Will be oblidge if any supported blog or pdf is provided for the same.
Thanks in Advance.
Jay

Hi,
Now for the negative items, i want to send them back to business as flat file format
using the mail adapter as attachment. This will help them to process the file as for there
requirement.
Since you need to send an email message you have to use the format mentioned here: (S-UserID required)
https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/012006153200000361852004E/ximail30_xsd.txt
Save this file as an XSD in you local system and upload it as an External Definition in your XI server.
Develop MI based on this External Definition (IN, ASYNC)
Create an Interface Mapping with Source as the file containing Negative items and target as the above developed MI
Now you need to develop an XSLT mapping (can use StylusStudio to do it) between the source and target Message Types
This XSLT mapping has to be designed in such a way that it extracts the payload out of the Negative Items message and maps it to the target (Content) field....you need to use CDATA element of XSLT here.
In this mapping itself you can define to what email-id you want to send the message.....
Everything happens on the XI --> Business service side...so it is not the sender channel but is the receiver channel:)
Your XSLT mapping will look something like:
<Mail>
     <Content>
          XSLT CODE
     </Content>
</Mail>
where Mail and Content are the tags in the email message format...the External definition one.....
If you are new to XSLT then refer to my answer in this thread...
