OWB - -email templates - possible to output host name?

Hi,
We have amnay porcess flows which use e-mail templates.
However this doen not show the host where th e-mail originated from.
Can cause confusion where same process flwos run on dev/test and production
Is it possible for the host name to be output in the e-mail body.
If so, how best.
Ways I can think of doing it have diff e-mail addresses in the template e-mail e.g ltest/dev/prod or call procedure to return host name assign this to variable and output this in message body
Thanks

IMAP does not support Push. There is no way around this. IF your provider supports Exchange Active Sync, you can set it up as an Exchange account, which does support push.

Mail server config inconsistent when host name differs from domain name

Hi,
I've installed Leopard server on host server.example.com but want to server email for example.com the host name for incoming mail should be mx01.example.com. DNS is setup properly resolving server.example.com and mx01.example.com (both forward and reverse, mx01 having a separate IP) and mx01.example.com is set as MX for example.com. Both IPs are routed to the internal server by the firewall.
In Server Admin, server.example.com is set as computer name (also resolved to the proper internal IP by our internal DNS), and in mail settings -> General, domain name is set to example.com and host name to mx01.example.com (so that the mail server identifies itself properly when connected on port 25).
Normal mail traffic works perfectly: Users can send and receive mail from/to addresses like <user_shortname>@example.com. I've got problems with mailing lists, though:
First, group based mailing lists (for groups created in Workgroup Manager) have the wrong addresses: <group_shortname>@server.example.com. Those addresses are linked when you view the croup in Directory.app. You can send mails to eg [email protected] when connecting to the server via telnet on port 25, but get an error email ([email protected]>: mail for server.example.com loops back to myself, Reporting-MTA: mx01.example.com) back.
Second, mailman based mailing lists also have the wrong addresses: <listname>@server.example.com and at the bottom of the mails received from the lists, there are also links to the lists web page with the url mx01.example.com instead of the host's name server.example.com.
mx01 should only be used by incoming SMTP, but if this isn't possible, I could revert to using server.example.com for the MX record as well. But the email addresses should definitely use the domain name and not the full server name as domain part. This is a typical email server setup and I can't understand why leopard server handles this differently. Does anyone have a workaround for this or could tell me how to setup an email system properly?
Thanks a lot in advance!!
Cheers, Thomas

Well, you pointed me into the right direction: Changing the mail server's host name helped a bit. I just dumped the name mx01.example.org. The host is called server.example.org and in mail settings, the domain name is set to example.org while the host name is set to server.example.com. The MX record will have to point to server.example.org, then.
The server now accepts emails to group based mailing lists à la <group_shortname>@example.org. In Directory.app, the link the the group's mailing list still opens a new Mail to <group_shortname>@server.example.org, though.
For mailman based mailing lists, the link to the list's listinfo page in the bottom of emails received from the list is now correctly pointing to server.example.org. The list's address shown there still is <list_name>@server.example.org.

How can I get the host name from Email address?

hi
When I using socket to develope an email-sending servlet,I don't know how to get the host name from emial address.can you help me,thanks

Stripping off the user name will give you the domain of from field in the message. This is not the same as the host. Take a look at:
http://www.stopspam.org/email/headers/headers.html
Theres a pretty good discussion about email headers and how to use the information. You probably want to check the information here against the RFC.

Error:
unknown smtp host: hostname

and the one included in the code blow.You have written "hostname" in the code below. Since "hostname" is certainly NOT a valid SMTP host name,
that's why you get the error: unknown smtp host: hostname.
What did you expect? You must provide a valid SMTP host name, NOT "hostname". You see the difference right?
Try with your ISP (Internet Service Provider) SMTP host name.
It should be something like: stmp.somename.com.
That's the one you must set in your email client (Outlook, Thunderbird, Eudora, Lotus Notes, whatever) to send your emails.
Next time please paste your code between [code] tags with the help of the code button just above the edit message area.

Getting the host name in the email subject line

I am running SCOM 2012. Is there a way to have the host name of the server in the Subject line of an email?

As alerts dont always have a servername included. ie Alerts usually have the name of the server or source included in Source or Path you might want to include both in the subject.
Here is what we use but you can add the lines found in the body to the subject:
Source: $Data[Default='Not Present']/Context/DataItem/ManagedEntityDisplayName$
Path: $Data[Default='Not Present']/Context/DataItem/ManagedEntityPath$
Cheers,
Martin

OracleVM Manager template 2.2.0 trying change the host name

Hi,
I have installed the OracleVM Manager 2.2.0 template
into an OraclVM Server 2.2.1.
Reading the OracleVM Manager 2.2.0 install
instructions "Readme_for_Media_Pack_B59146-01.txt" and doing
the installation in the interview area, I am asked
to provide the fully qualified domain name as the
name of the OracleVM Manager.
Therefore, I provided something like this.
ovmmanager.mydomain.mytopdomain
Later, when I was in the OracleMV Manager,
I noticed the following.
Correct information was written in my /etc/hosts file.
192.168.1.160 ovmmanager.mydomain.mytopdomain ovmmanager
The case seems however, that unusual information
was written to the /etc/sysconfig/network file.
HOSTNAME=ovmmanager.mydomain.mytopdomain
When I type "uname -a", the results are shown.
ovmmanager.mydomain.mytopdomain
I say, "unusual", because most people prefer a single
name "ovmmanger" to be the host name.
I have tried to permanently change the host name of the computer by
changing the contents of the /etc/sysconfig/network file to the following.
HOSTNAME=ovmmanager
Next, at the command line I would type the following.
hostname ovmmanger
When I type "uname -a", the results are shown.
ovmmanager
However, every time I do an 'xm shutdown' to the
OracleVM Manger (the ovmmanger), and then later do an
'xm create vm.cfg' to start the ovmmanger,
when I type a "uname -a", the results are shown.
ovmmanager.mydomain.mytopdomain
When I look at the contents of the /etc/sysconfig/network file
the contents are back to the original contents.
HOSTNAME=ovmmanager.mydomain.mytopdomain
instead of my preferred contents
HOSTNAME=ovmmanager
My first question is the following.
By design, does the OracleVM Manager 2.2.0 template
supposed to have a host name to be a
fully qualified domain name?
ovmmanger.mydomain.mytopdomain.
My second question is the following.
If the situation is satisfactory to have just
ovmmanger
as my host name, then how do I prevent the host name renaming
process to reoccur every time I do an 'xm create vm.cfg' to start
the OracleMV Manager?
Thank you
AIM

First Question: No, it does not have to be a full qualified hostname. As long as the hostname is resolved in your network short qualified is fine.
Second Question: You don't have to do anything. In OVM Template design the configuration tool is just called the first time your template is started. All succeeding startups will not go through the configuration again. (There is however an option to reenable/reset the VM that the configuration is called again).

Dont understand what i should put down for host name for creating an email account?

Dont understand incoming and outcoming server. dont know what to put for host name.
can someone help?

Do you have your email account set up on your computer e.g. on Outlook on a PC or Mail on a Mac ? If you have then you should be able to sync the settings from that to your iPad via the Info tab when connected to your computer's iTunes. Or you could just look at the settings for the account on your computer's email program and copy them over to the iPad manually.
The incoming and outgoing server names are the servers that your email provider uses for your account to recieve (incoming) and send (outgoing) emails. A lot of accounts should be covered by the options that are listed on the 'Add Account' screen - for my Yahoo based accounts I just chose Yahoo! and the settings were set for me. If you have an account that isn't covered by those types then you could try logging into your account via a browser and see if they have any help for what settings you need to use. Different account providers have different settings, so if your can't find anything on your provider's site if you say on here who your provider is there might be somebody else here who has the same provider and can tell you what settings to use.

I have an email account through yahoo. I am having trouble setting it upon my iPhone and can't receive or send emails!!!! I contacted Rogers and they said I need to find out the host name of the incoming server, in other words yahoos host name. Help!!

Yahoo's servers are notoriously unreliable. Use the "Yahoo" account type when setting it up. If it doesn't work, and you are positive the credentials are correct, wait a while and try again.
While you're waiting, set up a free gmail or iCloud email account.

Trying to add my thunderbird work email account to my new iphone, how do I find my "incoming mail server" and "outgoing mail server" host names?

Got a new Iphone 6 and I need to add my work thunderbird email account onto the phone. It is asking me for the host name of my incoming and outgoing mail server and I have no idea what this means- please help!

First off there is no such thing as a Thunderbird email account. Email providers issue email accounts and Thunderbird is email client software and not a provider.
You can look at the server settings in Thunderbird to see the settings it is using or you could get a list from your provider.
In Thunderbird go to the menu bar and select Tools-Account Settings-Server Settings to see the Inbound settings and Tools-Server Settings-Outbging Server(SMTP) for Outbound settings.
No menu bar with Tools showing? Press the alt key.

Are Wildcards possible for host name in "no proxy for" setting?

Our LAN requires a proxy for internet access. I need to bypass proxy for certain host names, as the proxy blocks many ports.
Things work if I enter the entire host name. But there are many, so I wish to use wildcards in the host name.
That does not seem to work.

There is no solution for host names and wild cards as far as I know. That is why I showed how to do this with the IP.
Does it work if you only specify the top level domain if you want to include other domains with the same postfix?

Email templates using data from iWork Numbers spreadsheet

As a photographer, when I get a call from a client to book a shoot, my first step is to open my bookings spreadsheet in Apple's Numbers and input the client's info into pre-determined columns: name, phone number, job date, job scheduled arrival time, job address, job city, travel distance, details regarding the shoot, and then I have a list of columns that specify costs (cost for work, taxes, travel, etc--automatically calculated via functions in spreadsheet).
Immediately after I insert this information into the bookings spreadsheet, I open another file (a text file)--a text template I created to confirm bookings--and fill in the blanks using the information from the spreadsheet. Once that info has been filled out, I copy and paste the entire text file into an an email and email it to the client for his confirmation/records. The email template text (txt) file I use is included below.
Question: Is it possible to create a script that will read the specified row in my Numbers booking spreadsheet (ie, the row where I input the information in the spreadsheet) and have the information inserted into the separate text confirmation template (apple pages or text or email?) at specified areas within the text? If so, can someone help me make something like this? Here's the template I use:

Let's begin with your first question:
I've tried to change the "Template.txt" file into an rtf so that I can apply bolding and underlining to certain sections (ie, bolding to the entries like client_name, job_date, etc... and underlining to the "Steps"), and I changed the script from Template.txt to Template.rtf to reflect this change... but when I run a script I get a bug... is there any way to use an rtf file in place of the txt?
The following script should work with an RTF file, provided you don't mind using [GUI Scripting|http://www.macosxautomation.com/applescript/uiscripting/index.html] (in blue below). Before running the script, you will have to enable the Accessibility Frameworks by clicking the checkbox labeled "Enable access for assistive devices" in the Universal Access System Preference pane.

The host name of macmini-c42c030d62c6.local has changed to macmini-c42c030d62c6.local

I have received many emails saying: "The host name of macmini-c42c030d62c6.local has changed to macmini-c42c030d62c6.local. Some services may not work correctly until they have been updated to use the new configuration. If I click on macmini-c42c030dd62c6.local I have 2 options: connect and copy. I click on connect and it shows connecting to the sewrver: Connecting to afp://macmini-c42c030dd62c6.local...." then it shows "it had been a problem to connect to the server macmini-c42c030dd62c6.local (it is possible the server doesn't exist or it is not available in this moment. Check the name of the server or IP Address, net connection and try again

This question is outside my experience and I assume that it has nothing to do with the subject of this forum, creating podcasts. May I suggest you ask it in the OSX Server forum if that seems to be appropriate (even if it is to do with Podcast Producer I still have to refer you there).
