Send Email from approval task form

In my reusable workflow, I have added an approval action. Everything works perfectly. What I want is - When approver comes to approval form, he should be able to send notification email to the initiator (From that form) that he has started working on that document.
What I have tried - I have added a button clicking on which will submit the form to initiator. 
But it fails. possible reason - when I create a data connection in workflow's infopath form to submit form as email, I am getting following warning
"Domain trust form templates cannot be sent as email attachments. to fix this problem, modify the form option to change the security level of form template to restricted".
I also tried to update status field and wait for it to changes in workflow and send an email from sp designer workflow. it didn't work.
Please help or suggest any other possible way to achieve this functionality (Send Email from approval task form to initiator).

Hi mry,
I could reproduce on my SharePoint 2013 on-premise based on your another
post.
Based on the the following article, SharePoint workflow cannot use the InfoPath form in restricted mode which doesn't allow the data connection, but as your image warning message shows sending InfoPath form as mail attachments will need restricted level.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ee526352.aspx
You can consider to send a mail to initiator in "Whe a Task Completes" step when you click button approved/rejected, and construct the current task form link format as follow,

  • Problem sending emails from my website form

    I have a website hosted on my iMac (www.isinglive.co.uk). I have set up a registration form page. When a user completes the registration the php script should send a confirmation email to the registrant and to admin. Unfortunately these emails are not delivered. For most of them I can find no trace.
    For two (so far) I have received emails from [email protected] stating:
    This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
    A message that you sent has not yet been delivered to one or more of its
    recipients after more than 24 hours on the queue on smtp4.global.net.uk.
    The message identifier is: 1JFuSS-0008bI-WB
    The subject of the message is: Test
    The date of the message is: Fri, 18 Jan 2008 16:52:44 +0000
    Delay reason: host lookup did not complete
    I do not understand what that means.
    My httpd access_log shows:
    192.168.1.2 - - [19/Jan/2008:17:52:56 +0000] "POST /isinglive/slpw/emailuser.php HTTP/1.1" 200 14630

    I assume this means that the mails have been sent because there are no httpd error_logs
    However I also checked the system_log and an extract shows:

    I would be grateful for some help/guidance.

    you need to use a real email server on a network that allows mail to be relayed. For example instead of trying to send through local mail make an email address with your ISP account and then use that to send....
    For example i use roadrunner so i might set up an account with my ISP called "webserver" so then i could send using that account. using phpMailer it might look like this:
    <pre>
    $body = 'Hello, this is a message from my webserver.';
    $mailer = new phpMailer();
    $mailer->IsSMTP = true;
    $mailer->SetUsername('webserver');
    $mailer->SetPassword('my password');
    $mailer->SetHost('smtp-server.region.rr.com');
    $mailer->AddAddress('[email protected]');
    $mailer->SetSubject('Form Mail For You!');
    $mailer->SetBody($body);
    $mailer->prepare();
    $mailer->send();
    $mailer->close();
    </pre>

  • Send email from oracle

    Dear member & developers
    I want to send e mail from oracle application. If anybody knows, how to do this. please write or send a sample application or forms or database sql. I don't restricted to any application version like 10g or 11g same as database...
    I seriously need it.
    Thanks in Advanced.

    As Francois indicated - there are multiple examples around the internet and in the forums. Any email solution you choose is going to require that you have access to a valid email server (SMTP, POP3, etc). Also, the solution is dependent on "Where" you want to send the email from. I prefer a database solution because this makes it available to your entire database application, but you can use a Java email method (using Forms PJC or Java Bean) or you can OLE link to Microsoft Outlook.
    Take a look at Send Email from the Database. I wrote this package based on the DEMO_MAIL package provided by Oracle (via OTN) and stream line things a bit. There is an example of how to use the package in the article.
    Take a look at Send email with HTML body and local file attachements article on Franscois's web site for an example of sending email from an Oracle Form using Java.
    If you need to use Outlook - search the forum. I don't consider this to be a reasonable method so I don't use it or recommend it. I'm sure it works fine for others, I just think being dependent on a application installed on the client is not a solid solution. That's just my opinion. ;-)
    I search through out the net. Didn't get any tutorial video or any working materiel. I disagree with this statement - I did a quick Google search and found many examples (no videos) and demo's.
    Hope this helps,
    Craig B-)

  • Sending emails from preview with alternative email clients

    Hi, I've got a problem. I've changed my standard email-client from Apple Mail to Unibox. And, of course, I changed the standard email client in the adjustments of Apple Mail too. So everything is working fine except one thing:
    When I try to send a pdf-file from Apple preview.app as a mail, nothing happens. What can I do to tell Apple Preview to use my new Mail-client Unibox for sending mails?

    Hi, Kevin.
    I understand your need to support sales leave-behinds from your DPS app, which is why I wrote that blog post in the first place.
    The mailto: hyperlinking approach works well from a web browser, but the webkit overlay that we we get from iOS (that we use in DPS) is definitely not a browser. Browsers have special access to the local file system, where we would like to store PDFs to attach to email. The webkit overlay does not have this access, so we can't use the normal scheme of:
    mailto:[email protected]?subject=my%20email%20message&body=see%20attachment&attachment="\\myhost\myfolder\myfile.p df" to pass the path to Mail.app.
    This limitation means that you need to use some other method to provide access to that PDF. In my blog article (to which you refer), I provide a method to provide a form that would compose an email that contains a link to the PDF, which would need to be hosted somewhere the reader could access in their browser. An alternative to this approach would be to construct a server-side form that lets a validated user (sales rep?) select some files and send them to their customer. The email would need to be composed and sent from the server, and a quick Google search reveals whole pile of PHP examples of how to send email from a web form.
    Frankly, for your use case of sales enablement, I believe that a server-side system is the better choice, because it would provide you with a way to manage that content outside of DPS, so you can update it without having to republish your .folios.
    Thanks,
    James

  • How can i send emails from forms

  • SENDING MASSIVE EMAILS FROM AN  ORACLE FORM

    Has anybody been able to send large amounts of email from an Oracle form,
    say 9,000 or more eamil addresses?
    I have been able to go in access MICROSOFT OUTLOOK, open up a new email
    message and have the recipient line preformatted with less than two thousand
    email addresses but I get an error when I try to preformat the the recipient line
    with more than four thousand email addresses.
    The error that I get is ORA-06502 AND FRM-40735.
    Does anybody have any ideas?

    Mail transport protocols may well be capable of handling an email message having nine thousand recipients, but your mail client, mail server, or organizational policies will likely introduce limits of their own, never mind the artificial constraints imposed by Oracle datatypes. If your requirements permit the approach of sending multiple messages of, say, one thousand recipients each, I would suggest that. If not, I would suggest re-evaluating your requirements -- refusing to define some reasonable threshold is asking for trouble.

  • Help: how to send emails from FORMS?

    Are there simple steps to send emails from FORMS?
    Thank you in advance.
    Jimmy

    I'm sure there are many ways to send emails from Forms. Personally I never had to do this, but I can imagine following ways.
    a) use UTL_SMTP-Package to send the email via your database
    b) use a Java-Call

  • Cannot send email from an iPhone to a Outlook group.

    Hi,
    My question is simple and I'd like an exactly same answer : Can iPhone users send emails from their iPhone's to one or more groups created in Outlook?
    This is my situation: our organization is using iPhone to provide email, calendar, contact, task etc. to some of their employees. We are using Airwatch MDM Agent on user's iPhone because we have an Airwatch server in place. I have an user and she has an iPhone 5 and she has created some groups in Outlook but these groups are not reflected in her Contacts in the iPhone. I have update her phone with the latest update, although I was almost sure that this was not the issue, then I've found some interesting posts on internet saying that this was a known problem for the users with the previous iOS but I thought this might has been corrected with the iOS, apparently not.
    Also I've tried ''the trick'' that is posted on several forums with the iCloud but neither so it's working. I am looking for a straight answer, if this works or not on iPhone's?
    Thanks,
    Sebastian.

    There indeed ARE apps in the app store that will do what you want.  Just search and find the one that best fits your needs.

  • Still cannot send email from icloud .me address

    hi. does anybody knows why i cannot send email from my ipad (ios 5.0.1) icloud me.com account? i can recieve but i cannot send. on my mac (lion) it works perfectly. the message i get is "the sender address .mac.com was rejected by the server". mac.com ?? but i use my me.com address. any ideas pls?
    thank you

    I have been having the same problems for the last two days now.  It won't let me send, but it will let me save it to my drafts folder.  I even tried opening the e-mail form my iPhone 5 and it won't let me send it there either.  The last two times i ended up copying the contents from my failed e-mail on my phone and pasting that into a new e-mail and that works.  I normally use the icloud web app to reply to e-mails when i'm at work (using win 7) and it is very frustrating. 

  • Can't send email from Outlook with parentheses in address

    I can't send email from Outlook 2007 through my WRT400N when Outlook displays the address with parentheses as in this example: Firstname Lastname ([email protected])
    I can send if the address is in this form: Firstname Lastname <[email protected]>
    I have tested with the ISP and nothing gets through the router when the problem occurs. When I bypass the router, both forms of address will send correctly. This problem is perfectly reproducible. My router is brand new, but the problem did not show up for about a week after installation. OS is Win7. Any ideas? Thanks.

  • How do I fix Mail in Snow Leopard where I cannot send emails from my account to another account I've set up in Mail, but the reverse works fine?

    I have a problem with Mail in Snow Leopard in that I cannot set up two email accounts for myself and my wife with the same ISP and have them operate properly.  I've set up the accounts in strict accordance with my ISP's instructions for setting up email accounts on Mac Mail but I cannot send an email from my account to my wife's without a drop-down message appearing that Mail 'cannot send the email from this server.  Please edit the server list'.  No amount of tweaking appears to work.  Applecare consultants have so far been unable to get it to work and a recent visit to the local Genius Bar in the Apple Store was fruitless also.  My ISP's help line was unable to solve the problem even with a supervisor level consultant.  The ISP concluded it was some kind of 'bug' in Mail.
    I could send emails from my wife's account to mine, but not vice versa; I could send emails to other addresees without any problem and I can send emails from my account to my wife's using the ISP's webmail.
    Does anyone please have a solution to my problem?  At the moment we're operating one account (mine) on my Macbook and my wife's is set up on her iPad2.  As we prefer to use the Macbook for storage and (using Time Machine) for back-up of our data, the two accounts on separate machines is a nuisance.
    Another factor is that I prefer to control when I download emails and set my preferences accordingly.  One of the so-called 'fixes' that were tried wound up downloading emails regardless of settings, even after removing my wife's account; the matter was remedied only after I had removed all accounts form Mail and started afresh from scratch.

    You'll have to pardon my ignorance of some  computer terminology; I'm a retired manager and not a computer technician, hence my muddling up of client and server terminology.
    Re your comment about Port 339: I did qualify this with (?).  As I wrote, it all happened at lightining speed and the guy at the Genius Bar didn't bother explaining what he was doing.  Port designation contained 3s and 9s to the best of my recollection.
    That said, you seem to be spot on re setting up a 'dummy' client in Mail.  I set it up as you suggested and I can send to and receive from this client without a problem.  You appear to have identified the solution, notwithstanding the claims of the ISP's 'experts'.
    The next problem I have now is sorting out my wife's mailbox that is so troublesome whenever I set it up on Mail.
    All the other set-up advice to date yielded a similar result; inability to send from my account to her inbox.  Perhaps deleting her details from the account altogether and setting them up again from scratch may be the solution and I shall try that in due course.  The impediment that I have with this at the moment is that my ISP admits that it has 'a technical problem with its email servers' and some of its related web pages that prevent my doing this myself.  I will have to go through the telephone 'help' line and ask the technician to set it up at their end on my instructions.  This has some disadvantages in that I have to divulge the password to the account to the operator rather than keeping it anonymous by doing it on-line.   You may have solved the problem, but until I can successfully sort out a working mailbox for my wife i cannot definitively say so.
    Many thanks for your perseverance.  You've made more sense than anyone else so far and that deserves some points, surely?

  • Can not send email from .mac account from the iPhone

    I'm having problems sending email from my iPhone from my .Mac Account and says the outgoing server timed out. Any Suggestions?

    This error message indicates you are not using the correct server port for .Mac's SMTP server.
    Did you transfer the account settings from your Mac to the iPhone automatically via the iTunes sync process or did you manually create your .Mac account on the iPhone?
    If the former, go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP Server selection, select the Server Settings button below for .Mac's SMTP server.
    If 25 is available in the Server Port field, enter 587 in place of 25 and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting and then re-sync your iPhone making sure your .Mac account is selected for account settings to be transferred to the iPhone.

  • TS3276 I need feedback for the following issue. When I send email from this 27 inch iMac, the computer adds a string of characters in vertical column that represents the QWERTY key board, all alpha numeric characters are included. Yahoo mail, issue only o

    Restating my issue / question...
    When I send email from this iMac, there is a string of characters assigned. The characters are all the "alpha numeric" characters on the QWERTY key board. This only occurs when email is sent from this iMac. The issue does not manifest when using any other lap top or computer.
    Hence, I have ruled out the issue is a yahoo mail matter.
    Again, I can access the Yahoo mail account form multiple devices and send email without unintended assignment of character strings, but when I send wmail using this iMac, the issue happens everytime.
    Characters are stacked verticaly in a column. It looks as if all characters (except function keys) are included in the string.
    Any ideas?

The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -f -a TextEdit 
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Post the contents of that window, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    { sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; } | open -f -a TextEdit 
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}' | open -f -a TextEdit 
    Step 4
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit  
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' | open -f -a TextEdit 
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.
