Sending email from Oracle Forms with attachments

Hi,
Is there any package or option available in Oracle forms to send email with attachments?
Your reply will be highly appreciated.
Regds,
noneda

There are a couple of ways to send email (with attachements) from Oracle Forms. Check out these links to some examples.
using OLE2 or CLIENT_OLE2 to access a mail-client via Mail-Api ( Get and set Outlook properties )
using MAILTO in conjunction with HOST or CLIENT_HOST to "start" a mail-client ( Re: Open Microsoft Outlook new massage with TO containing the email address )
using UTL_SMTP for database-side-mailing ( Re: Send mail with attachment )
Hope this helps,
Craig...

Do anybody know about sending the sms from oracle forms.If anybody had means please send me the script...... This is a commonly asked question. Have you tried searching the forum for possible solutions? Take a look at this search result. I would also recommend you take a look at the Oracle Forms Services 11g web page and scroll down to the Oracle Forms 11g calling a web service link. This is a white paper published by Grant Ronald that specifically describes the process of sending SMS from Oracle Forms.

ACL error when sending email from Oracle 11g

Hi,
It returned something like "error...ACL security" when I tried to send email from Oracle 11g. Is there any security thing that I need to release in Oracle 11g? I used to send emails from Oracle 10g and didn't find any problem.
Thanks.
Andy

In Database 11g Oracle introduced Network Access Control Lists (ACLs) to protect the database from users using the many internet-capable packages such as UTL_INADDR, UTL_HTTP, UTL_TCP, etc.
Read all about it in the docs and look at the code demos here:

Email from Oracle Forms Server/10gAS

I know we can use DB SMTP package to send email from DB. But we like to send emails along with attachments from Oracle Forms/10gAS server.
What is the best solution that is available? Any options in WebUtil in Oracle Forms?
Thanks

Hi,
I'm doing a similar kind of thing on our app server. We're using WebUtil to interact with the client outlook (either that or install Outlook on the app server machine). Forms is controlling the email software.
Oracle does have a white paper on this something to do with MAPI sessions but it was so long ago that I did this that I can't remember.
Hopefully this will help you somewhat

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-)

Send email from oracle xe table

Hi, just a question, does any one know if oracle has any built in email functionality ?
I have an oracle xe table with email addresses in it, I want to send emails using the addresses.
Yes I know I can connect to it with many things and send emails, but I was wondering if there is any way to send directly from oracle ?

Cannot send email from iPad & iPhone with Virgin Media

I cannot send emails from my iPad and iPhone. I have a virginmedia.com address and I can receive but just cannot send. A message keeps saying the smpt settings are wrong. However, I have followed the tutorial on Virgin Media web site (this is how I managed to start receiving emails on my devices) but still not sending. I have looked at the settings in my MacBook Pro and all seem to be correct. Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong? I had a similar problem when I loaded Microsoft Office 365 for Mac; I had to end up calling Virgin Media (useless) and then Microsoft (useful). Anyhow I have looked at the settings on the Mac and they all seem to correspond with the ipad and iphone but still cannot send emails. V V Frustrated.
Thanks for reading.

Then make sure that the settings are correct in your email account.
Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

Try disable warnings:
Visual Basic 6 (VBA)
OlSecurityManager.ConnectTo OutlookApp
OlSecurityManager.DisableOOMWarnings = True
On Error Goto Finally
'... any action with protected objects ...
Finally:
OlSecurityManager.DisableOOMWarnings = False
If you find correct syntax with OLE2 post your code ;)
