Sending html email using utl_smtp

(Oracle 8.1.7)
I'm using the following procedure to send an HTML formatted e-mail. It sends email but I'm seeing in Outlook html code instead of formatted mail. (It sends text like :
a bit of text
--a1b2c3d4e3f2g1
content-type: text/html;
<html><head></head><body>HELLO </body></html>
a1b2c3d4e3f2g1
What can I solve this problem?
Thanks in advance...
its usage :
html_email('smo@....','smo2@...','This is a subject','a bit of text', '<html><head></head><body>HELLO </body></html>', 'some hostname',25);

There have been many very good threads on sending email using the UTL_SMTP on the forum including threads that deal with HTML formated mail.
The basic process is to the same as with sending regular (non HTML) mail, but you add some additional headers to the mail message as well as additional formatting to the message body (e.g. HTML tags as needed).
Specifically you need to add the two following headers:
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/html

How to format and send html email using utl_smtp

Hi,
I need to send email in the html format from within the database using utl_smtp. I am really not interested in creating os level file using "set markup html on spool on" and sending that as an html attachment. Can someone please give a code?
1. Output of a select needs to be emailed (for example : select empid, name from emp, salary)
2. Certian cells for example salary < 4800 needs to be higlighted in Red color
3. I need to send email which is having more than 32767 characters (I can not use varchar2 field)
I have reffered to following url on asktom:
http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:1739411218448
However it does not help.
If someone has a sample code with any select from a table, it would be a great help.

Sending HTML Email Using Report Bursting

Hello all,
I have a requirement whereby I am sending the report as an attachment to some users and as a link to other users. Report bursting would seem to be the answer and is working well with the exception of the HTML formatted email. When attempting to email a link, my html tags are still showing up as text. I have tried using < and >
I have also specified format=html in my distribution.xml file to no avail.
Any ideas ??
Monty

Where are you adding your html code for the link ?
Is it in a field in the report or are including it as part of the distribution.xml file?

How to send HTML email using alert framework? Kindly help!

Hi Experts,
      I am using alert framework (alert category) to send email. In the email message I want to use HTML content along with some hyperlinks.
     How can I do this?
     kindly help!
Thanks

Hi,
To send hyper links, you can add the links in the FollowUp Activity.
The content of the mail from the alert framework will be a text mail.
One option would be to check in your SCOT settings if it would be possible to set the Content Type as TEXT/HTML . If yes, then maybe this should be possible.

Send HTML email using OSB email transport

Hi all
The client we are working for has a specific email template (HTML based) in which emails need to be send. I have tried using the HTML tags to frame this email string, but when I open the email in outlook, I can see the tags as it is. Tags like are not recognised as HTML rather taken as normal strings.
Pls help in framing an HTML based email message using OSB. Thanks

Hi Anuj
Thanks again! You are a life savior. Actually i did check the blog, but the author was modifying http headers in the blog using $outbound variable directly using xpath. So, i just wanted to clarify, if using transport headers for outbound request for email protocol would do the job.
I will check and post back the results. I am currently struggling with OSB and Log4j java callout. I am getting weird logs from OSB server in my interface specific log.

under email_sender_help package just before under begin_session function, it gives me an error saying:
ORA-29279: SMTP permanent error: 503 5.5.1 EHLO/HELO first. s27sm2097329qbs.12
So then if i enter the same code after:
utl_smtp.command(conn,'STARTTLS');
utl_smtp.helo(conn, smtp_domain);
It gives me an error:
ORA-29278: SMTP transient error: 421 Service not available

look like rely turned off on the server..
check this.. or ask your network guys..
Go to Control Panel->Add or Remove Programs->Click on
Add/Remove Wndows Components
Check IIS check box.
Select Internet Information Service (IIS) option and click on Details button
Check whether SMTP Service is checked or not.
If not selected then select SMTP check box.
This process should be done on server.
It will help out from ORA-29278: SMTP transient error: 421 Service not available problem.
thanks

Sending HTML email to Lotus Notes

Guys,
We have to send en email to our customers in an intra net site. And our SMTP server is Lotus Notes. When ever I send html email, it is sent as attachment. Here is why that happens with html email:
http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=899&uid=swg21088385
Now I am looking for alternative ways to send html email using Java Mail to Lotus Notes client. My last option is RTF or plain text. But still how do I manager the URL links.
Thanks

Well, It sounds like you already answered your own question.
Answer
In Domino� 6.x and later, the following notes.ini settings are enabled by default for any user that has a setting of
"Prefers Notes Rich Text" in the "Format preference for incoming mail" field in the user's Person document:
MIME_Convert_HTML_To_Attachment=1
MIME_Convert_Alternates=0No matter what you code on your side. If you send your messages as HTML the Lotus Notes Mail Server will convert the the HTML to Attachments.

How to maintain format in html email using the send email....

Does anyone know how to maintain the format in a HTML email using the Send E-mail To Recipients From Recordset behavior?
When text only is selected instead of HTML text on the Options tab the format of the input is maintained, but when HTML text is selected the email has no format. I have tried to use a replace \n with
as I have done when hand coding PHP, BUT I am trying to learn to use ADDT. I also tried to use a Custom trigger without success.
Help!

Hi Dave,
in my snippets folder I have this thing which I found on the old MX Kollection forums and which was suggested by the Interakt staff:
//trigger SendEmail (write content)
function Trigger_SendEmail(&$tNG) {
ob_start();
include("myDynamicContentFile.php");
$mailcontent = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
$emailObj = new tNG_Email($tNG);
$emailObj->setTo("[email protected]");
$emailObj->setFrom("[email protected]");
$emailObj->setSubject("A new User was added");
$emailObj->setContent($mailcontent);
$emailObj->setEncoding("UTF-8");
$emailObj->setFormat("text");
$emailObj->setImportance("Low");
return $emailObj->Execute();
//trigger SendEmail (write content)
The only modification is the possibility to include a dynamic PHP file rather than some static text or a HTML file which will also render textarea contents on one line:
ob_start();
include("myDynamicContentFile.php");
$mailcontent = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
That said, it should be possible to define all the "rendering" options in the external PHP file, what would mean to apply the nl2br function there, e.g.: nl2br($row_queryname['columnname'])
What I´m not sue about is, if you will have to strip the external file´s head and body tags before it´s getting included -- however, please give this a try and tell us how it worked.

How to send html email notification in bpel

hi gurus,
i want to send html email notification from bpel.
before, i already successful send html email with attachment, but when i send an email without attachment, then the body message will turn into a plain text.
as i check from the email accepted, email with attachment will have a mime type "text/html" but if no attachment then it will be "text/plain"
from the bpel configuration, by default the mime type already set to "text/html; charset=UTF-8", below is the sample configuration in my bpel process
[quote]

 <to variable="varNotificationReq"

make sure you put the mime type multipart/alternative into the email payload content. by default, when you add attachment, it will generate mime type multipart mixed automatically.
if you don't change it to multipart/alternative, your email will show a attachment, but actually your email doesn't contain any attachment.
and then for the message and mimetype make sure you have that ns10:bodypart, because this email already been set as a multipart email.
when you add attachment, by default it will generate 2 body part, first one is for the body message and the second one is for the attachment. since i only want to use the body message only, then i have to erase the second bodypart
with this workaround, i can send a html email without attachment perfectly.
but i have to take note, when i updating the email process from process design, then the source will be generated again automatically, and the edited one will be replaced.
thanks.

Make sure you upload all of the images used in your email to a server you control. Then, change your image paths to point to those uploaded images with absolute links.
You will get marked as spam if you attempt to send images as attachments to a large list of recipients and most email clients won't download images to begin with, so make sure your html email makes sense with broken pictures.
CSS support is spotty across email clients, if you use css, make sure it's inline, not embedded in the <head> or externally linked in the <head>. Some email clients strip out the <head> section entirely.
Basically, you need to design your html email as if you haven't moved out of the 90's yet, as far as web design is concerned, in order to get maximum cross client compatibility.
Then, when you're ready, I would suggest using a service like www.icontact.com or www.constantcontact.com if your subscriber list is anywhere over 100 or so recipients.

Then, when you're ready, I would suggest using a service like www.icontact.com or www.constantcontact.com if your subscriber list is anywhere over 100 or so recipients.

Cgiemail and sending html emails

Anyone out there know how to send an html email
using cgiemail? From what I have found on web there needs to be
something special in the header???? I know how to send just .txt
emails but client wants to send html email regardless how much I
warned them on spam and html emails. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. I have exhausted my search for the answer on the web
other than it can be done.
Thanks bunches! skh

You will need to do your homework.
Look at the properties (headers) of an html email you
received.
Read the SMTP RFCs.
Test your email through programs like Spam Assassin.
Test your email in various email programs.
Good luck.

Sending HTML email with SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1

Hi all,
I have implemented a function module to send HTML emails with SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1.
It works fine, but in every email I have at the end a CRLF which looks not very nice in MS Outlook.
It seems that this will be added to every email in addition to my HTML text.
Has anyone an idea how I can prevent this?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best Regards,
Marcel

Hi Marcel,
not only you can, you should use CL_BCS for sending of email. Although I expect it to be not too different from the old functions, it points to the object oriented future of SAP/ABAP. At least it should run more stable and SAP recommends to use it as a replacement for old functions.
I came across one blog

You may be careful with this one: Probably it's not exactly what you need.
The one I love most for its simplicity is this one

although it does not mention HTML - I think easy for you to adapt. Compared to functional SO_DOCUMENT.. approach the program will shrink.
If you want to understand the concepts behind, nobody explains it better than
