SharePoint Online and POP email

I have a client who is interested in using SharePoint Online, but they are using pop email hosted by Rackspace. Can someone tell me if this will cause any issues with SharePoint, is there any limitation in SharePoint functionality when doing this? Would
email enable workflows still work with POP accounts.  Also are there any issues with SSO and Federation with AD using SharePoint Online?
Thank you for the help.
Thanks in advance for your time. Steven

Hi,
The email address for users when used in a workflow is the email address set in SharePoint Admins User Profiles in Office 365. The field is called Work Email. This is automatically populated with the primary SMTP address of the user and mail is sent to it
if licensed for Exchange Online. Depending on the workflow, you should be able to send mail to external users, because the workflow when triggered will fall dependant on the permission of the user initiating the workflow.
No, there are no real issues with SSO (ADFS 2) or DirSync and SP Online... Just be sure to be mindful of deleting and recreating users, or stopping and starting sync because you could run into permissions issues within Sharepoint Online due to user guid
conflicts.

  • One Identity in SharePoint Online and SharEPoint on Azure

    Dear All,
    I create the portal in SharePoint Online and I used local AD for identity.
    But when I create the infopath form and workflow, I have used SharePoint on Azure.
    My question,
    If user access through SharePoint Online portal, and I do hyperlink to form on sharepoint azure. Can we use the same identity?
    For example, user A access portal via SharePoint Online, when he click the form. it's directly automatically to SharePoint on Azure. No login again.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to open a form on SharePoint azure from SharePoint Online with the same identity.
    For your issue, you need to consider these technologies:
    1)
    Shared Access Signature
    2)
    WIndows Azure Acess Control
    You can have a look at the blog:

  • How to set up Sharepoint Online and OneDrive for business like shared path in local network

    Hi!
    I need to create in OneDrive for business or Sharepoint Online shared folder with documents that would be visible to all selected employees or all employees of the selected group.
    How to make it through the admin panel of Office 365, not by creating a folder in any user's access and send invitations to each user by email?

    Do you mean you want to map OneDrive for Business as a network drive? If so have a look at this technical article

  • Clarification on SharePoint Online and SQL Server

    I have several subsites on a SharePoint 2013 server that uses external content types and the Business Data Connectivity Service to access tables in a SQL Server database. I used the Sharepoint 2013 Designer to configure most of this, but at times, I also
    used Visual Studio 2013. Everything works fine. It successfully uses a secure store Application ID to authenticate connections to a remote SQL Server (i.e. the SQL Server and SharePoint server are 2 completely different machines that are not even within the
    same domain). The external lists on the SharePoint site are capable of reading data in the SQL tables, updating data, adding new data, and deleting old data. I have specified permissions to users/groups that help me control who can access the external lists
    on the SharePoint sites. Everything has been working well for a while now.
    But now I have to start thinking about using SharePoint Online, instead of an on-premises SharePoint server. And everything I am reading indicates that what I do above is not going to work with SharePoint Online. It sounds like I will have to either move
    our database to a SQL Azure service, or if I want to continue using our existing SQL Server, then I am going to have to develop a WCF service that will allow SharePoint Online to communicate with our own SQL Server. Am I understanding this correctly? Or is
    there a way to take what I did above and make it work with SharePoint Online?
    Thank you,
    Steven

    Hi,
    We can use Hybrid Connections to connect SharePoint Online to an on-premises SQL Server.
    Here is a blog from MSDN for your reference:

    We can also customize a WCF service and publish it to public web site to achieve it.

  • SharePoint Online custom alert emails

    How can I change the alert email that SharePoint online (part of Office 365) send out.  I've seen alot of reference to AlertTemplate.xml but that is if you have SP installed on a local server.
    I would like to add the check in comments to the alert email.

    Hi Scott,
    The Alerttemplates.xml file is located at: Local_Drive\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\Template\XML directory on On-Premise SharePoint local server, so we can customize the alert template file on local server with server
    administration permission per this
    article.
    But in Office365 SharePoint Online, if you wan to customize the alert template you need to customize the Alerttemplates.xml under 14 folder on Online server, but it is not permitted, check this article
    you also have seen.
    You can also post this question related SharePoint Online in dedicated Office365 SharePoint Online forum, you can get a better assistance there,

  • Problems with IPhone 4S and pop email

    Hi
    I'd be very grateful if someone here is able to help me
    I recently bought an IPhone 4S and am having problems with the two pop email accounts I need to put on it.
    When I use these settings below (sent to me by my web hosting company) I get the message
    The POP server "mail.myemailaddress.com" is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the "Incoming Mail Server" field
    When I try and send out emails I get the message
    Cannot Send Mail
    The connection to the outgoing server "smtp.myemailaddress.com" failed
    I've also had the message
    CANNOT SEND MAIL
    a copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient (email address) was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying.
    Settings I've put in are
    Pop Account
    Incoming mail server
    Host name  mail.myemailaddress
    User name  my email address
    Password    my password
    Outgoing
    SMTP smtp.myemailaddress

    Use SSL off
    authentication - password
    server port 25
    I've also tried using port 26, port 110 and port 995 with SSL enabled and no luck with any of them
    I've contacted my web hosting comapny but they can't help so anyting suggested here will be very gratefully received

    Some folks think the problem is due to poor solder connections of the WiFi chip on the card. Heating may expand the joints to cause temporary connectivity. The chip itself could be of low tolerance, and the iOS update causes it to fail the threshold. If you have tried the software resets, then the cure is to reflow the solder of the chip to the WiFi card, or to replace the WiFi card. Apple will not "own" this problem, even though it seems to be widespread. Apple offers to renew your contract for a new iPhone at $199. Certain repair shops will tackle this problem, although many local shops will not. In the US try iFix Miami Beach. See them on eBay <http://www.ebay.com/itm/iPhone-4S-Grayed-Out-Wifi-Wireless-Fix-Repair-Service-Tr usted-Specialists-/161160765436?ssPageName=ADME:L:OU:US:1120> for a $69 fix. They fixed my iPhone 4S and returned within a week (even over the Memorial Day holiday weekend). In Europe, I have read about, but have not tried PodMod <http://www.podmod.org>

  • Easy solution for Q10 and POP email setup

    I am posting a suggested solution to all of the POP email headaches for anyone running OS 10.  I recently upgraded from a Torch 9810 to the Q10 and have had an awful time trying to intall and run my sympatico.ca email accoun in the new OS 10.   I understand this is an POP email account.
     I have stumbled upon this solution quite by accident - not one of the so-called tech experts at Bell or Rogers Wireless, despite countless hours spent on the telephone and in chats with them, were able to suggest this to me, which I found quite astounding!
    All fo the tech experts kept telling me to install my sympatico.ca email account as a POP account - despite dozens of attempts, it would never work and sync properly!
    The solution?  Go into the advanced email setup options and choose Outlook as the account type, not POP, Exchange, or anything else.  Enter your email address and account password and do not change any of the default settings that OS 10 will give you.  Just finish the set up and, presto!  You have access to all of your account folders and sycing seems to work magically.  
    I hope some of the tech experts at the Internet and wireless providers read this forum from time to time...it could save frustrated customers many hours!

    It's possible that Sympatico has recently enabled Exchange Active Sync (EAS) access. If so, that is a great thing for all Sympatico users.

  • SharePoint Online and Open XML

    Hi,
    Using OpenXml I can generate word documents in SharePoint Foundation Sandbox just fine. However uploading the solution to SharePoint Online does not seem to be possible as DocumentFormat.OpenXml.dll is not allowed (due to problems with remoting).So is it
    possible to use openxml in sharepoint online or is there another way to generate word documents programmatically in sharepoint online? thanks. 

    According to this post: http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/154/p/15363/70842.aspx#70842
    OpenXML is not available in SharePoint Online. So is it possible to programmatically create reports from a list (word etc.) in SharePoint online programmatically or is this atm impossible?

  • Office 365 Sharepoint Online and Infopath 2013

    I'm looking create an InfoPath 2013 form where the view changes based on the current user.  This is so different departments & managers get access to fields regular submitters don't see.
    This is in SharePoint Online with Office 365.  How can I manage this?  I have tried connecting to SharePoint online via a data connection, but I get errors when it tries to make the data connection.
    Are there any tutorials on how to do this, or at least something put point me in the right direction?

  • Updating a SharePoint Calendar and sending email notifications based on information from an Access Web App

    Hi MSDN Forum,
    I have created an Access Web App that I am hoping to add some functionality to. I am looking to provide email notification to different users from my organization (a field within the Access Table) when the current date approaches the renewal date (another
    field within the Access Table). I would also like to display all renewal dates on a SharePoint Calendar for users to see. Any advice on how to do this would be much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I'm not familiar with how Access Web Apps work. However, on the SharePoint side of things, it looks like a workflow will be your best bet. Are you using Visual Studio? I've created a few tutorials on sending email notifications in Visual Studio 2012. https://youtu.be/JFdiQEyDkEk

  • Is Office Home and Business 2013 fully compatible with Sharepoint Online (Office 365)?

    My client recently upgraded 3 Windows 7 PCs (2-32 & 1-64-bit OS) from Office 2007 32-bit (which was actually working fine against Exchange/SharePoint Online) to Office Home and Business 2013 (32-bit)
    Now, for all 3 PCs, while Office 2013 Word/Excel can open, check out/in, and save SharePoint Online files, there is ALWAYS a 2 minute delay in closing the file which is apparently waiting for the Local Security Authority call to return. This seems
    to indicate an issue related to SharePoint security on the client side.
      Problem Event Name: AppHangXProcB1
      Application Name:        
    WINWORD.EXE
      Application Version:    
    15.0.4657.1000
      Waiting on Application Name: 
    lsass.exe:lsasspirpc
    This is the Local Security Authority Security Support Provider Interface Remote Procedure Call (LSA SSPI RPC)
    My client has 66 licenses for SharePoint Online (Plan 2) and 73 Exchange Online (Plan 1) "stand alone" services. The same failure is happening on 3 Win 7 PCs. All of which I've carefully reviewed against the MS Office trouble shooting guides (start
    Windows OS w/out non-MS services, Word/Excel safe mode w/out add-ons, O365 readiness checks, Office repair, etc.). We have PCs running Win 7 (32 & 64-bit) w/Office 365 ProPlus & Office Professional Plus 2013 that work fine. it's JUST these 3 Win 7
    PCs that were upgraded from Office 2007 to Office Home and Business 2013 that have the 2 min. SharePoint file close time.
    Can you please confirm that Office Home and Business 2013 is compatible w/SharePoint Online
    at least for Excel and Word?
    The "slow close" problem can be demonstrated on multiple site collections/sub sites and w/Excel & Word docs in doc libs and lists
    After many hours capturing information, following the MS Office trouble shooting guides, and repairing the Office install, I've had no luck in resolving this.While Word/Excel will eventually close SharePoint Online files after about
    2 minutes, this is certainly unacceptable. Otherwise, locally stored files close normally and new files were created by the Office 2013 Excel/Word for this testing.
    Any thoughts or guidance would be appreciated.  

    Hi raygabe,
    I couldn't find the document mentioned there is any compatibility between Office365 SharePoint online and Office Home and Business 2013 version, I would recommend that you check if the issue could be reproduced on other Win7 machines installed with Office
    Home and Business 2013 installed directly instead of upgrading from Office2007, see if issue is related to Office application upgrade.
    I also recommend that you post this issue on our dedicated Office365 SharePoint online forum and Office 2013 forum for a better assistance with more experts regarding this issue from the following links.

  • Migrating into a Hybrid SharePoint on premise and SharePoint Online

    We currently have a SharePoint 2007 farm and are migrating to SharePoint 2013 on premise + SharePoint Online hybrid. FYI we are using AvePoint DocAve for this.
    We are trying to get as much contents as possible into SharePoint Online and only keep the highly complex sites (eg, sites with complex workflows, custom web parts, full-trust infopath forms, email-enabled libraries) in SharePoint 2013 on-premise.
    So the requirement is to 'split' a site collection in the source and move a portion of it to SharePoint Online, and the complex portion to SharePoint 2013 On-premise. For sizing guidance, the site collection I'm looking
    at contains 400 subsites that is nested up to 4 levels deep.
    Level 0 is the root site, Level 1 sites are the direct subsites of root site, Level 2 sites are direct subsites of Level 1 sites, and so on until Level 4 sites. We have conducted an analysis of these subsites individually and know whether they can go to
    SPO or there are complexities that dictate they have to live in the On-premise world.
    So question here is what is the best and recommended way to split this site collection and push as many sites as possible to SPO.

    Hi,
    From your description, you would like to move subsites to another server and to be remained as subsites of original site, so that users will still have the same use experience as before. They will not feel the change for the migration. If
    I misunderstood, please point it out.
    Actually, site collection could not be splited to two locations. For your requirement, here is a workaround:
    Move those sites to SPO as you expect.
    Create a site collection on on-premise server in the place of Lv0.
    Move the rest two site to step 2 site collection as two subsites.
    Modify the navigation on both SPO and on-premise, make it appear to be as the old one. Create links to the sites on another server.

    For eg I have two dns link with office 365 account - abc.com, xyz.com
    So can i set site mailbox email according  using powershell like follwoing
    New-SiteMailbox –DisplayName "test" -Name "[email protected]" –SharePointUrl $NewlyCreatedsiteurl
    New-SiteMailbox –DisplayName "test" -Name "[email protected]" –SharePointUrl $NewlyCreatedsiteurl

    Hi Biraj,
    From your description, you would like site mailbox to have two email address.
    Since the issue is related to SharePoint online and Exchange online, I'd recommend you contact online support engineer for sufficient resource and more assistance. For your convenience:

    Can I rename a site mailbox?            
    The display name of a site mailbox is the SharePoint team site display name. If you change the display name of the site in SharePoint, the display name also changes in Outlook. However, the site email address won’t be changed.

  • How to get Client ID and Client Secret for Office App for Word which accessing SharePoint Online

    we currently implementing an Office App for MS Word which access SharePoint list and get data from lists. Our aim is any user can get this app from Office App store and enter their SharePoint URL and browse their own SharePoint lists and use those. When
    I was checking mechanisms which you used to access SharePoint, in some of them have used ClientId and Client Secret to authenticate with SharePoint. I have following questions.
    1.If I want to sell my app using Office app store where can I get those clientId and client secret which is used to  get the access tokens.
    2.Is it possible to create SharePoint app and publish it to SharePoint app store and get clientId and client secret and use it when accessing through office. So users first download our SharePoint app install it to their SharePoint environment then get out
    Office App from Office app store and add it to word. Will this work?

    Hi,
    >> We are planning to develop an Office app to access SharePoint Online and SharePoint on Premise from Microsoft word.
    I’m not very familiar with SharePoint development, so please correct me if I have any misunderstandings about your requirement.
    The basic components of an app for Office are an XML manifest file and the default webpage of your app (server side).
    >> If I'm publishing my Office App for Word in to the Microsoft office app store, how do I get the ClientId and ClientSecret which I need to pass to authenticate with SharePoint online?
    As far as I know, when register your web app to SharePoint Online, you will get the ClientId and ClientSecret from the Azure Active Directory. And you need to store the Client ID and Client
    Secret on the app server side.
    For details, you could reference the article
    Building an Office 365 ASP.NET MVC app.
    >> If ClientId and ClientSecret not providing when we publishing Word Office App to the app store how what the ways which we can use to authenticate with SharePoint using Word Office app?
    You don’t need to provide the ClientId and ClientSecret when publishing your App to App Store. They are stored on your app server side.
    By the way, if you have the question about how to access the SharePoint resource in a Web Application, I will suggest you posting the questions to
    SharePoint Development Forum. For this forum, we mainly discuss the questions about using the Office JavaScript API to develop Apps for Office.
