[SOLVED] Sending mail from localhost

This is probably a newbie question so I will post it here. I am trying to send a simple mail from localhost. I don't own a domain and I don't need anything complicated. I just have a script that if X case happens, my computer will send me an email notification. I've done this before on Redhat systems at work but do not know how to set it up on arch. On Redhat, I would simply just run the mail command with default settings and a mail would be sent from hostname@localhost to my target gmail address. I installed s-nail and sendmail on my arch machine and when attempting to send a test mail using # echo "this is a test" | mail -s test [email protected] , I receive the following messages in my journal:
Oct 13 14:47:07 arch-desktop sendmail[2341]: r9DJl7DH002341: to=[email protected], ctladdr=myusername (1000/100), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30210, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1]

I followed the sendmail setup instructions on the arch wiki page and used the default sendmail.mc file that was shown there.

Sending mail from local host

hi, i am running my application in tomcat.
if i specify a smtp host server name , could able to send a mail in same domain without using authenticator.
But i want to know without specifying a smtp server name, is it posstion to send email using "localhost" as the server.
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.transport.protocol", "smtps");
props.put("mail.smtp.host", smtpHost);
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance( props);
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage( session );
message.setFrom( new InternetAddress(aFromEmailAddr) );
message.addRecipient(
Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(aToEmailAddr)
message.setSubject( aSubject );
Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
BodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
messageBodyPart.setText(aBody);
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
MimeBodyPart attachmentBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
DataSource source = new FileDataSource(filePath);
attachmentBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source));
attachmentBodyPart.setFileName(fileName);
multipart.addBodyPart(attachmentBodyPart);
message.setContent(multipart);
Transport.send( message );
In my code if i mention a smtp server name in smtpHost , code is working fine, but i want to use localhost.
so what will be the code for that??? should i have to configure anything.
plz help.
thnx in advance

The code for sending mail from localhost is simply this:
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "localhost"); But this will not work unless you have an SMTP server running on the same computer where that code is running. That's what "localhost" means. If you are trying to send e-mail without using a server which knows who you are, stop trying to do that. That makes you a spammer. Don't do it.

Cannot send mail from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2007

I have an
Exchange 2007server with all roles in the same server (Version:
08.03.0327.001 ) on a Windows 2008 R2 server. I have now installed two Exchange 2013 servers both with CAS and MBX roles on Windows 2012 servers
(full patched). There is also a DAG between the new servers. All mail goes through a BorderWare besides the internal mail.
I can send mail from both environments to the Internet. I can also send internal mail from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013.But the problem is that I am unable to send from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2007. I've debugged, but not solved the problem and there are
few articles on the Internet.
Any suggestions?

These two sentences are in conflict : "I can also send
internal mail
from Exchange
2007 to
Exchange 2013. But
the problem is
that I am unable
to send from Exchange
2007 to
Exchange 2013. "
Can you describe what is your real problem? Flow from E2007->E2013? Or vice versa?

Error while sending mail from SAP

Hello All,
Recently we are facing an error while sending mail from SAP. When we try to compose a message ,it is moving to a dump error RAISE_EXCEPTION.
The details from ST22,
Short text
    Exception condition "FOLDER_NOT_EXIST" raised.
Error analysis
    A RAISE statement in the program "SA
    condition "FOLDER_NOT_EXIST".
    Since the exception was not intercep
    program, processing was terminated.
Kindly suggest..
Thank You,
Regards,

Hello Priyanka,
Actually, I performed the following two steps in order to solve the issue:
- In transaction SICF, the node for SAPConnect must be active. In our system, this node was in inactive state. Hence I activated it.
- Then In transaction SCOT-> Settings menu--> default domain should be 'xyz.com' if the email addresses in your company are maintained with a suffix xyz.com.
But for me the problem didnt get solved here..
The problem that i am facing now is that if in my user profile, I have the email address maintained, then i get an error saying 'Sender address rejected'. However, if i goto transaction SU01 and clear the email id, the mail is successfully sent to outer world.
You can try the above mentioned two steps using SICF and SCOT. If the problem does not get solved then try clearing the mail id in ur user profile.
Hope this helps. If you find an answer to the problem of the mail id getting cleared, then please let me know..

Himanshu

Can no longer send mail from other apps

Problem:
If I go into any app (other than Mail) and try to send a message (via email) and I either get nothing or some apps will say that "Mail needs to be configured in order to do this." After doing a restore on my iPod touch (4th Gen., running the latest iOS5) I had only configured a few accounts under "Mail, Contacts, Calenddars", and *was* able to send mail from other apps just fine. Now that I have 13 accounts I cannot; not only is Mail configured and working fine (by itself,) but I now only have one account with "Mail" activated, and it is indeed set as the "default account" in Settings anyhow. This is frustrating since some apps depend on email to let me export its data but is also a nuisance since it makes it more difficult for me to share content with others.
Has anyone encountered this bug and/or have a tip?

It is possible the Evil Starbucks empire has blocked SMTP sending as an antispam measure. You would need to log in to your email server using the smtpauth protocol. For example, Earthlink has an smtpauth.earthlink.net server for secure sending, which I was able to use sending from any public AP. Possibly T-Mobile has a similar authorized server.
But nowadays I just use Gmail, they make it easy and reliable to send from anywhere because they use a custom smtp port. Yeah, Gmail solved a multitude of problems with mobile sending.

If I assign authorization SAP_ALL to the user that create PR. The approver can recieve the workflow item PR in SBWP and email to their mail
Can you tell me about the authorization that can allow the user to send the workflow item PR in SBWP and email to the approver?
Now user can send mail to external and internal mail and I also configured the mail server in SCOT and can successfully send a mail to users in SO01 by manually creating a message.

Sending Mail from workflow or updating container elements

Dear friends,
I'm new to work flow.
My requirement: send mail from workflow to a user after dead line is missed I do not want to use messages in 'Latest end' tab. I want to send mail.
The mail id of the user is determined in the previous step using a FM. How do I use this mail id to send the mail. I thought of using 'Rule' option in 'Send Mail' (and use same FM)but thats not possible. In that case how do I pass the mail id value to the WF container from the FM?
I also tried this idea:
created a task with BOR object SELFITEM, method 'SENDTASKDESCRIPTION' .
*in an activity step used this task and filled the 'Rule' option in notification tab appropriately
*in this case the WF goes into an error '.....error executing 'sendtaskdescription' .....'
*i would prefer using the activity step because, the mail has to be sent after a delay
Is there any other simple method to do this?
My problem would be solved even if someone can show me how to transfer values from a FM into a WF container.
Can someone please explain?

Can you tell me exactly what to change with regard to my outgoing smtp. and PE the authentication ?

Sending mail from non-BT accounts

I have email accounts with Apple (mobileMe), my own domain (hosted by Verio) and another of my own domains (hosted by Network Solutions) - as well as the BTinternet.com email account.
Until today, all four accounts were set up on my email client (Apple Mail) to use their own respective SMTP servers for outgoing mail, and all four have worked fine in this way for literally years.
This morning, I started getting error messages trying to send mail from the domain hosted by Verio ("cannot send message using the server [my own domain's SMTP server]").
In the end, I followed the steps outlined in a thread on this forum to "add" the account to BTYahoo, verify it, and change the email client settings to use BT's SMTP server. So now it works fine.
What I don't get is why I had to change this one account, when the other non-BT accounts (Apple and NS SMTP servers) continue to work fine as they are (ie using their own server details for outgoing mail).
Anyone know the answer? Obviously it works, so there's no problem (apart from wasting 2 hours this morning trying to figure out what the **bleep** had gone wrong), just curious as to BT's logic here.
Solved!

Hi Gregch.
To be honest, the problem seems to be at the destination smtp service end and nothing to do with BT. You've not really supplied any details of the error message - is there anything else in the received message ?
You've assumed that it's a BT fault, rather than perhaps investigating the possible error at Verio. As the other accounts work as exists, it really does point at Verio (or indeed something local, perhaps a security package interferring etc).

Hi,
=> To get the deadline worked via programming, you can write your own logic. In current case,
1. Create a custom function, having proper input and output parameters like End Time to wait if in case you have maximum of 2 days of wait.
The total wait time is calculated from the Endtime, which is input to function module. From the Endtime, the start date and end date are calculated and then the difference between the two dates is counted as total wait time.
Here at the most 2 days of wait time is calculated.
* Local parameters
DATA: LV_UTCSTART TYPE /SDF/CMO_TSTMP,
 LV_UTCEND TYPE /SDF/CMO_TSTMP,
 LV_SECOND TYPE /SDF/CMO_SEC,
 LV_ENDDATE TYPE SY-DATUM,
 LV_STR TYPE STRING.
IF ENDTIME >= SY-UZEIT AND ENDTIME <= '235959'.
* Today's date
 LV_ENDDATE = SY-DATUM.
ELSE.
* Tomorrow's date
 LV_ENDDATE = SY-DATUM + 1.
ENDIF.
* Get the Start Time for function module
CONCATENATE SY-DATUM SY-UZEIT INTO LV_STR.
MOVE LV_STR TO LV_UTCSTART.
CLEAR LV_STR.
* Get the End Time for function module
CONCATENATE LV_ENDDATE ENDTIME INTO LV_STR.
MOVE LV_STR TO LV_UTCEND.
CLEAR LV_STR.
* Get the total wait time in seconds
CALL FUNCTION '/SDF/CMO_TIME_DIFF_GET'
 EXPORTING
 UTC_START = LV_UTCSTART
 UTC_END = LV_UTCEND
 IMPORTING
 SECOND = LV_SECOND
 EXCEPTIONS
 PARAMERR = 1
 OTHERS = 2.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
* WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
* Wait for total time
WAIT UP TO LV_SECOND SECONDS.
2. Now, create one method in the BOR object whose event triggers your workflow.
3. Use this method in an activity step in you workflow where you want to wait on some given conditions.
=> You can use the email ID which was given by earlier step in Send Mail step. Just make your email id field as Export/Import AD_SMTPADR type of parameter. In the send mail, use this Id in Email Address input.
Hope this helps your.
PS If the answer solves your query, plz close the thread by marking it Solved and rewarding each reply.

Vohra,
Take a look at this AskTom thread -
http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/ask/f?p=4950:8:17145199247327995192::NO::F4950_P8_DISPLAYID,F4950_P8_CRITERIA:255615160805
It details how to use the utl_smtp package to send emails.
I have to ask however, since you're not doing anything 'fancy' like adding email attachments, why aren't you using the (much simpler) htmldb_mail package to send email?
