Subscription mails - verification of sent mails

Hi all,
does anybody know wether it´s possible to prove that subscription mails are really sent to every subscribed user? Means that (like in Sent Items box in MS Outlook) sent mails are stored anywhere? The reason why asking is that my customer have the rule of evidence from a juridical point of view.
Any hint is welcome.
Thanks,
Andre

Hi Andre
I am not sure that this information is stored in the portal, but it might be stored on the Windows 2003 server, if that is the origin of the smtp-server you are using. And if it isn't stored there pr. default I would assume that it is possible to higher the logging level or whatever, so the sent notifications will be stored.
If the portal does not return any subscription mail error, and the mails have not reached the subscribers, you will also most likely be able to see the mails on the smtp-server.
But if you have to prove that some mails already have been sent, then that is not much help to you.
Hope it helps.
Kind regards,
Martin

    So, Where sent messages are stored?
    Because if I go into my email account nothing appears in the outbox?Of course not. Why would it appear in your e-mail reader's outbox when your e-mail reader did not send the e-mail ?
    my Pl/sql looks like:
    BEGIN
    utl_mail.send(sender => '[email protected]',
    recipients => '[email protected]',
    subject => 'Test',
    message => 'HOlix');
    END;And this results in the Oracle database server to contact the mail server and send the mail. Your e-mail client is not part of this process. Your e-mail reader does not know about that e-mail. Your e-mail reader is a client- not a server. It has no reason to know what another e-mail client (your PL/SQL code) send or did not send.
    You want an outbox? You need then to design and code one for your PL/SQL mail client.
    I dont understand what happen?Perhaps you should read up on WHAT a mail (SMTP) server is, HOW it works, and WHAT a PPOP3/IMAP mailbox is, and HOW that works?

  • Mail - Yahoo IMAP sent mail not appearing

    Hi all,
    I've been trying to troubleshoot this without much success. I've an iphone and a MBP running Lion. I've several Yahoo and Gmail accounts, and they are all set up as IMAP accounts.
    Receiving and viewing messages are fine. However, if I were to send an email using one of the Yahoo accounts via Mail on the MBP, it gets sent successfully, but that email does not appear within the 'server' sent mailbox, nor within my iPhone mail app. Gmail seems to work fine.
    I've highlighted each relevant 'sent' mailbox on my mac and set it to 'Use this mailbox' within the Mailbox menu, but it has not made a difference.
    Any ideas on how to resolve this?
    Much appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Alvin

    Sending is done via SMTP. What happened here is that SMTP accepted the mails for sending (thus, the mail client put them in the sent folder). From that moment on, SMTP needs to actually deliver mails to the recipient(s). Until this has happened, mails stay in the mail queue of your mail server.
    You did not mention if the mails got eventually delivered, so here is a list of some possible reasons for late delivery or non-delivery:
    -Receiving mail server does not respond
    -Connectivity issues
    -amavisd not running
    -Mail got flagged as spam (non-delivery). This would happen if you are trying to send mail from a blacklisted IP (like dynamic IPs) and your mail server is not configured to bypass spam scans for authenticated users.

  • How to ping mail server in sent mail ?

    in my send mail code if my mail server is invalid then it throws SocketException if i want to ping mail server before i sent email how can i do that if i want avoid this SocketException

    AmitChalwade123456 wrote:

Even if it responds to the ping, it may go down between the ping and sending the mail. Or it may respond to the ping, meaning the box is up, but the mail service may still be down.
    Whether it comes from a failed ping or from an exception, the end result is the same: You can't send mail to that server right now.
    Just catch the exception and handle it. Don't overcomplicate things for no gain.

  • Mail downloading gmail sent mail?

    This could be a gmail thing and not a .mac but I can't find a setting in gmail that seems to account for this action.
    I check my gmail with Mail and only occasionally use it to send stuff but when I do, at the end of the day, Mail seems to download a CC of the mail that I've sent (which I've not actually CCd or BCCd to myself). Does anyone know if this is a mac preference that I cant turn off somewhere?

    Not sure what you mean. If those messages are being sent using Gmail’s webmail interface (which you haven’t made clear), this is normal Gmail behavior and Mail has no bearing on it.
    Gmail POP access doesn’t work like a normal POP mail server would. Here are some of its idiosyncrasies (#4 could be what you’re observing):
    1. Messages downloaded by any conventional POP mail client are marked as downloaded at the server (but not as read on the web), and no longer available to either the same or any other POP mail client.
    2. To make already downloaded messages available for POP access again, you must go to Gmail’s Settings > Forwarding and POP page, select Enable POP for all mail, and click Save Changes, which causes everything (and I mean everything) still on the server to be downloaded again.
    3. The Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Remove copy from server settings have absolutely no effect on the messages stored on Gmail’s server. Gmail ignores any requests to delete messages from the server made by a POP client. What happens to the messages on the server after a POP client has downloaded them is determined by Gmail’s Settings > Forwarding and POP > When messages are accessed with POP setting alone. In the case of Gmail (and only in that case), I recommend turning OFF Remove copy from server in Mail, so that Mail doesn’t even try to remove any messages from the server, regardless of whether you do actually want already downloaded messages to be removed from the server after some time or not.
    4. Messages sent using the web interface will be downloaded by your POP mail client as if they were received messages. Although this may seem weird, it's good because it allows archiving all messages locally in Mail, regardless of how they were sent — as long as you don't access the same Gmail account with more than one POP mail client, that is. You can set up a rule in Mail to automatically route those messages to the appropriate Sent mailbox (or to any other mailbox for that matter) if that's what you want.
    5. Messages sent using a POP/SMTP mail client such as Mail are also treated as if they were incoming messages for POP purposes, just as in #4. What prevents them from being downloaded is that Gmail marks them as already downloaded immediately. Since they’re on the server nonetheless, already sent messages would be downloaded together with all the other messages on the server if proceeding as described in #2.
    6. A particular case of #5 are messages sent to yourself. Instead of putting a copy of the sent message in the server’s Inbox and making it available for download, both the sent and the “received” message on the server are actually one and the same, and hence, cannot be downloaded via POP for the reason explained in #5.
    7. Gmail allows POP accounts to be set up in a special way that avoids some of these issues while introducing others. If you only need POP access to the last 30 days of mail, you may configure Mail in “recent mode”, as described in Using POP on multiple clients or mobile devices. Configuring the account this way would allow Mail to download messages marked by Gmail as already downloaded (and download messages sent to yourself in particular), but it would also cause all sent messages (not just messages sent to yourself or through webmail) to be downloaded as if they were received messages.

  • .Mac Mail sends old sent mail arbitrarily

    For some reason when I look at my Sent mail folder it shows old mail sent today. In other words if I look at my send mail folder and all the mail Sent Date mail says Today there's 1 or 2 pieces of mail that also says Today but I orginally sent it in May. If you look at the header of the mail itself there is no sent date. I don't know if these are being resent or its just a bug in the app. and shows it in my mail folder.
    Any ideas??
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    You’re welcome.
    It does certainly matter how the messages were sent because AFAIK .Mac webmail doesn’t set the Date header on the copy of messages sent that way that it puts in Sent. Neither Mail nor any other mail client can reliably determine the sent date of a message if that header is missing...
    Messages sent with Mail have an X-Mailer header that says so when received. That header isn’t present in the copy of the message that Mail puts in Sent, but it can probably still be determined whether a message was sent with Mail or with webmail by looking at the full headers of the message (which you can see doing View > Message > Long Headers).
    That said, it isn’t clear what your problem really is with the information you’ve provided. It could also be that you’re experiencing some index corruption and Mail is indeed resending some messages on its own. If you suspect that’s the case, you may proceed as follows.
    Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, and ensuring that there’s enough space available on the startup disk (a few GB, plus the space needed to make a backup copy of the Mail folder), try this:
    1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong, e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down. This is where all your mail is locally stored.
    3. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see any other “Envelope Index”-named file there, delete it as well.
    4. Move any “IMAP-”, “Mac-”, or “Exchange-” account folders to the Trash. Note that you can do this with IMAP-type accounts because they store mail on the server and Mail can easily re-create them. DON’T trash any “POP-” account folders, as that would cause all the mail stored there to be lost.
    5. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be “imported”. Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index — Mail says it’s “importing”, but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
    6. As a side effect of having removed the IMAP account folders, those accounts may be in an “offline” state now. Do Mailbox > Go Online to bring them back online.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.

  • Mail missing from "Sent Mail" folder.

    I searched my sent mail files for an email I sent out about 3 months ago. To my amazement, everything in the file before the date of Sept. 23 opened up with a line that went something like: "In order to view this document, you must first go online and download it." When I checked in the menu, it showed that Mail was online. I tried rebuilding my mail and every sent letter before 9/23 was deleted. When I go to my backup files, Mail tells me that the files are not Mail files. I'm perplexed, and haven't a clue as to what to do. This is not the first time I have had lost mail problems. Is Mail full of major bugs? Should I go back to Entourage? I never had a problem when I used it, but hate using any Microsoft applications.
    PowerMac 2 ghz G5 DP   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    I have this same problem. My Sent Messages.mbox says it is 1.94 GB so I know the messages are there. So far, I have found no solutions. Hopefully someone out there has some info - please!

  • MAIL IS EATING SENT MAIL AND SENDING DUPLICATES

    hi-
    i've been having MAJOR mail issues. the biggest are .mac mail is eating my sent email - they just disappear into thin air - never to be found again.
    and i've noticed there are duplicates - 2, and sometime 4 of the same email sent out.
    i am using the mail.mac.com as incoming and outgoing server. i have sbc global as my dsl. i've called applecare numerous times and sbc. they cannot figure it out.
    can someone please help me sort this out?
    thanks so much
    rainey

    well...that's the tricky part. sometimes it eats my mail. and other times it sends out duplicates.
    it tends to do this if i've just sent an email and i go into my sent box shortly after, all of a sudden it'll show up and then poof - disappear.
    other times if i'm not looking at what i've sent i'll ocassionally look in sent box and notice there are 2, 3 and sometime 4 dups sent to the same person.
    these are just 2 problems of the MANY that i've had with email.
    also when i have a disc in my drive (say scrabble game) my minimize options disappear...
    i'm all jacked up.
    any advice on any is greatly appreciated.
    a friend thinks my box is corupted b/c i started it when i was still operating on panther and when i upgraded to tiger problems started.
    thanks

  • AOL Mail - PROBLEMS with sent mail

    My mail is with AOL. Quite often these days I have trouble using Apple Mail. Wondering if it's AOL's problem or something wrong with my computer, or if it's my cable internet provider (Time Warner Cable - which tests at 20/1.75 Mb/sec)
    Sent messages occasionally take FOREVER to send (regular text - no attachments). The transfer speed goes from very low to zero. The second problem is that occasionally sent messages don't show up in my sent folder. Most of the time it's these messages that take forever that don't show up. They don't show up in my sent folder at aol.com either. As if they never existed. Yet I do know that they are actually being sent and delivered.
    Major frustration.

    I have not had any problems using AOL?
    Either had I until today. I got a restricted content message when I attempted to post. I had originally used "aol.com" in my message. I assumed this was the problem, so I removed the ".com". Still got the restricted content message. I tried changing "AOL" to "America Online" and it worked.
    Strange. Seems to be allowing me to post it now. Don't worry about it.
    With the other Sent folder you found, apply Use This Mailbox For and choose Sent. Be sure to first transfer any messages in the one under paper airplane icon to another mailbox it they are not duplicated anywhere else.
    When you do this, all should be well. I think AOL sent out instructions at one point to do just this step.
    Thank you Ernie! This worked! Bravo!

  • OS X mail not receiving sent mail

    I have just set up my Tiger server from scratch for email. But although my email client can see my account and the server is recognised (the MX record is correct) from within the mail app on an external machine. I can also ping using my mail.ourdomain.com.au but If I try to send an email it just disappears into the ether. I have poked the ports for mail in out ADSL modem (this has not changed from when the old server was working) so it is just my setup with the new server (which I installed from scratch including creating new users, as we only have a few people who need email access to our server).
    Is there anyone who can shed some light on why I cannot retrieve email or why it does not seem to be received by the server. Any help would be appreciated
    best regards

    There is something else you should know. We are running a webserver on a second Mac OS X machine on a separate ip so that if the mail server goes down our webserver is still OK. I was running OK on 10.3 server with the same connections but when I upgraded the server it failed to boot up so I erased and installed from scratch, created new users (we only have 10) and hoped to be up and running easily.
    My router has the ports to the server opened (as it did for 10.3 server) and it is a DHCP server, so our server is on 10.1.1.10. Our MX record points to the Main IP. Our domain is mail.trackdown.com.au and that seems OK (hasn't changed).
    So I am at a bit of a loss. If I ping Mail.trackdown.com.au it seems OK.
    Hope this info helps.

  • How to download the "Sent Mail" folder from Gmail to Mail 4.1?

    Since updating to Snow Leopard I no longer have any mail in my Sent Mail folder
    when using IMAP in Mail 4.1. In fact just a few (258) of all my sent messages (3732)
    were properly downloaded.
    I noticed that after configuring my Gmail to work with Mail/IMAP some new folders were
    created. They are: [Gmail]/Sent Mail/Sent, [Imap]/Drafts, Sent messages, and Deleted Messages. Apart
    from those, my Gmail account has always had standard folders such as Inbox, Sent Mail (the majority of my sent messages are in here), Drafts, Spam, and Trash. Apparently Mail is only downloading the messages from the new "Sent messages" folder and not the standard "Sent Mail", wherein all my sent messages actually are.
    Another issue it that the spinning gear next to the Gmail Inbox in Mail 4.1 keeps spinning incessantly as if checking for new messages all the time even though it is set to check for new messages every 5 minutes and all messages has been downloaded. I have another IMAP account for my university's email which is working perfectly (neither problems with Sent Mail folder nor spinning gear). I will post the spinning gear problem in a separate question.
    In my old MacBook I didn't have this problem when using Gmail with POP. This is the first time I'm using IMAP.
    Is anybody having the same problems?

  • How to list the name of recipient in Sent mail folder

    In the Gmail folder in Mail, is a Sent Mail folder. It lists FROM, SUBJECT, and DATE RECEIVED. My wife is the only account using the Mail appl. She would like to know how to have the name of the mail recipient listed, rather than her name as the sender since she already knows that info.
    Thanks.
    Jerry

    Jerry,
    That should happen automatically in Mail.
    Click the Gmail Sent folder. Where the names of the columns is displayed, there should be a dot next to the first column name. Right-click or control-click to get the menu. Click to check To. If you don't want to see From bring up the menu again and click it to uncheck.
    Done.

  • Sent mail is not being received

    Some of my emails use my me.com account are not being received by the recipient.
    The emails show being SENT in my SENT box.

    I have a similar but perhaps unrelated problem. Every now and then, I send an email on my gmail account using Mail. The sent mail appears in my sent box, but never arrives, and does not appear in my webmail sent box (where it usually does, using gmail). Most of the time it works, and it even works most of the time with people it has had a problem with, including mail I send to myself at work at my professional address. Usually arrives...but not always. I don't know how to trust my sent mail box without always going on the webmail to make sure it actually went out. I only have this problem when using the Mail application, but there are no other common characteristics (attachements, ISPs, etc) to say there could be a problem with one of those things. Anyone else have this problem?

  • Sent Mail Missing

    MacBook Pro Laptop and .mac subscriber for years. Opened mail this evening and all sent mail messages are missing. I noticed mail was caching sent mail in Activity Window so I let it run. 1784 messages and attachments apparently were cached. I opened and closed mail and still no sent mail.
    I looked at MobileMe and all my sent mail is on the server. I'm hesitant to do a sync until I know why the messages are off my laptop.

    I doubt the messages are gone; Mail has probably just lost it's mind and doesn't realize they're there. So let's try rebuilding your Mail index.
    1. Quit Mail if it's running.
    2. Go to Home/Library/Mail and remove the Envelope Index file to your Desktop.
    3. Restart Mail and allow it to import your existing mailboxes; when it's done your index will have been rebuilt. Check to see whether or not your messages are back; if so, you can delete the old Envelope Index file on your Desktop.
