Trying to set up email in 11g

Question

I migrated a server + data + APEX application from 10g to 11g. Now my email sending is all messed up because of the ACL in 11g. I can't seem to figure out how to appease it. I have the smtp server correctly set in the parameters. Here is the procedure I'm trying to use (from http://www.morganslibrary.org/reference/pkgs/utl_smtp.html):
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE send_email(
  pFromUser IN VARCHAR2,
  pToUser IN VARCHAR2,
  pSubject IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
  pBody IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL)
IS
  conn          UTL_SMTP.CONNECTION;
  crlf          VARCHAR2(2)    := CHR(13) || CHR(10);
  EmailServer   VARCHAR2(60)   := 'mail.mt.net';
  mesg          VARCHAR2(4000) := 'Hello World';
  pwd           VARCHAR2(200)  := '{substituted}';
  SenderAddress VARCHAR2(200)  := '{substituted}';
  SenderName    VARCHAR2(50)   := 'Blair Christensen';
  pToList       VARCHAR2(4000);
  vToReceivers  VARCHAR2(200);
  uname         VARCHAR2(200);
BEGIN
  conn:= utl_smtp.open_connection(EmailServer, 587);
  utl_smtp.ehlo(conn, EmailServer);
  --utl_smtp.helo( conn, EmailServer );
  utl_smtp.command(conn, 'AUTH LOGIN');
  utl_smtp.command(conn, utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(
    utl_encode.base64_encode( utl_raw.cast_to_raw(uname))));
  utl_smtp.command(conn, utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(
    utl_encode.base64_encode( utl_raw.cast_to_raw(pwd))));
  utl_smtp.mail(conn, SenderAddress);
  utl_smtp.rcpt(conn, pToList);
  mesg:= 'Date: '|| TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'DD MON RR HH24:MI:SS' )|| crlf ||
         'From: "' || SenderName || '" ' || SenderAddress || crlf ||
         'Subject: ' || pSubject || crlf ||
         'To: '|| pToList || crlf||
         pBody || crlf || crlf;
  utl_smtp.data(conn, mesg);
  utl_smtp.quit(conn);
EXCEPTION
  WHEN OTHERS THEN
    RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20001,SQLERRM);
END;
/When I call it, I get the following error:
Error starting at line 1 in command:
exec send_email('--','--','Test','Test email')
Error report:
ORA-20001: ORA-24247: network access denied by access control list (ACL)
ORA-06512: at "APPS.SEND_EMAIL", line 40
ORA-06512: at line 1Can anyone help me?
To Oracle: Why isn't there a nice graphical tool to help administer this?

Answer 1

Can someone please list out the syntax or packages necessary for USE with the DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN package to enable email via UTL_SMTP and UTL_MAIL. THAT is the piece I can't find ANYWHERE.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14072_01/appdev.112/e10577/d_networkacl_adm.htm
Is a great document for describing the DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN package, but I don't have any idea how to apply THIS
BEGIN
  DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.CREATE_ACL(acl         => 'www.xml',
                                    description => 'WWW ACL',
                                    principal   => 'SCOTT',
                                    is_grant    => true,
                                    privilege   => 'connect');
  DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.ADD_PRIVILEGE(acl       => 'www.xml',
                                       principal => 'SCOTT',
                                       is_grant  => true,
                                       privilege => 'resolve');
  DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.ASSIGN_ACL(acl  => 'www.xml',
                                    host => 'www.us.oracle.com');
END;
COMMIT;to setting up email! What does 'www.xml' represent? What do I need to substitute to apply it for use with UTL_MAIL and UTL_SMTP? THAT's the part that ISN'T documented and makes this whole process so frustrating!
