UTL_SMTP Send E-Mail Externally

I need to to send emails external to our organisational domain using UTL_SMTP. UTL_SMTP allows the sender to be set to anything you want (eg: [email protected]). I want to authenticate limit the sender to those people who have an account on our MS Exchange Server.
Is there anyway I can use UTL_SMTP to authenticate to an Exchange server account before sending an email.
Thanks,
Jay
I have not been able to send emails outside the organisation.
In both cases the emails are being sent from an e-mail address that has privileges to send external emails utl_smtp.mail( conn, '[email protected]' );
I presume this isn't working because emails sent from Oracle aren't using the Exchange server account for '[email protected]' (I can send emails from so this is definitely the case).
My question is, when I send an e-mail from Oracle, even through the utl_smtp.mail is set to a user defined e-mail address, which is the actual e-mail account it is being sent from? (eg: [email protected]) I can then change the privileges for this account on our Exchange server.
Thanks in advance.

Our Novell email server rejects senders that are not in the address book, so I guess you'd have to look at the Exchange configuration. You could try using the VRFY command if it is implemented. RFC 2821 (which superceeds RFC 821, and is available from http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/ and many other sources) explains the guts of SMTP.

How to use alias in "From" field when I send a mail with utl_smtp ?

Hi all,
I'm using a PL/SQL package with an Oracle 11G database to send mails. It works fine but instead of use of my mail in "From" field like "[email protected]" as sender E-mail address, I would like to have "Toto" in the sender address. I tryied to use utl_smtp.mail(l_connection, '<toto> [email protected]') but it doesn't work. The only way I can send mail is when I set utl_smtp.mail(l_connection, '<[email protected]>') directly. When I use the Alias, I have an error from smtp server telling that I use a bad syntax address.
Does someone know how to use the alias ? Where do I do a mistake ?
Thank you for your help.

Thank you, I find how to solve the problem thanks to your link.
I try to send HTML E-mail so I had the From in the from field writen in the header of the mail and not to initialize the connection.

Sending e-mail using utl_smtp on oracle 9i

Hello
I have problem with sending e-mails using utl_smtp package.
My code looks like this:
lv_mail_conn := utl_smtp.open_connection(lv_mailhost_txt);
utl_smtp.ehlo(lv_mail_conn, lv_mailhost_txt);
res := utl_smtp.command(lv_mail_conn, 'AUTH LOGIN');
res := utl_smtp.command(lv_mail_conn, <login in base64>);
res := utl_smtp.command(lv_mail_conn, <password in base64>);
And I get en error after sending a password to SMTP server.
Error code: 535, text: 5.7.3 Authentication unsuccessful.
This happens on oracle 9i.
I have another server for testing which has oracle 10g installed. This code works fine on oracle 10g but doesn't work on oracle 9i.
Do you have any ideas what's wrong? I assume that SMTP server (microsoft exchange) work correctlys because I can send e-mail from test server.

Ok problem solved :)
Problem was between oracle and MS exchange server. Live server oracle 9i is on linux, and testing server works on windows.
So the problem was with configuration. Our admins corrected it and now works :). I don't know details.

Send Workitem to external mail ID and Execute?

Hi all,
I have requirement to send a WorkItem to Approvers External Mail ID and executes there.I have tried to send text mail to Approver's external mail id using Fm SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1.
It is working fine but how to send WI to external mail id?
Is there any way?
Regards,
Arpita

Hi AC,
there is a way out for the problem which you have where the user doesnt want to put his SAP userid and pwd and wants him to take directly to the SAP screen.
For this you need to create a shortcut in your SAP logon pad for the transaction.
and since you want him/her to go directly to the tcode, you need to put an entry in your sapshortcut.ini
-pw "password"
So what this entry does is the moment user clicks the workitem in Outlook, it would directly take him to the t-code for which you have created the shortcut, without asking him/her credentials.
For your second issue, yes if 2 users get workitem, if any one reserves or executes the workitem, it automatically deletes from the other users SAP inbox.
Hope it helps.

HOW TO SEND MULTIPLE MAILS USING EXTERNAL COMMUNICATION IN ACTIONS

Thanks in advance

You can use the BADI: EXEC_METHODCALL_PPF for this. Use the piece of code below to get the guid, and then you can use CRM_ORDER_READ to get the partners. After that you can use the FM to send mails(Dont' remember the name right now) to send mails to all the partners. Hope this will help.

Suddendly (no external shock) Thunderbird stopped finding the address book, but it finds the right addresses when sending a mail with a name existing in the Boo

The phrase is all what happens. If ask for the address of, say, Joe (existing in the book), it gives nothing. If I write an e-mail message to Joe, Thunderbird inserts the correct address to Joe, and if I send it, it goes correctly. The Address book looks "strange" its content (nearly empty) does not correspond to what it was. I am working in Linux Mint 17.1 with great satisfaction fo the rest.
Thanks for helping. Giancarlo.

Thanks for answering,
however I miss what to send you: The address book is missing most of my contacts (they were there, before), but if I send a mail to one of those missing contacts Thunderbird attach the correct address without my intervention: funny. Mau be a virus did that, bu how can I recover the missing address book (hidden somewhere, certainly). I cannot show in a screen copy the facts I describe here. Anyway I enclose the screenshot of the opening of the actual address book. Please ask me any useful question on the above.
Again thank and greetings,
giancarlo.

Ex2010 -Probem with sending internal and external e-mail

Hi
In night we have a problem with time sync on VMWare Host so our Exchange Environment stopped working. Edge server (Ex 2010 SP3 full update) stopped transfer e-mails to mailbox server (Ex 2010 SP3 full update). After time synchronization e-mails were
treansfered to mailbox server. Users was able to send e-mail inside and outside but after 20-40 minutes users cannot send e-mails - between themselves and outside.
I don't see any e-mails in mailbox queues or using get-messagetrackinlog. I sent e-mail to our test e-mail mailbox on gmail and outlook.com. They wrere not be delivered by mailbox server. I can't find it using get-messagetrackinglog or in mailbox qeue.
What was happen? How to solve this problem?

Hi,
Please disable 3rd party AVs for a little while as Ed mentioned.
Also check whether there is any related error message in App Log.

Send SAP-Mail by external app with SAP Mail-Interface

Hi!
I need to send a SAP Mail from a third party application. I found a way to send a mail without interface using functions like "so_new_document_att_send_api1" or "so_object_send". But what I need is a function which shows a SAPGui with an interface like in SO01 where the user can change the subject or the message and of course I need to initialize some fields like subject and I need to add an attachment (SAP BO -> a document).
Thanks for any answer,

I can receive e-mails, but can't send them from external account

I have my school e-mail account attached to my iPhone. I can receive e-mails without a problem, but whenever I try to send e-mail to someone outside the .edu server, I receive the error message: "The server rejected one of the recipient's addresses. The message has been placed in your outbox." How can I fix this problem? Thank you for your help!

This indicates the account's SMTP server is not authenticated.
Most, if not all internet service providers block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of the ISP's network or not provided by the ISP being used for your internet connection at the time unless the SMTP server is authenticated. When connected to a cell phone carrier's cellular network for internet access is no exception. Does this occur when connected to the school's wi-fi network in addition when connected to AT&T's cellular network?

Sending e-mail to external addresses from business activities

Hi Experts,
Im customizing CRM 5.0 and I want to send e-mails to other employees, when Im maintaining a business activity.
These employees can have no SAP user, so I need this e-mail to go to the address maintained in BP transaction (e.g. alda.lobato@enterprisessname.net).
So, I tried to customize in trx. CRMC_ACTION_CONF, the following data / conditions:
Tab Overview "Partner Determination"
- Partner Function: 00000014
- Description: Employee Responsible
- Partner Number: blank
Tab Processing Details "Details of Selected Processing" "Recipient(s)"
- Recipient Type: U Internet address
- Address: blank
- Archive Mode: 1 Mail Only
However, all the e-mails remain to being sent to the Employee Business Workplace (trx. SBWP), as we were sending the email to his SAP user.
Please advise.
Many thanks.
Alda Lobato

Hi Patrik,
First of all, thanks for your quick answer.
I maintained the Email address in Communication area (as already maintained) and in Address-Independent Communication area, but the Emails remain to being sent to Employee Business Workplace (trx. SBWP).
The Standard Address area that you indicated, only have the fields Street/House number, Postal code/City, Country, Region and Time zone - I dont have the field Email address so I figured out that you talking about the Address-Independent Communication area.
After this, I did another test, which was maintaining the Email address only in Address-Independent Communication area. When I sent the Email through the business activity, appears the error message Action could not be successfully executed.
This mean that the Email address must be maintained in Communication area but it seems that independently the Email address maintained here, the Email is always sent to Employee Business Workplace.
Please advise.
Many thanks,
Alda Lobato

Error while sending a mail using UTP_MAIL package in Oracle 10g

Hi,
We are using UTP_MAIL package to send a mail from Oracle 10g.We have follwed the following steps ...
SQL> connect sys/password as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> @$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlmail.sql
Package created.
Synonym created.
SQL> @$ORACLE_HOME /rdbms/admin/prvtmail.plb

Now we try the code
begin
utl_mail.send(

We also tried connecting to the mail server through telnet .But it is not getting connected..
Please help us to solve the issue.

From your own posting you may have the clue, if you try to access your mail server through telnet and it is not successful, it means the service is down or there are networking issues.
On pre 10gR2 versions there was a bug 4083461.8. It could affect you if you are on 10gR1
"Bug 4083461 - UTL_SMTP.OPEN_CONNECTION in shared server fails with ORA-29278 Doc ID: Note:4083461.8"
This was fixed on 10gR2 base and on 9.2.0.8.0
