Workflow emails and IMAP

We've enabled the IMAP server that ships with AIX 5.2 and are able to telnet to port 143 on that server and talk IMAP through it, so we believe it is working.
From Workflow we are able to send out SMTP mails to Outlook, and replies from Outlook find their way to the mail box of the AIX user configured in the Workflow Mailer.
But the mails are not picked up from there and processed in Financials (the notification IDs are visible as 'OPEN' and 'SENT' in WF_NOTIFICATIONS).
We have created files under the AIX user's home directory called 'process' and 'discard' to which the user has write permissions and have supplied these as the relevant folders in the 'Email Processing' section for Workflow.
Is there anything that we have missed? Anyone else encountered similar problems? Does it surprise you that we've created files when Financials talks in terms of folders?
Any suggestions gratefully accepted!

Make sure your OS folders are real IMAP folders via telnet:
. login wf_username wf_password
. OK Logged in.
l list "" "*"
* LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/" "Trash"
* LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/" "DISCARD"
* LIST (\NoInferiors \Marked) "/" "Sent"
* LIST (\NoInferiors \Marked) "/" "PROCESSED"
* LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/" "INBOX"
l OK List completed.
If they are not there, use the . create command to create them. You probably will want to delete the OS files with the same name first.

I usually prefer to create my IMAP folders in some mail program on the host like evolution, thunderbird, pine, anything that communicates with IMAP. It is also a good idea to check the INBOX and DISCARD folders occasionally for thousands of auto reply messages that will cause the Workflow Mailer process to die.

  • What is POP, POP3, and IMAP When I Setup My Email Account in the HP ePrint App?

    I have done as much research as I can do in regards to setting up the HP ePrint App Email Accounts.  If you do not see your email information listed here, feel free to post it below or contact your internet service provider, phone or email company, or whomever else that might know this. I am certain there are many more that could be added but this is a rather extensive list.  I hope you find what you need to finish setting up your email applications.
    I have noticed information differs from website to website but as I have learned over time, with domain masking and companies buying out other companies, I just researched all the information I could find and that way if one of the hostnames or ports don’t work, then you can continue to view further into this page to see if that information is the same. At that point, if you can’t find what you need here, I would say you have done all that you can do before contacting the appropriate support team for your email information.  
    Most of the links are active and the ones listed below should send you directly the pages I pulled this information from but only a few of them were from the actual support sites themselves (Apple support was vague, as well as Microsoft, Macintosh, and commonly used ISPs). Save yourself some time by searching here first. I hope you find what you need in this one-stop-shop and if you get an email address not listed here please post it below and I will add it to this original document.
    Lastly, as this information is from forum-based and other unofficial websites, I would like to add that this is a copy/paste/edit-for-easy-reading document I created in my spare time. This is a very long document so I do recommend using the search and find quick keys to search for the email you need but the top part of this has definitions as to what servers, ports, and hostnames are and the basic setup in case you need to know what these options are used for and what they mean.
    Below are the most common settings needed to set up most POP3/IMAP Email Clients or Devices:
    The following information below can be found at http://www.swestcom.com/Support/q4.htm
    “What is POP3?
    Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3) is a standard mail protocol used to receive emails from a remote server to a local email client. POP3 allows you to download email messages on your local computer and read them even when you are offline."
    "What is IMAP?
    The Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) is a mail protocol used for accessing email on a remote web server from a local client. IMAP and POP3 are the two most commonly used Internet mail protocols for retrieving emails. Both protocols are supported by all modern email clients and web servers."
    "Main difference between IMAP and POP3:
    The POP3 protocol assumes that there is only one client connected to the mailbox. In contrast, the IMAP protocol allows simultaneous access by multiple clients. IMAP is suitable for you if your mailbox is about to be managed by multiple users."
    "What is SMTP?
    Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is the standard protocol for sending emails across the Internet. SMTP uses TCP port 25 or 2525 and sometimes you can have problems to send your messages in case your ISP has closed port 25 (How to check if port 25 is open?). To determine the SMTP server for a given domain name, the MX (Mail eXchange) should have more information."
    "When setting up:
    POP - choose POP and the incoming server port will default to 110
    IMAP - choose IMAP and the incoming server port will default to 143
    All other settings are the same.
    Username = [email protected]
    Password = the password you set up when you configured your mail box
    Incoming Mail Server = mail.yourdomain.com
    Outgoing Mail Server= smtp.yourdomain.com
    Outgoing Server Requires Authentication (typically found in advanced options or settings)
    Do NOT check "Log on Using Secure Password Authentication"
    Use the same Username and Password as Incoming or select "Use Same Settings as Incoming"
    Outgoing Server Port= 2525 or 587This is subject to change based on the individual preferences of your ISP"
    Note - Substitute your actual domain name for "yourdomain.com" and substitute the first part of your email address for "user."
    Email Ports
    For networks, a port means an endpoint to a logical connection. The port number identifies what type of port it is. Here are the default email ports for:     
    POP3 - port 110
    IMAP - port 143
    SMTP - port 25
    HTTP - port 80
    Secure SMTP (SSMTP) - port 465
    Secure IMAP (IMAP4-SSL) - port 585
    IMAP4 over SSL (IMAPS) - port 993
    Secure POP3 (SSL-POP) - port 995.

    Have you ever wished you could use your AOL email account with something else, something more powerful, something more convenient than AOL, something like Outlook, Windows Mail, Outlook Express, or The Bat!? Thanks to the wonders of IMAP, you can.
    If you set up your AOL email account in any email client capable of IMAP, you can receive and send messages easily. Even the AOL folders — Spam, Saved, Sent Items and your Trash will be there automatically. Of course, you can also use POP to fetch incoming mail in an uncomplicated fashion.
    For instructions on how to assist you with this you can also follow this link: http://email.about.com/od/aoltips/qt/Access_an_AOL_Email_Account_with_any_POP_IMAP_Email_Program.htm
    Set Up POP or IMAP E-Mail on an Android G1 How do I set up POP or IMAP E-Mail on an Android Device?
    From the home screen, tap Applications > Settings > Accounts & sync > Add account > Manual setup.
    On the Incoming settings screen, in the Protocol drop-down menu, select IMAP or POP3. We suggest you select IMAP because it supports more features.
    In the Email address and Username text boxes, enter your full e-mail address, for example [email protected], and then select Next. Your user name is the same as your e-mail address.
    In the Password text box, enter your password.
    In the IMAP server or POP3 server text box, enter your IMAP or POP server name. For information about how to look up the server settings you need to complete this step and other steps in this procedure, see “How do I find the server settings” later in this topic.
    In the Security type drop-down menu and Server port text boxes, specify the POP or IMAP settings that you looked up in step 5, and then tap Next. Your e-mail application will check your IMAP or POP settings.
    On the Outgoing server settings screen, the Login required option should be selected for you, and the Username and Password text boxes should be filled in.
    In the SMTP server text box, enter the SMTP server name you looked up in step 5.
    In the Security type drop down menu and Server port text box, specify the SMTP settings that you located in step 5, and click Next.
    In the Account name, text box, enter a name for your account (for example “Office 365 email” or “Work email”). In the Your name text box, enter the name you want displayed when you send e-mail to others (for example “Tony Smith”), and then select Finish Setup.
    What else do I need to know?
    If your e-mail account is the type that requires registration, you must register it the first time you sign in to Outlook Web App. Connecting to your e-mail account through a mobile phone will fail if you haven't registered your account through Outlook Web App. After you sign in to your account, sign out. Then try to connect using your mobile phone. For more information about how to sign in to your account using Outlook Web App, see How to Sign In to Your E-Mail Using a Web Browser. If you have trouble signing in, see FAQs: Sign-in and Password Issues or contact the person who manages your e-mail account.

    The following information is according to a forum comment at the bottom of this webpage concerning HOTMAIL and mail server settings:
     “As other web based email services, Hotmail is using the HTTP protocol for connecting you to your mailbox. If you want to send and receive Hotmail emails using an email client software, then your software must support Hotmail HTTP access for your email account. Some email clients, such as Outlook Express or Microsoft Outlook, offer builtin support for Hotmail accounts, so you only have to select HTTP when you are asked to select your email account type and select Hotmail as the HTTP Mail Service Provider.”
    Mail Server Settings for Hotmail using the Microsoft Outlook Connector
    If you are using Microsoft Outlook & the Outlook Connector, you can define your Hotmail account just like any regular POP3 email account:
    Hotmail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop3 . live. com  (logon using Secure Password Authentification - SPA, mail server port: 995)
    Hotmail Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) -smtp . live . com (SSL enabled, port 25)
    Additional information from this website has not been confirmed or validated as of yet but it does include additional information or perhaps corrected information. If the above steps do not fix the problem with setting up an email account for the HP Apps then read on:
    Yahoo! Mail Settings
    Yahoo Mail offers standard POP3 access for receiving emails incoming through your Yahoo mailbox, by using your favorite email client software. To setup your email client for working with your Yahoo account, you need to select the POP3 protocol and use the following mail server settings:
    Yahoo Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.mail.yahoo.com (port 110)
    Yahoo Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) - smtp.mail.yahoo.com (port 25)
    POP Yahoo! Mail Plus email server settings
    Yahoo Plus Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com (SSL enabled, port 995)
    Yahoo Plus Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) - plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com (SSL enabled, port 465, use authentication)
    · Google GMail Settings
    The Google GMail service offers email client access for retrieving and sending emails through your Gmail account. However, for security reasons, GMail uses POP3 over an SSL connection, so make sure your email client supports encrypted SSL connections.
    Google Gmail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.gmail.com (SSL enabled, port 995)
    Outgoing Mail Server - use the SMTP mail server address provided by your local ISP or smtp.gmail.com (SSL enabled, port 465)
     MSN Mail Settings
    The MSN email service allows you to use the MSN POP3 and SMTP servers to access your MSN mailbox.
    MSN Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop3.email.msn.com (port 110, using Secure Password Authentication - SPA)
    MSN Outgoing Mail Server - smtp.email.msn.com (select "My outgoing server requires authentication")

    The Lycos Mail Plus service allows you to use POP3 and SMTP servers for accessing your Lycos mailbox.
    Lycos Mail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.mail.lycos.com (port 110)
    Outgoing Mail Server - smtp.mail.lycos.com or use your local ISP SMTP mail server
     AOL Mail Settings
    The AOL email service is a web based system, designed for managing your AOL mailbox via HTTP IMAP access. Unlike Hotmail, you can use any email client to access your AOL mailbox, as long as it supports the IMAP protocol.

    AOL Outgoing Mail Server - smtp.aol.com or use your local ISP SMTP mail server
     Mail.com Mail Settings
    The Mail.com email service allows you to use POP3 and SMTP servers for accessing your Mail.com mailbox.
    Mail.com Mail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop1.mail.com (port 110)
    Outgoing Mail Server - use your local ISP SMTP mail server
     Netscape Internet Service Mail Settings
    The Netscape e-mail system is web-based, which means you can access their e-mail from any Internet connection. Netscape Internet Service also supports AOL® Communicator, Microsoft® Outlook, Microsoft® Outlook Express, and other POP3 e-mail software. The outgoing mail server needs SSL support, so make sure your email client software supports SSL connections over the SMTP protocol.
    Netscape Internet Service Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.3.isp.netscape.com (port 110)
    Netscape Internet Service Outgoing Mail Server - smtp.isp.netscape.com (port 25, using a secure SSL connection)
    Tiscali Mail Settings
    The Tiscali email service allows you to use POP3 and SMTP servers for accessing your Tiscali mailbox.

  • The Skinny on IMAP vs POP Email and work arounds

         It took me a while to figure out email so I figured I'd share what I've learned so far.  Do feel free to reply with more useful tips for us all if anyone has some.
    First email accounts are either IMAP or POP and the first step was figuring out the difference:
    IMAP
       Mirror of the server
    What is done one place is done everywhere because you are looking at the server.
           Advantage: can access email from multiple devices/locations
           Disadvantage: May have to mark as read individually when adding to a new device
    POP
       Independent of the server
    What is done one place stays that place because you have moved it from the server.
            Advantage: once it's delivered the mail can be viewed offline
            Disadvantage: where ever it is delivered once, the other divices do no have access to the mail
    Think of the server as a huge mailbox as big as a room!
       IMAP
    With IMAP the mail stays in the mailbox until you delete it permenently,
        but once it is deleted it has moved out of the main part of the huge mailbox into the trash can in the room of the huge mailbox (the trash folder settings decide when the trash gets taken out and deleted permenently) when deleted permenently it is no longer in the trash can in the huge mailbox it has been taken out the the dump.
    If you read it then it's like opening the mail but leaving it in the huge mailbox.
    If you move it to another folder then it's like moving it to the desk in the room but still in the mailbox.
       POP
    With POP the mail is taken out of the mailbox and moved to the computer (in the other room)
    Once you request/download your mail it is taken off of the server and whatever is done with the mail the server no longer has access to it
    If you read it (or move it to a folder) it is the same thing as Mom taking the mail out of the huge mailbox and putting it in the car, if Dad checks the mailbox the mail may have been delivered by Dad is not going to find it because it is no longer in the mailbox it is with Mom in the car.
    Here a link that helped me figure it out:
    http://www.office.mvps.org/glossary/pop_imap.html
    So after you decide wether you want to use IMAP or POP which email carrier is which?
    Microsoft Exchange is IMAP
    MobileMe is IMAP
    Yahoo! mail is IMAP
    Hotmail is IMAP
    Gmail is IMAP can be set up as POP
         see here for that:  https://discussions.apple.com/message/8149520#8149520
    ~Most web-based email is IMAP (if it is designed to be accessed via the web by ANY computer it's likely IMAP)
         settings for incomming/outgoing servers:   http://www.emailaddressmanager.com/tips/mail-settings.html
    AOL is POP can be set up as IMAP (origanally intended to be used with only one computer via the ISP)
          see here for that: http://email.about.com/od/aoltips/qt/Access_an_AOL_Email_Account_with_any_POP_IM AP_Email_Program.htm
    Comcast is POP
    Qwest is POP
    Earthlink is POP
    ~Most ISP (internet service providers) email from a cable/internet company of a business specific email is a POP account
    Use this chart HT1277 ( http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1277 ) for contacting your service provider or IT department to acquire the proper settings for your email account!
    Finally, as promised, work around for your email:
        If you only have access to a POP email account and it won't work on your iPhone or want it to act like an IMAP account, then follow these steps~
    1)   Get a free IMAP email account (using Gmail for this example)
    2)  Sign in to your Gmail account
    3)  Click the gear icon in the upper-right
    4)  Select Gmail settings
    5)  Select the Accounts and Import tab
    6)  Under Send mail as, click Add another email address
    7)  In the 'Email address' field, Enter your name and alternate email address (ie the POP address)
    8)  Choose use Gmail's servers to send your mail
    9)  Click Next Step>>
    10) Click Send Verification
                 (Gmail will send a verification message to your alternate email address to confirm that you own it)
    11) Open your other account and click the link in the message Gmail sent
    12) Add your new Gmail account to your iphone
    You will be able to send, receive, reply, forward, delete, and manage folders of your other address through your Gmail address on your phone and it will appear to the recipients as though it came from your other address.

    Allan, I have run into questions in this area recently since I got my iPhone. I have a long time Charter ISP POP email account which I've accessed with Apple Mail. This has worked fine. I also have a Yahoo web based account which I've also used separately.
    Now when I set up my Yahoo account on my iPhone it worked great. But when I set up the Charter account it resulted in an IMAP account with incoming and outgoing servers being mobile.charter.net. Charter website implies that all email accounts on all mobile devices must be set up like this. My question is whether I can, or should, try to set up the account manually as a POP on my iPhone so it will behave similarly to the Charter POP account in my iMac?
    I've run into some conflicts after using my iPhone to access my Charter email. My inbox on my desktop iMac in Apple Mail will give me the message that another client is accessing the email account when I try to get new mail soon after my iPhone has been accessing the Charter account. I've wondered whether this is a conflict between IMAP and POP?
    Confusing. Thanks.

  • IMAP email and MobileMe no longer working on iPhone 4

    Beginning this morning, I cannot get my IMAP mail accounts to be accessed by my iPhone 4 with iOS 4.0.1. It makes the connection to the server, but gets stuck in a loop trying to download messages from the server. It gives up, connects again, has the same problem, and the cycle goes on and on.
    I have talked with my provider and they have changed nothing on their mail servers. And IMAP works fine in my Mac Mail (the latest update, 10.6.4 I think?).
    My Exchange account connects just fine as it always did, and I can connect via POP3 (though I strongly prefer not to so I can properly sync my email across the different clients I access it with over the day).
    Anyone else having a problem? This literally just started out of the blue today.

    I've had this happen in the past due to a corrupted email or enclosure. You might want to try to log into your account from your desktop and delete mail from the server from the last few days, store locally on your desktop, and see if that clears it up though I get the impression you're talking about two different accounts so it's unlikely you would get the same email both places but that's usually been the issue for me.

  • Using workflow to email and fax output documents

    The requirement is that everytime an output is triggered for a document, the document should be emailed and/or faxed to certain contacts that are maintained on the customer master. Currently you can only email or fax to one contact at a time but we would like to do it for multiple contacts.
    Can this be achieved using workflow? I am relatively novice in workflow but would like to implement it if possible.
    The solution we have right now, which works by the way:
    Add a function module in every driver program to extract the contact information and populate a database table
    Run a batch job ever 5 mins that reads the database table and emails/fax using the contact information.
    Am looking for some ideas for a more efficient way of doing it. Thank you.

    yes you can sedn the mail to multiple recipients  by using ythe workflows and even you can attach the Document to the mail as a ATTACHMENT
    by using differnet Fm that are available  just go to se 37 and SAP_WAPI click f4 you will find all the FM that are required.
    Important: You have to use a step ACTIVITY and make it as background step because there is no need of any sort of interaction with the user while determining the Agents and after getting the result  i mean the reposible users  store them ina internal table of type SWHACTOR and
    in the mail step use EXPRESSION and assign these determined agents
    For this you have to bind the Task conatiner elements and workflow conatiner elements ok

  • Performance management workflow appraisee and appraiser name to be passed in email

  • Why all of a sudden am I having difficulty sending Gmail emails? I get a send error. When I run diagnostics there is a SMTP and IMAP account for Gmail and I am not sure how to fix this.

    Why all of a sudden am I having difficulty sending Gmail emails? I get a send error. When I run diagnostics there is a SMTP and IMAP account for Gmail and I am not sure how to fix this.

    Hi jodilynnf,
    When using Connection Doctor to see what is could be causing the issue, look for the red dots to let you know what is wrong. Then all you have to do is correct that information. You can double click on the section that is giving you issue and it will take you there. Most issues could be just password being entered incorrectly. Take a look at the article below to walk you through troubleshooting issues with Mail.

  • I use internode and imap. When the ipad deletes emails it also removes them from the mac. How can I reverse this so the mac is the master and the ipad is the slave?ipa

    I use internode and imap. When the ipad deletes emails it also removes them from the mac. How can I reverse this so the mac is the master and the ipad is the slave?

    Thanks for the info. - I now know that deletion works both ways!! - (unlike POP where emails deleted from the ipad also deleted them from the mac even before I could read them,  whereas emails deleted from the mac were not removed from the ipad!!! - ie. the ipad was the master over the mac - the slave).  Prior to changing to imap I used to transfer all nongarbage emails from inbox to mailboxes before my husband could ask if he could delete emails on his ipad. I have noticed however if you do this in imap, they are removed from the inbox on the ipad as well (this did not happen with POP). So we still have to check but the number is less so we like imap better than POP.
    Thank again

  • N8 and imaps email account

    Hi all.
    I have an N8, and I'm trying to configure an imaps email account.
    My organization use the imap ssl with a self created certificate for sign the connection. The problem is that in N8 there is no way to say to nokia push servers to use that certificate, and thus during the account creation the configuration fail saying to check the servers name.
    Is there any way to have the push mail working?

    there is a messaging forum
    /t5/Messaging-Email-and-Browsing/bd-p/messaging
    so the messaging super geeks might be in there
    i know what you mean. i have a self signed certificate on my server and can't use NM with this either. fortunately i just drop mine down to regular imap and it's all fine (save the huge problems with NM, and push over imap) i guess you can't do that.
    the other option would be to decline the terms of service as you finish setting up the account., this causes the phone to switch back to a regular email client that connects directly with the mail servers rather than via NM.
    there is no push option. but email can be set to retrieve on notify. notify being when it is indicated over an imap idle connection. or you can just set it to retrieve every 5 minutes.
    you are still going to have certificate issues. but they may be manageable.
    There's no dignity in begging for kudos. Do it for the karma.

  • IMAP email and the sent, drafts and trash folders

    I am using Mail 2.1.3 and have set up my accounts to work through IMAP from the server into my account.
    I can send and receive email absolutely fine, however it is not saving any sent emails and it won't save any emails to the draft folder. I have tested from the webmail on the server, the sent email goes into the sent folder on the web, and then I also see it in Mac Mail.
    But if I send an email from Mail, it won't go into the sent folder.
    Any ideas what I need to do to get this working properly? I have been on to the provider and they say it is something to do with my email settings but won't give me any more than that.
    Please help.

    Thanks Fred,
    I had those checked already but it still wasn't working. In the end I found the below link to another post where I needed to put INBOX into the IMAP Path Prefix box in the Advanced section.
    Once this had been done and I sent another message, the sent box from the IMAP account appeared in the Mail sent box and it's all working now.
    You were right with the "Sent Messages" folder, this also appeared after I had done the above step.
    Thanks again.

  • Can i set  the same email account as POP on MacBook and IMAP on iPhone and iPad?

    I got an email account which is currently POP, it was setup on my MacBook, iPhone and iPad. Since POP cannot sync the read email, every time i have to read them on three devices - MacBook, iPhone and iPad, or it shows loads of unread mails.
    I heard IMAP can solve this problem, but after set the email account up as IMAP, loads of my emails lost! Luckily most of those emails are restored from Time Machine. IMAP is too dangerous, so i changed back to POP.
    Now i'm still surffering from read emails three times, i wonder anyway to fix this problem? can i set the email account as POP on MacBook and IMAP on iPhone and iPad?
    Many thanks,
    X

    Normally, at least all smartphones I've used, do not delete things from the server. The Email programs on phones know enough not to delete emails you delete on the phone from the email server so you can still get them on your computer. I personally don't need or want all my emails on my phone. It is good to check emails and reply it ones that need a reply right then but otherwise I want them on my computers. Using IMAP on phone/pad may not act the same as POP and may interact with the server differently, deleting email I don't want on my phone from the server.
    I do have one IMAP email address on my phone, Google with Google Mail. All others access the servers with POP.

  • 10.8 client  and 10.6 server email pop and imap problem

    Hi Guys ,
    My problem is 10.8 client and 10.6 server.
    10.6 server have email server running (pop and imap), when i configure same email account (pop) on 10.7 machine  and 10.8 machines , 10.7 machine works , but 10.8 pop does not working
    let me explaing further :
    when i use 10.8 mail application to  setup pop mail account it does not connecting . But  i used the same account to connect imap it connect on 10.8 machine.
    the same mail account connect to another 10.7 machine  with POP and IMAP for testing reason , it works with out any issues
    POP server is running and this email account's users profile enable POP and IMAP mail settings.
    thanks in advance.

    Try checking the Authentication Type for the POP account.  It is located in Mail > Preferences > Accounts > selected account > Advanced
    10.8 tends to use Apple Token.  I think you will need to use a type of MD5 Challenge-Response or Password.
