SMTP Plug-In Download Location

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I tried to setup SMTP Auto Reaction.

The document and SAP Note 455140 mentioned about SMTP Plug-In

I tried to locate the Plug-In in the SAP kernel (/sapmnt/<SID>/exe ) but could not find it.

Now I am going to download the Plug-In from SAP Service Marketplace but unsuccessful to locate it.

Would you please let me know where the location to download it?

Thanks!

Regards,

Hi,

Which SAP product and release do you use ?

Whith modern enough systems (netweaver based) there is no plug-in to download.

SMTP is natively supported by the ICM (icman.exe from the standard kernel).

Olivier is correct... If you vertion is R/3 4.7 or higher you don't need the plug-in.

Thank you for your answers.

Where do you find this information from?

It's funny, I looked into SAP Netweaver 7 Help but it still mentions about SMTP Plug-In

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/af/73563c1e734f0fe10000000a114084/content.htm

But anyway, thanks again. I will try to setup the Auto Reaction Mail with the remaining steps.

Hi,

In the help link you refer to, SMTP plug-in is just an other word for ICM with SMTP activated.

It tells

>The kernel of the SAP Web Application Server supports SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). This enables e-mail exchange >between the SAP system and each SMTP mail server, without having to use additional external components.

There must be an OSS note telling that the external plug-in is obsolete but I can assure you that I have at least 6 productive Abap netweaver 7.0 based systems sending emails with just the standard icman.exe.
