Telnet can also be used under Windows (see the [Microsoft KB article|http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Telnet-frequently-asked-questions] about it).
that's quite interesting info and it takes me some steps to the goal, but I need to get the e-mails at the business workplace where they don't show up - even if I send them from the very same station/system. There must be something else I haven't covered yet sigh
Then there still isn't something configured alright. I know, it can be a pain to get it working from end-to-end, since there are a lot of things that can get in the way.
You can perform a simple test on the Operating System the SAP system resides on to see if the SAP system is capable of receiving inbound emails. It should look something like this:
telnet [hostname] [SAP SMTP port]
helo [IP-address of the server]
mail from:<your_email_address@your_email_domain>
rcpt to:<your_email_address_in_the_SAP_system>
data
From: your_email_address@your_email_domain
To: your_email_address_in_the_SAP_system
Subject: Test
Hello Test
.
quit
The email should be visible in the inbox in SAP Business Workplace of the recipient user.
Please have a look at [this blog|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/795] [original link is broken][original link is broken][original link is broken];. It's very helpful.
