Hola Pedro,

Basically Gmail require username and password authentication. SAP does not have this capability and requires that the IP address of your system is populated in the Relay Agent of the SMTP server so mails coming from SAP are trusted and no authentication is needed.

So the answer is No.

Hi,

the smtp.gmail.com requires an authentication, which is not supported by the SAP system.So this scenario cannot work.

Hi,

The scenario is possible but is less straight forward. You will have to install an SMTP relay software which is able to connect and to authenticate on gmail smtp server. A kind of "SMTP re verse proxy".

SAP ECC --> SMTP relay with authentication --> GMAIL

Hi,

You should allow in your mail server to external mails. Check with your system administrator.

hello Pedro

If you see in SCOT it looks for SMTP FQDN with port information.

If you have those details of the server and your firewall access list allows you to access external SMTP it should work.
