Mail sender and receiver scenario

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I want to create one MAIL-MAIL scenario,in which I want to send mail message from one mail server and receive the transferred massage in same mail server.

But I am confused regarding XI's inbound and outbound message for this scenario.

What should be my outbound and inbound message type in this scenario?(if i want just to send one line from my mail)

And who will trigger this mail transfer?Do I need to create some settings on mail server?

please help me.

Hi Sweta,

Guess you can use that as your message type. Just do a dummy mapping of the same message type as your source and target.

Hi Michal,

>>it will have to look the same as your XML message that you will send via mail

Can you elaborate on this?

Means will it refer to the mail content in my my email?

bcoz I searched on help.sap i got following payload format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<ns:Mail xmlns:ns="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">

<Subject>Subject</Subject>

<From>namea@company.com</From>

<To>nameb@company.com</To>

<Reply_To />

<Content_Type>text/plain</Content_Type>

<Content>

This is the content.

</Content>

</ns:Mail>

Please help me.

Hi,

This format will be for your Target Side.

Your source side / sender mail should have its content as an XML and your datatype for the sender side should be of the format of your XML mail.

Hi,

>>>>What should be my outbound and inbound message type in this scenario?(if i want just to send one line from my mail)

it will have to look the same as your XML message that you will send via mail

>>>And who will trigger this mail transfer?

XI will pool the mailbox and if there are any mails it will take it to the integration engine for processing

>>>Do I need to create some settings on mail server?

no

Regards,
