File to Mail Scenario - Need help

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am trying a simple file to mail scenario in which i am using following data types .

Source datatype -

Scr_File_DT

-- Root

-

---

Material_no

-

---

Plant

Target datatype -

Tgt_Mail_DT

--Content

In the message mapping i am concatenating material_no and plant and mapping it to content.

The receiver mail adapter parameters are as follows -

Transport protocol - SMTP

Message Protocol - XIPAYLOAD

URL: smtp://gmail.com

Configure User Authentication: X (Check box is selected)

Authentication Method: Plain (from drop-down box)

User: xyz@gmail.com

Password: ****

from: mail address

to: mail address

subject : test mail.

Just wanted to confirm whether these settings are correct or not? Because i am not getting the mail in my mailbox.

Can anyone please help me on this.

Also are there any other settings required for using mail adapter ?

Thanks.

Hi,

does your XI have a connection to the internet?

otherwise it will not be able to connect to your smtp server

and it will not send the e-mail

BTW

have a look at adapter monitoring/channel monitoring

in RWB to see the error (if you have any)

Thanks everyone for the quick reply.

I checked the RWB and i am getting "UnknownHostException" error.

Can anyone guide me how to give the URL in receiver mail adapter.

Hi,

Get the local SMTP server IP address.

smtp://<IP address>

Have you checked the message monitor from the Runtime Workbench ?

From the Runtime Workbench you will be able to see the message from "Adapter Engine" persistance layer and the related log.
