IDOC --> MAIL - DAT Extension, but XML Extension expected

[former_member604483]

Hello everyone,

we have an IDOC--> MAIL scenario. In our DEV-System we receive the attachment with the extension

XML

. This is exactly what we want.
In our CONS-System we receive the attachment with the extension

DAT

.

But we have the same settings in both systems.

I can not find any setting in the mail adapter which is responsible for this. Also in help.sap.com I can't anything about it. I found in this forum the possibility to use dynamic configuration. But this isn't the way I want to go, because in the DEV System it works fine.

Where can I determine the extension?

Thanks for your help!

Regards,

Jürgen

Check for the communication channel, if you have added a module in the module chain in DEV, and the same is missing in CONS.

Hello Stefan,

thanks very much for your help.

You are right, the modules were different. The working mail-adapter has the value

localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean

.
the other:

sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean

. I changed the value

sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean

to

localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean

, but we receive also an attachment with the extension "DAT".

I have 2 scenarios in the DEV with the same settings ( value

localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean

under module). One scenario works fine, I receive "XML". The other scenario doesn't work, I receive "DAT"

Any idea, again?

regards,

Jürgen

Ups- the checkbox "Keep Attachments" was not selected.

Now it works fine.

I will check the other systems. If it works, I will close this issue.

Stefan, thanks very much!
