sending External mail

Former Member — Mon, 11 Jun 2007 14:21:59 GMT

Hi, i have a couple of reports that send notifications via e-mail, and they are working fine, except that the e-mails only get to the SAP inbox of the users... I want the e-mails to go outside of SAP into our exchange server.

Is there a parameter that needs to be set when calling the function that sends the e-mail from ABAP, or is it a Basis problem?

If you need any more details, please tell me.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

These are the FM for sending external email :-

SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1

SAPoffice: Send new document with attachments via RFC

SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1

(In 4.6C only, You can go to SE37 and click the documentation on how to use it. A sample program is provided there.)

SAPoffice: Send new document with attachments via RFC

Note : If you are using FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 then Export Parameter DOCUMENT_DATA-OBJ_DESCR contains the Subject.

SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1

SAPoffice: Send new document

For program click the following link:

I've read the documentation for the FM I'm using: SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1

and it seems i'm doing it right...

I retrieve the users e-mail address and add it to the recievers list, with rec_type set to U.

The e-mail does get sent, but only to the user's inbox in the Business Workplace, and I need it to go all the way to his Outlook inbox.

If i go to the inbox and click the Send button, I type my address from the exchange server and I do recieve it in my Outlook inbox... why isn't this happening automatically?
