Send e-mails

[Former Member]

Hi. I'm using the function SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 for sending e-mails. In this function, the sender is the user who had been logged at the moment of send the e-mail.

I want to know if i could change this sender for another, to always send e-mails from the same sender, without care the logged user.

Thanks.

Hi,

the sender address can be changed via parameter SENDER_ADDRESS.

It is set to sy-uname (user who is running the program) by default, but I think you can change it to any user...

hi,

even u can send mail using SO_OBJECT_SEND function module. In this Function Module if we change the FORWARDER = user name which you want to put.

This solves ur problem.

[former_member156446]

if you can maintain a Ztable of user names and the email id.. and code in such a way to pick sender from that table and receivers also in it.. you can give access to end user to maintain that table using SM30.

Hi Fiorella,

i don't think it's possible do achieve this with that function module. But instead of SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 you could use function module SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1. It has a import parameter SENDER_ADDRESS which supplies the sending user.

Hope this helps!
