Unable to send mails from SCOT

[Former Member]

Dear Gurus,

we need to configure outbound mails from SAP to our mail server.

I did everything as per the note, when i tested sending the mail, the status is waiting.

in SOST it is observed the status is " wait for communication service", mails are not being sent to target

server from SAP.

Could you please let me know how can i solve this issue.

Thanks and Regards

Hi

One common missing parameter is the default domain (exemple : johndoe.com)

SCOT -> settings -> default domain

check that in your SMTP node :

- the color is green

- the box "node in use" is checked

- SMTP connection is filled with right informations (smtp server address, port)

- 'support adress type' section -> Internet is checked and in the menu 'SET' in 'adress areas' you have a line with '*' value (this means that email can be sent to anyone)

Other check :

- at os level can you reach the SMTP service ?

telnet <server adress> <port>

Hope this will help you
