Stephen,

Well....

If your using Content Templates as part of your Notification actions
then you should be able to make the body of the email look like an XML
document, or at least a well formed XML element. However, due to the
very vague description I am not sure that is really what your after.

Basically you would be creating a "txt" content template that makes a
string that would be "XML Compliant". You might also need to properly
protect content of the fields with a few REPLACE() methods too. (But
that could still be done in workflow prior to the notification and
maybe use display only fields if needed.)

However, I am not sure it is worth the effort. :)


If the customer really wants "XML messaging" then I would suggest you
tell them to get some "skin in the game" and give you a WebService to
call to pass the "notification" to. This would skip the whole SMTP
layer and the communication would be in real time. This would also
require that they give you access to the WebService that you can add a
filter action that consumes their Web Service. It should be less
workflow for you to add to know when to call that WebService and they
get the XML in a clean, parsed way to process however they want to.

HTH.

Hey all,

Is it possible to configure something (sorry for the vague-ness, not really
up on email tech), either AR Email engine, Linux sendmail, etc. so that the
outgoing email from the Remedy system is formatted as XML.

Later
