I had similar problem and I reported this in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1699. Fix is in SVN now. Problem should go away if you update to latest revision.

Hi

I am having problems with sendEmailToContactList.

My operating system is CentOs.

As I understand it this runs an Async service to send the emails.  The problem 
I have is that I never see the emails being sent.

The sendEmailToContactList service runs and creates entries in 
COMMUNICATION_EVENT and JOB_SAND_BOX  table.

The service then seems to assume that all is well and runs 
setCommunicationEventComplete.

I have run sendEmail service from webtools and this sends emails succesfully so 
I have inferred my email is configured properly.

I'm at a loss to understand how an asynchronous service operates i.e. what is 
the workflow and what service picks up the job and runs it (is it JobPoller?)

The JobSandBox shows all the jobs as finished but I'm not fully clear n what 
this means.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Alan Halley

Hi Raj,

In the marketing app click on contact list, then find your list, then
click on Comm Events and then Create New Contact List Comm Event should
land you here:
https://demo.hotwaxmedia.com/marketing/control/EditContactListCommEvent?contactListId=9000&DONE_PAGE=/marketing/control/ListContactList
based on the trunk demo server.

Set your from details and party roles (maybe N/A), fill your subject and
content and click save.

When you're happy with it change the status to "In-Progress" and click
save again. The comm events should then start to trigger and the email
flow, although you'll want to test it on a small list to start with. If
the list is clean and processes through OK the status should
automatically change to "Complete" when it is done but if there are
badly formatted email addresses that can stick the status and you will
need to manually mark as complete but you can review the logs to find
the errors.

Hi,

I have created Announcement mailing list and now customers are
subscribing to this list. I want to send periodic email (Communication
Event) to the member of contact list. I searched on Google, Wiki and
mailing list archive but did not find any definite solution on sending
mails to the contact list subscribers..

Does such functionality exist in Ofbiz? If yes, can some one give a
small hint on how to achieve this?

Thanks,

Raj Saini
