Hi Carsten, I have not implemented it yet, but I had to think about it once.
You need to use the MCA (for Mail Condition Action) mechanism. Look in smcas_test.xml for a simple example. BJ who uses MCA, recommend to put Apache James in front and I also think it's a good idea to have more filter power (spam, etc.) Jacques From: "Carsten Schinzer" <[email protected]>
Hello, I am asked to integrate with a mailing mechanism for order fulfillment, ie. Supplier wants mails sent when orders are being confirmed with OBFiz. At the same time I will be getting a nightly confirmation and status information from Supplier over all pending orders by mail as an attachment. While I have ideas for full automation about the former (define ECA, write service, send mail) I am not so sure about the latter. In principle I would follow the same logic, ie. define ECA, store file attachment, process it and update the orders. The questions I would have are as follows:: - I would use a OFBiz-managed mail account to receive mail; how do I integrate OFBiz with my mailing architecture for mail reception ? Probably some config somewhere in the framework? - How can I use the mail-received event and translate to an ECA ? - How do I detach the file attachment, store it and process it ? Are all required tools on board with OFBiz? If anyone has made relevant experience or has done the same thing already, I would appreciate some hints. Thanks & regards Carsten
