Email Connectivity in SAP Netweaver Portal

Tuesday, January 29, 2008

Sending Emails from the Portal is a key functionality for Collaboration and certain KM services. Below is a step by step configuration of Email in Portal.

Create the system Object for the Microsoft Exchange Server














Use the SMTP server address












Create the Alias for the system object



















Configure the email service

System Administration > System Configuration > Content Management > Global Services > Mailing Services > check for the tick sign in the Active section.















Creating an Email Transport


System Administration > System Configuration > Collaboration > Transports















System Administration > System Configuration > Collaboration > Transports > Mail Transport > Click New > use the SMTP address











Make sure you have the collaboration link activated on the portal to test this functionality.





















Check your email for the response..










I hope the above configuration was simple enough....
