Hi All,

Suppose I want to pick file from receive location and send it as attchment to some e-mail.

Please advice how to do that.  when I try to configure SMTP send port, it only accepts static file names.

I can have any file as an input to receive location.

Please help as this is urgent,.

Answer 1

Hi

You can do following,

• create a receive port to get the file
• create a smtp send port, set the filter property to BTS.receive port name = name of the receive port which you have created in above step
• Set the pipeline of SMTP send port to MIME/SMIME encoder.
• Set the SMTP Server IP and if required propert credentials on the SMTP send port in the properties.
• try to test. I tshould work fine.
• Also you would need to make sure if the BizTalk server is allowed to send emails using the SMTP server, Pls consult your SMTP admin regarding this.
• Make sure antivirus on the BizTalk host is not blocking the "mass emailing" , You might need to have a word with Antivirus Admin.

I hope it helps!

For more infromation please refer this  and about using SMIME/MIME pipeline settings

Hi Naushad,

Thanks for your reply.

Do you mean to say create a pipeline with MIMS/SMIME Encoder.

Are there any properties we need to set?

Answer 3

Yes, I think you would need to set below property:

Send body part as attachment

Thanks

Answer 4

I am able to send a mail through orchestration with Static output file name.

1) i want to set SMTP properties using Receive pipeline copponent and preserve input file name.

2) just use MIME decoder to send a mail.

Any other way ? If anything please suggest with samples.

Answer 5

Hi

You can use dynamic send port and set SMTP properties from Orchestrations.
