<p>I'm working on a workflow in SharePoint Designer from a list, and I want to be able to create a folder in a document library as one of the steps in the workflow.  Since there is no &quot;Create Folder&quot; action, I enabled incoming mail on a document library, and have this email address as the &quot;to field&quot; in the send mail action in the workflow.  However, the email is not getting through to the doucment library and my folders are not getting created. </p> <p>I know that the send mail action is working as I am able to send mail to myself from the workflow and alerts from SharePoint are also working.  I had an issue with McAfee blocking outgoing email because it throught it was a mass email worm, and I corrected that.  I also tried to create a user in AD that had the same email address as the document library, because I read that many people had success when they use an object in the &quot;to field&quot; as opposed to an email address.  The &quot;Drop&quot; folder in the MailRoot Directory appears to recieve the email, but does not route it to the document library to create the folder. </p> <p>Any ideas how to get the send mail action from the workflow to reach the document library or a better way to create folders via  SharePoint Designer workflow.</p> <p>Thanks!</p>© 2009 Microsoft Corporation.
