working with e-mail alerts

[John Harvey]

Hello,

Does anyone here use e-mail alerts in Quovadx?  I have a script set up on a couple test threads and I have some occurances where alerts work, but I’m finding that my alerts will send to some e-mail addresses but not others.  For instance, I can get an alert within my hospitals internal mail system (called MOX which is rarely used anymore), and I can get an alert to send to my MSN junk mail folder, but I can’t get them anywhere else (i.e. helpdesk, my work e-mail address, alpha-numeric pagers).

I know the e-mails are hitting the mail server (third arguement) and sometimes the e-mail address (second arguement), so the script itself works, I just can’t get it to send to the e-mail addresses which are most important.

Below is the script:

proc send_email_message {recipient email_server subject body} {

   package require smtp

   package require mime

   set token [mime::initialize -canonical text/plain -string $body]

   mime::setheader $token Subject $subject

   smtp::sendmessage $token -recipients $recipient -servers $email_server

   mime::finalize $token

}

thanks!

Your Mail Admin has Anonymous Forwarding disabled as he should.  This means to send mail outside of your domain you will have to log into the mail server with a good login/password

See the SMTP RFC.
