ActiveVOS Server Console Help
An email service provides a way for a BPEL process to send email messages. The messages are routed from the mail server and username you configure on the Email Service page.
Any BPEL process that implements email-based activities imports the WSDL provided with the ActiveVOS Designer product. The name of the WSDL is email.wsdl. Refer to the ActiveVOS Designer documentation for details about this WSDL. BPEL for People developers can add email reminders to the People activity tasks they create without specifically importing this WSDL.
As an example of using email, a BPEL process can be triggered to send an email to an administrator when other running processes are suspended on an uncaught fault.
Recipients of an email may reply to the username you add on this page.
View and update email service settings as shown in the following table.
|
Enable |
Add a checkmark to use the email service. Initially the service is disabled since it is not configured and ready for use. Configure the remaining settings, and then enable the service. |
|
Host |
Enter the email server’s DNS name such as mail.my-domain-name.com or IP address such as 192.168.1.1. |
|
Port |
Enter the port to use for communications between the ActiveVOS server and the email server. The default value is 25. |
|
From Address |
Add the email address that appears in the FROM
field of an email. For example, |
|
Username |
Enter the name used to login to your email server, usually the account name. This name is the sender of all email sent in BPEL processes. For example, ActiveVOS.notification@my-domain-name.com. |
|
Password |
Enter the password for the above email address, and confirm it. |
Testing the Current Configuration
