The kernel of the SAP Web Application Server supports SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). This enables e-mail exchange between the SAP system and each SMTP mail server, without having to use additional external components. The SAP system sends the outbound e-mails to a separate mail server, whilst the e-mails in the inbound direction can be received by any number of mail servers. Setting the Profile Parameters (Transaction RZ10) The following profile parameters have to be configured. The placeholder<*>stands for the sequence number (starting at zero) of frequently occurring parameters. icm/server_port_<*> = PROT=SMTP,PORT=8025 Parameter icm/server_port_<*> opens a TCP/IP port for receiving mails through the SMTP plug-in. <port>describes the number of the port that is to be used. The port cannot yet be used by another program on this host. is/SMTP/virt_host_<*> = <host>:<port>,<port>,...; This parameter defines avirtual mail host for receiving mails. If all incoming mails (including status notifications) are to be received and processed by one single client of the SAP system, this parameter is not required. In this instance, is/SMTP/virt_host_0 = *:*;is used by default. If multiple clients are to be used as recipients, a virtual host has to be created for each of these clients.<host>describes the name of the host to which the incoming mails are addressed. You can enter* here if the mails are to be sent independently of the host being addressed.<port>describes the number of the port to which the incoming mails are addressed. rdisp/start_icman TRUE icm/server_port_0 PROT=HTTP,PORT=1080 icm/server_port_1 PROT=HTTPS,PORT=1443 icm/server_port_2 PROT=SMTP,PORT=25000,TIMEOUT=180 icm/server_port_3 PROT=SMTP,PORT=25001,TIMEOUT=180 is/SMTP/virt_host_0 *:25000; is/SMTP/virt_host_1 *:25001; icm/host_name_full icadvw02 Validate these parameters with transaction SMICM Goto Parameters Display. User Administration (Transaction SU01) mailadm Service userYou have to create a service user for p rocessing incoming mails in every SAP system client in which you want to receive mails (or status notifications). Call transaction SU01 to create a user with type Service and assign the profile S_A.SCON to this user. User addresses
