Email Configuration

Email Configuration

First we have to make an entry in MSGTYPES table in our database.

In MSGTYPES table we have to enter

For example:

Name – SendEmail (Name of the new Mesgtype)

ViewName – SendEmailView (Name of the View for sending EMAIL)

Description – SendEmail

Once the table entry is done then logon to ADMIN console of WCS.

Click on Configuration  Transports

Click on Email link

SMTP Configuration

To configure Message type to send EMAIL: To configuration >> Message Types

Create New Message Type:

Message Type : You will select the message type from drop down, check for name which you have entered in Database in first step: (here SendEmail)

Transport : Will be EMAIL

Device Format : Standard Device Format

>>>>> Click on Next >>>>>>

After this configuration from Admin Console then we will write code to send the mail to particular user.

• Register the View (here SendEmailView)

<forward name="SendEmailView/0/-3" path="/MyNewView.jsp" className="com.ibm.commerce.struts.ECActionForward">

<set-property property="resourceClassName" value="com.ibm.commerce.command.HttpForwardViewCommandImpl"/>

<set-property property="interfaceName" value="com.ibm.commerce.messaging.viewcommands.MessagingViewCommand"/>

<set-property property="implClassName" value="com.ibm.commerce.messaging.viewcommands.MessagingViewCommandImpl"/>

<set-property property="direct" value="true"/>

</forward>

<action path="/SendEmailView" type="com.ibm.commerce.struts.BaseAction">

Code to be placed in java

==================================================================================

String strMethodName = "SendEmail";

SendMsgCmd cmdSendMsg = (SendMsgCmd)CommandFactory.createCommand("com.ibm.commerce.messaging.commands.SendMsgCmd", getStoreId());

cmdSendMsg.setMsgType("SendEmail"); // Get the details of Registered Message Type

cmdSendMsg.setCommandContext(getCommandContext()); // set the command context

cmdSendMsg.setStoreID(commandContext.getStoreId());

cmdSendMsg.setConfigData("sender","harpreetsinghdelhi@gmail.com"); // Sender’s Email

cmdSendMsg.setConfigData("recipient","harpreetsinghdelhi@gmail.com"); //receiver’s Email

cmdSendMsg.setConfigData("subject","Test Mail"); // Subject Name

cmdSendMsg.compose(null,getCommandContext(),getRequestProperties()); // composing Mail

cmdSendMsg.sendImmediate(); // Executing Mail

If we want to send some dynamic values to a JSP, we can achieve by using Typed Properties.

WE can place all the properties using Typedproperty class, and then we can fetch all those properties in a JSP which we have registered against the Message Type.

We can send the Typed properties or else we can also send the whole request object also while composing

cmdSendMsg.compose(null,getCommandContext(),TypedPropertyObj); // composing Mail
