Question

James Mail Server Integration With Windchill

Hi All,

I've installed Windchill 10.2 M030 in test machine and would like to integrate windchill with James Mail Server.

So, for that I've downloaded and configured James Mail(Apache James 2.3.2)  by adding some users of my domain.

After this, set below property through xconfmanager in Windchill shell

xconfmanager -t codebase/wt.properties -s wt.mail.malhost=plm.adroitecinfo.com:25

(plm.adroitecinfo.com is  host name of my server)

Now, I'm trying to send a sample document from my Windchill to one user which I've already added while configuring James, but unable to get any mail.

Note: I'm using Mozilla Thunderbird as mail client in my Windchill test server.

As I'm trying this for first time, I need suggestions to overcome this problem.

Kindly request you to help me out.

Thanks In Advance

You have a typo: "malhost" vs. "mailhost" in your xconfmanager line.

Otherwise Windchill doesn't care about which mail server you use -- as long as it supports SMTP and you configure Windchill to send mail its way.

[Yes, with newer releases one can handle "smpts" / TSL / SSL as well, so, yes, one can send mail via gmail or the like -- assuming your IT department isn't blocking gmail, which they probably are.]

I am just wondering from which release onwards we do have TLS support?

I am not sure exactly.  I know the process is simply to add the normal JavaMail properties required to wt.properties, but I don't recall when that started working.  I believe it was in some MOR, not an initial release, and probably some MOR of 10.1, but I'm really not sure.
