17.10.8 Mail Content Sent as Attachments

Problem When users receive mail in WebCenter Portal applications, message content is shown as an attachment named content.html rather than within the message body. This can occur if the mail server is running Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 and the Update Rollup 3 for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 is not yet installed. Solution Download and install Update Rollup 3 for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 which fixes this issue.

Consequently, users receive timely notice of the changes that affect their subscribed services and objects from their selected messaging channels. Notifications administration provides a means of creating and, potentially, enforcing application-wide defaults for application-level subscriptions and specifying a connection type that identifies the server that will handle notification delivery. This chapter steps through the process of performing these administrative tasks and provides information about how to set and get Notifications messaging configuration details using WLST commands. Always use the Fusion Middleware Control or WLST command-line tool to review and configure back-end services for WebCenter applications. Any changes you make to WebCenter applications, post deployment, are stored in MDS metadata store as customizations. See Section 1.3.5, WebCenter Configuration Considerations. This chapter includes the following sections: ■ Section 18.1, Setting Up Default Subscription Preferences ■ Section 18.2, Setting Up a Notifications Connection Type ■ Section 18.3, Creating and Applying Custom Notification Templates ■ Section 18.4, Testing the Notifications Connection ■ Section 18.5, Troubleshooting Issues with Notifications See Also: For more information, see the section, What You Should Know About Subscriptions and Notifications, in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Users Guide for Oracle WebCenter. Note: Most changes you make to WebCenter services configuration, through Fusion Middleware Control or using WLST, are not dynamic. For your changes to take effect, you must restart the managed server on which the WebCenter application is deployed. See Section 8.2, Starting and Stopping Managed Servers for WebCenter Application Deployments.
