Configuration Profile 

Use

The SAP Internet Mail Gateway configuration profile contains the logon data of the R/3 System and of the mailing program. Programs Mlsomail and Mlunxsnd read the required information from the configuration profile in order to set up the RFC connection to the R/3 System and in order to call up the sendmail program. You create the configuration profile with program Mlsomadm and it is then stored in coded form. The path and profile name must be specified in the Environment variable GWCONFIG .

Features

The configuration profile must contain the following information:

Field

Description

Example

Client

Client in the R/3 System, in which the Internet messages are received

001

User name

RFC user name with which the SAP Internet Mail Gateway registers with the R/3 System.

Mlsomail_RFC

Password

RFC user password

Init

Logon language

one of the logon languages used

E

System name

Logical name of the R/3 System, in which the Internet messages are received

C11

Load balancing

For Y, load balancing is used, for N, you must enter a specific application server

Y

Message server

with load balancing

Name of the message server for the relevant R/3 System

If load balancing is to be used, the message server port is configured in File/etc/services (for example with the entry sapmsc11 3601/tcp)

hs0102

Login group

with load balancing

Name for the login group

Public

Host name

(without load balancing)

Name of the R/3 application server, with which the SAP Internet Mail Gateway registers

  

System number

(without load balancing)

Two-character number of the R/3 System on the application server

  

Gateway host name

(without load balancing)

Name of the host on which the SAP gateway runs; usually the name of the R/3 application server

  

Gateway service

(without load balancing)

Name of the SAP Gateway service; usually in /etc/services. As a rule, you do not need to make an entry here. The system uses the default sapgwXX, where XX stands for the system number.

  

Use SAProuter

Use the SAProuter as the proxy, if you protect access to your systems with a firewall. The SAProuter is used for Y, but not for N.

N

SAProuter string

(with SAProuter)

The SAProuter string describes the link (for example /H/mysaprouter/S/3299) without specifying the message server, application server or gateway host.

  

Sendmail command

Command line for calling the sendmail program from the SAP Internet Mail Gateway. You must enter the complete path. As default, no command options are required; however, we highly recommend the options -i, -t and -f<SENDER_ADDRESS> .

/usr/lib/ sendmail -i -t -f <SENDER_ADDRESS>

Do not replace the expression <SENDER_ADDRESS> when entering the sendmail command. The sender is assigned later by the program.

Activities

You create the configuration profile, in which you answer questions which the program Mlsomadm poses.
