Before using the Internet port, you must define a SAPconnect node for the address type INT which is to be used for sending mails. The node also controls whether you must specify if the messages are sent via the Microsoft Exchange Server or the Internet Mail Gateway.

The program for retrieving mails, the SAPconnect Send process, must also be scheduled.

When sending via the SAP Internet Mail Gateway: You must have configured the Gateway. For more information see the documentation Configuring the Internet Mail Gateway .

1. Call the SAPconnect Administration by choosing Tools ® Business Communication ® Communication ® SAPconnect.

A tree containing the nodes arranged according to the address type which they support is displayed.

2. If necessary, you can check by choosing View ® Routing, whether a node already exists for the address type INT (Internet).
3. You can change existing nodes via or insert new ones via . The following parameters are important:

· RFC Destination

Using the RFC destination you define the machine on which the program, either the MS Exchange Server (via the SAP Exchange Connector) or the SAP Internet Mail Gateway, is started.

· Address area for address type INT

The more specific this entry, the fewer the addresses are handled via the corresponding node.



The node KNOT1 supports the address area *sap-ag.de, the node KNOT2 supports the area *C11.sap-ag.de, where C11 is an R/3 System. If an e-mail is sent to <username>@C11.sap-ag.de, KNOT2 is used.

· Supported format for address type INT

Here you must specify the document type R3I (Internet IDocs) or * (all formats).

4. Scheduling the Send Process as a Background Job.
