SMTP Test Case 46 - Generating a message with Disposition To Notification Options Header

[Nisarg Khandekar]

Can some one please share a MIME sample of  Disposition-To-Notification Options, and Disposition-To-Notification header.

OR share some info on how and where to place this in the SMTP header.

[Nagesh Bashyam]

Please refer to the Direct IG for Delivery Notifications specification.

That is a good place to start.

Hello Nagesh,

I have looked into the following IG for MDN  and also RFC 3798 section 2.1 and 2.2

However, we are unclear on how the Disposition-to-notification options header should be generated.

RFC 3798 states the following:

  Disposition-Notification-Options =
             "Disposition-Notification-Options" ":"
                            disposition-notification-parameters

   disposition-notification-parameters = parameter *(";" parameter)

   parameter = attribute "=" importance "," value *("," value)

   importance = "required" / "optional"

However, if we can get a sample MIME mail with the options header then we can get more clarity.

Thanks

Thanks Sandeep.

[Nisarg Khandekar]

Hello,

Attached is the sample code which we used to send for SMTP Test Case 46. However, the ETT is failing this test case, and the log states the following 

"ERROR: No messages found! Send a message and try again. Please make sure that the vendor email address is entered correctly and matches the email address from which the email is being sent."

We are not sure what are we missing here. Assistance would be really appreciated.

Sample code file is attached.

Thanks

Make sure to enter the 'mail from' address in the 'Vendor Email Address' of the profile window.

Thanks,

Sandeep

[Nisarg Khandekar]

Hello Sandeep,

We are entering the right vendor email under profile. However, the mail is not going to wellfo...@ttpds.sitenv.org. 

Not sure if there is an issue with wellfo...@ttpds.sitenv.org.  

[Nisarg Khandekar]

Are we supposed to install any additional certs for ttpds.sitenv.org?

Make sure you send a plain SMTP email and NOT a direct email. This is not a direct endpoint. Also, can you specify your direct from address so that we can look on our end?

Thanks,

Sandeep

[Nisarg Khandekar]

Our DIRECT from address is lak...@directonc.ehrez.com.

[Sandeep]

As mentioned before, you need to send a plain SMTP email and not a direct email.

[Nisarg Khandekar]

Yes. Now we are sending it from a plain SMTP email.

But are we supposed to send multiple mails back to back before clicking on "Run"? as the user guide says the following "Wait at least 60 seconds from sending the final message (in the series) to allow successful transmission to the ETT endpoint recipient."

Hello,

 

Are you looking at the ‘Log’ or noticing the ‘Retry’ error status?  The test will still fail when sent from a gmail account because the Disposition Notification Header Option is missing.

Now, we are able to pass if we send from GMail with Disposition Notification Header. But we need to support SMTP email from our DIRECT server?

Just to add to the above comment from Lakshmi; we are using Direct Project  (Java Implementation ) on our DIRECT server and we have installed the XD package and we have enabled MDN. 

Is there any additional configuration that we need to do to allow SMTP mails to be send using our server?

Thanks
