Hello Team,

Can someone look into why subject showing Null ? can this be ignored and mark the test case passed ?

Are you sending a subject in your email when you send?

Yes, we are sending subject and reason ( these are mandatory in our system to send referrals).

Looks like you are sending an encrypted direct email. You need to send a SMTP email.

Sai, there is no change in what we are sending since we certified these test cases. it was working before reporting the current issue on 11/13.

It's great that you have an old screenshot. 

If you observe, your old screenshot has a content type of multipart/mixed which means it's an unencrypted SMTP email. Your previous screen shot shows a content type of application/pkcs7-mime indicating encrypted email.

Hi Sai, 

Our technical team is actively assisting clients in resolving issues with encrypted SMTP emails. Based on my understanding of the mechanism:
  • "SMTP Test 8, 14, 18 (Send)" is designed to verify the sending system's ability to transmit emails to the ETT endpoint using the SMTP protocol, STARTTLS, and PLAIN SASL authentication (if enabled).
  • Following the documented steps, we created a new message and sent it to the ETT endpoint recipient, wellf...@ett.healthit.gov.
  • Upon leaving our direct server, the message should be encrypted using the public certificate of wellf...@ett.healthit.gov, then delivered to the recipient's mail server (identified via NS record as ec2-34-235-25-130.compute-1.amazonaws.com).
  • The recipient server should decrypt the message using the private key associated with wellf...@ett.healthit.gov and place it in the inbox.
  • The ETT tool is then expected to analyze the message, providing test result details (e.g., constraints, conformance, contributing factors for Pass/Fail outcomes) as part of the testing artifact.
  • According to the user guide, the Validation Report aggregates all tests from a session, enabling users to view results by profile and executed test cases. It is assumed that the tool scans decrypted messages in plaintext format during this process.
I noticed a discrepancy between previous and current tool behavior. A screenshot from September 17, 2024, displayed raw messages with extracted key header elements like Subject and Content-Type. However, the current tool appears to generate reports using encrypted messages.

Could you confirm if there have been any updates to the ETT tool since then?

Please let me know if additional details are needed. Thanks.

Hello Chloe,

The team has restarted the server, and we are not getting this error. Can you please try again?

Thank you,

Hi Kim,

I tried to reset my password using the "Forgot password?" but never got a new password. Without logging in, we can't test again. Can you help me with it? This is urgent as we need to complete the tests before January 8. Thanks.

Hi Chloe,

Have you checked your spam folder?

Yes. I checked multiple times. Nothing, either. Is there any way you can reset for cw...@max.md directly?

Even though it shows the result "Pass" as below, we still see the subject is null and the content-type is smime.p7m.  It is different with the results in the screenshots of Sep 17, 2024. 

SMTP Test 8, 14, 18 (Send) (result).png
Did my previous understanding of the tool make sense?
  • "SMTP Test 8, 14, 18 (Send)" is designed to verify the sending system's ability to transmit emails to the ETT endpoint using the SMTP protocol, STARTTLS, and PLAIN SASL authentication (if enabled).
  • Following the documented steps, we created a new message and sent it to the ETT endpoint recipient, wellf...@ett.healthit.gov.
  • Upon leaving our direct server, the message should be encrypted using the public certificate of wellf...@ett.healthit.gov, then delivered to the recipient's mail server (identified via NS record as ec2-34-235-25-130.compute-1.amazonaws.com).

  • The ETT tool is then expected to analyze the message, providing test result details (e.g., constraints, conformance, contributing factors for Pass/Fail outcomes) as part of the testing artifact.
  • According to the user guide, the Validation Report aggregates all tests from a session, enabling users to view results by profile and executed test cases. It is assumed that the tool scans decrypted messages in plaintext format during this process.
Please advise.

SUT needs to connect to the ETT SMTP server using the credentials vendor...@james.healthit.gov / vendortesting123 and send an email to wellf...@ett.healthit.gov.

 You can find this under the more info tab of the test case.

Thanks
