Sending a workflow message to an internet address

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Try SO28 and SO36 - you need to set up an autoforwarding address for
WF-BATCH which
is the "sender" address plus some other config.
 
Talk to a basis techie person about this - you need to check that SAPConnect
or some sort
of SMTP mail send is working first.

I can't get into the system right now to tell you the exact transaction
for the profile, but a value does need to exist in the user's R/3
profile that points to the internet address.
