Sending external Email 2

[Martin Maguth]

just looked again ...
 
SO16 has a tab "send" that contains a checkbox called:
 
"external sending only via address management" in the send restrictions
area ...
 
that might be the issue you encounter.

ps: i am looking at a 4.6 release, so naming might be a bit different from
your 4.5.

Subject:    Sending external Email
 
 
 
Hello,
 
Ran into something I have never seen before and was wondering
if anyone could help.  Am working in a 4.5B environment.
 
Want to send a message from SAP to an external email address that
does not exist in SAP address management.  Have done this many
times before and not had a problem - with Workflow using SELFITEM
and programs using SO_ function modules.
 
Here, I am receiving a error and the message is not sent unless the
Recipient email address I use is contained in address management
(set up my own address already).  Works perfectly if I use an address
that is contained in address management but it has to be an exact
match (ex  thomas.b.maue at pmusa.com).
Note - The address maintenance of R/3 users is carried out either
the R/3 User Maintenance (Transaction SU01) or the Private
office settings (Transaction SO12).
 
Is there a Basis setting or a user exit that controls this cross-
reference to address management?  Have checked OSS but did not
find anything.
 
Thank you,
