Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Sending mail from PL/SQL procedure
There is a number of issues that could prevent mail from being
delivered. First of all, HELO command should have name of the
host which connects to the SMTP server as parameter and nothing
else. Also, cc: and bcc: headers are not actually necessary.
You may want to take a look at our PSP_Mail solution which allows to send various types of e-mail from Oracle8i, attach LOBs to the message, automatically detect and send mail to the SMTP server of recipient, and more. You can download trial copy at http://www.dpsp-yes.com
