Windows Server - Sending named attachments to email messages

Asked By Idar

Hi,

I have an orchestration where I have defined a dyamic send port, and I want
to use this port to send an XML document by the SMTP adapter.  The code I use
to configure the send port in an Expression in the orchestration is somethin
like this:

SendDynamicMessagePort(Microsoft.XLANGs.BaseTypes.Address) = @"mailto:" +
inMessage(Markedsregulering.PropertySchema.Address);

sendOrder(SMTP.Subject) = "Incoming order";
sendOrder(SMTP.Username) =
inMessage(Markedsregulering.PropertySchema.Address);
sendOrder(SMTP.EmailBodyTextCharset) = "UTF-8";
sendOrder(SMTP.EmailBodyText) = "\nA message is enclosed to this email\n";
sendOrder(SMTP.MessagePartsAttachments) = 1;

This works fine, and the attachment gets the name body.xml.

The receiver of this message want me to name the attachment where the name
is dynamically created based on a couple of elements in the document, i.e.
exped_123456.xml where exped and 123456 is retrieved from the document.

Does anyone knows how I can name the attachment of the email?

Thanks

The example says:
EMail.OriginalMessage(MIME.FileName) = "OriginalMessage.xml";

In the example below, SendDynamicMessagePort is a dynamic send port, and the
message is sendOrder. In the BizTalk Expression Editor, I get "illegal dotted
name" when I try to write sendOrder.OriginalMessage(MIME.FileName) = ...

I guess I get the message because of the dynamic send port, but what am I
doing wrong?

You need to define your message (sendOrder) as Multipart message.

This link will show you how to define and use multipart message
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/07/05/BizTalk/default.aspx#S1

I just create a quick sample, my expression shape has the following lines
Message_3.MessagePart_1(MIME.FileName)


Step1:
1. Right Click on "Multi-part Message Type" in the orchestration view
(bottom types window) and click new message (Default Name: MultipartType_1)
2. Expand the tree node, click on "MessagePart_1" (Default part name) and
assign corresponding schema
3. In the orchestration view created a message called "Message_3" and
assigned the Message Type to "BizTalk_Server_Project3.MultipartType_1"

You need to do the same.
