Trapping the SMTP/POP3 protocol (Doc ID 477998.1) - Siebel

You can capture the inbound POP3 protocol conversation of the Siebel Server with the POP3 mail server as mail is fetched. The same setting will also capture the outbound SMTP protocol conversation of the Siebel Server with the SMTP mail server as mail is sent. Follow these steps to capture the POP3 or SMTP protocol conversation:

Log in to the Siebel Web Client as SADMIN.

NOTE: You can also log in as another user who has access to the Administration - Communications screen.

Choose View > Site Map > Administration - Communcations > Communications Drivers and Profiles.

In the Communications Drivers applet, select the Internet SMTP/POP3 Server communications driver.

In the Driver Parameters tab, set the following parameter:

LogDebug TRUE

Restart the CommOutboundMgr task. If necessary also restart the CommInboundMgr tasks and their corresponding eMail Response Groups and allow incoming mail to be processed.

If you are troubleshooting an issue with replies to or forwarding of inbound emails, also send some replies or forwarded messages so that you can capture the conversations related to outbound emails.

You will then see files with names like

POP3SMTP_8BC_1_1_4056DC8B_8C0FB2.log

generated in the SIEBEL_ROOT\SiebSrvr\log directory.

Consolidate the POP3SMTP*.log files and provide the consolidated file to Technical Support. Refer to the Diagnostics and Tracing section of this document for details on how to provide the consolidated files. 

In case POP3 or SMTP protocol tracing is not functioning please see

Internet SMTP/POP3 Server Log Generation Note 1274783.1

How to create and publish Inbound Web Service in Siebel based on Workflow

Inbound Web Services: The Inbound Web Service allows an external system to call a Siebel published Web Service. You can publish a business service or a business process as a Web Service and generate a Web Service Definition Language (WSDL) file that an external system can import. The Inbound Web Services can only be published from Siebel C using SOAP-RPC binding. Source: Oracle Docs What Is The Difference Between Web Services and APIs? An API is an interface that allows you to build on the data and functionality of another application, while a web service is a network-based resource that fulfills a specific task. Yes, there’s overlap between the two: all web services are APIs, but not all APIs are web services. Both web services and APIs are — at their core — very useful and very much used today. However, it’s the web services associated with SOAP and/or Service Oriented Architecture which are falling out of favor. Source: NordicApis Process: Prepare the workflow which will serve as Si...
