Re: Enable Email to a Document Library in Sharepoint 3.0



When email enabling a document library, you have to ensure that the application pool account has permissions in Active Directory to create an email enabled contact. In most situations, I have seen this permission granted on an OU. Of course, you will have to get past your Active Directory Admin/Exchange Admin. I would advise you research this configuration b/c the emailed enabled contact can show up in your organization's GAL.

You must configure SMTP on the Farm level before you can configure it on the Web Application and ultimately email enable a document library. Also, your WA can have a unique configuration from your Farm. Again, I would recommend researching this area.

I've seen many posts on enabling email in WSS 2.0 however none on WSS
3.0. I'm trying to enable email on a document library so that I can
cc a smtp address and the email w/ attachment will appear in our
'Server Docs' library. I've done the following:

1. Created a public folder called Server Group Docs
2. Granted 'anonymous' read access to it and associated it with an
smtp address: servergroupdocs@xxxxxxxxxxx
3. In the Server Docs document library settings I've enabled incoming
email and given it the servergroupdocs@xxxxxxxxx email address.

When I send an email to the address, I don't see it appearing in the
document library however I can see it in the Exchange public folder.

Anything I can check for that will make this work? It seems that it's
harder to get this working than in WSS 2.0?

Thanks.
