Re: Triggering Comm Event Creation from Email

Hi Darrell, 

Technically haven't noticed why it is not working. But a thought wrt functional behavior; since retrieve password email contains user password in it, therefore for security reasons, it should not be logged anywhere in system.

| 
| Hi fellow OFBiz'ers,
| 
| I've been looking into e-mailing in the framework, and noticed
| something
| that I hope you might be able to help me out with.
| 
| I noticed that if I attempt to use the "Email Password" feature of
| the
| eCommerce login page, I'm able to send the message (after of course
| configuring my mail settings), but I noticed that if I view the
| CommunicationEvents for the party, either through Party Manager, or
| by
| directly viewing the entity, there are no records created.
| 
| After tracing the service calls, I see that LoginEvents calls the
| "sendMailHiddenInLogFromScreen" service, which ultimately ends with
| calling
| the "sendMail" service. I also noticed that there are SECAs in
| "applications\party\servicedef\secas.xml" which will invoke
| "createCommEventFromEmail" when sendMail/sendMailMultiPart is invoked
| with a
| partyId, and an empty communicationEventId.
| 
| From my testing, I've concluded that I cannot get these SECA's to
| trigger.
| I've verified that the input map before the call to "sendMail", and
| in the
| call contains a partyId, and does not contain a communicationEventId.
| Additionally, I've tried removing the conditions on the SECA, but
| this does
| not result in "createCommEventFromEmail" being called. I've created
| another
| SECA in this file which calls a simple test service, and I've used
| "createPerson" in-validate as a trigger which I've verified that this
| works
| fine.
| 
| I wanted to confirm that the intended behavior is that a
| CommunicationEvent
| should be created. Also, am I missing something as to why this SECA
| wouldn't
| be called? (there's a comment below these SECA's which indicates that
| the
| scheduled job of the "sendEmailDated" process which runs every 5
| minutes has
| replaced some SECA's, but I didn't think that applied to these)
| 
| Thanks for the help
| Darrell

I agree, functionally, this makes sense to not store sensitive user
credentials in the logs/database.

As it turns out, the reason that "createCommEventFromEmail" it is not
triggered for the "hiddenInLog" services is due to something I overlooked
when initially looking into the flow. I had overlooked the fact that the
"sendMailHiddenInLog" and "sendMailMultiPartHiddenInLog" services do not
invoke the sendMail/sendMailMultipart services like originally thought, but
instead directly call the sendMail method in EmailServices, thus not
triggering the "createCommEventFromEmail" SECA which is triggered off of the
sendMail/sendMailMultiPart services. 

Best Regards (and Happy New Year),
Darrell
