<subsection name="Objective">
<p>
This sample show cases the mail transport of Synapse. The mail transport allows
Synapse to receive and send e-mails using common protocols like POP, IMAP and
SMTP.
</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Pre-requisites">
<p>
<ul>
<li>
You need access to an e-mail account to try out this sample
</li>
<li>
Deploy the SimpleStockQuoteService in the sample Axis2 server and start Axis2
</li>
<li>
Enable the mail transport listener and mail transport sender for Synapse
(refer <a href="setup/mail.html#mailTransportSender">Mail transport setup</a>
guide for more details)
</li>
<li>
Start Synapse using the configuration numbered 256 (repository/conf/sample/synapse_sample_256.xml)
<div class="command">
Unix/Linux: sh synapse.sh -sample 256<br/>
Windows: synapse.bat -sample 256
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Executing the Client">
<p>
Send an e-mail to <a href="mailto:synapse.demo.1@gmail.com">synapse.demo.1@gmail.com</a>
with the following payload.
</p>
<div class="xmlConf">&lt;getQuote xmlns=&quot;http://services.samples&quot;&gt;
&lt;request xmlns=&quot;http://services.samples/xsd&quot;&gt;
&lt;symbol&gt;IBM&lt;/symbol&gt;
&lt;/request&gt;
&lt;/getQuote&gt;</div>
<p>
Synapse will be polling on the above e-mail account for any incoming requests. When
your mail arrives at this account, Synapse will pick it up and send the payload to
Axis2 over HTTP. The response will be mailed back to your e-mail account. Synapse
retrieves the sender information from the original request to determine the recipient
of the response mail.
</p>
<p>
Note that in this sample we used the transport.mail.ContentType property to make
sure that the transport parses the request message as POX. If you remove this
property, you may still be able to send requests using a standard mail client if
instead of writing the XML in the body of the message, you add it as an attachment.
In that case, you should use .xml as a suffix for the attachment and format the
request as a SOAP 1.1 message. Indeed, for a file with suffix .xml the mail client
will most likely use text/xml as the content type, exactly as required for SOAP 1.1.
Sending a POX message using this approach will be a lot trickier, because most
standard mail clients don't allow the user to explicitly set the content type.
