hi all,

I followed the code below to send email via pl/sql using utl_smtp package but it is showing error,
is anything wrong or something I am missing? please check and guide.

below code copied/paste from somewhere on the net.

Create new ACL (Access Control List)
------------------------------------
BEGIN
  DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.create_acl (
    acl          => 'acl_for_mymail.xml', 
    description  => 'Create ACL for MyMail Server',
    principal    => 'HR',
    is_grant     => TRUE, 
    privilege    => 'connect',
    start_date   => SYSTIMESTAMP,
    end_date     => NULL);

  COMMIT;
END;
/

Add access point to new ACL
---------------------------
BEGIN
  DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.assign_acl (
    acl => 'acl_for_mymail.xml',
    host => 'smtp.mymail.com', 
    lower_port => 26,
    upper_port => NULL); 
commit;
END;
/

Add privilege
-------------
begin
  dbms_network_acl_admin.add_privilege (
  acl       => 'acl_for_mymail.xml',
  principal => 'HR',
  is_grant  => TRUE,
  privilege => 'connect'
  );
  commit;
end;
/

You have not specified the port here

ALTER SYSTEM SET smtp_out_server = 'smtp.mymail.com';

so it will default to 25, which your ACL doers not permit. 26 is somewhat unusual, you know,

ALTER SYSTEM SET smtp_out_server = 'smtp.mymail.com:26';

Like john said, why did you use port 26, the smtp standard is port 25 and unless the smtp server at smtp.mymail.com has been configured to use port 26 it's not going to work. and you will get the error 500.

thank you for reply,
yes, we are using this configuration on MS Outlook ( Port 26 for SMTP Server ) and its working fine.
also I sent my output to Network department for query to service provider, may be something from their side.
will try another FREE service like MailGun to give demo to my client if it configured correctly I assume/hope this code will work fine. for this purpose I will need How To's to configure it.

thanks.

SMTP 550 errors are nothing to do with Oracle. Could be that you are trying to contact a bad email address (or at least, bad as far as your SMTP server is concerned). Its log should give you more information.

already I have mentioned this in my opening post, last line:

and in my reply to @Bill also mentioned that

hope this will resolve soon.
thanks for your passions.
