Outbound configuration properties
IBM WebSphere Adapter for Email has several categories of outbound connection configuration properties, which you set with the external service wizard while generating or creating objects and services. You can change the resource adapter and managed connection factory properties after you deploy the module to IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus using IBM Integration Designer or the Process Administrative Console, but connection properties for the external service wizard cannot be changed after deployment.
- Guide to information about properties
The properties used to configure WebSphere Adapter for Email are described in detail in tables included in each of the configuration properties topics, such as Resource adapter properties, Managed connection factory properties, and so on. To help you use these tables, information about each row you might see is explained here.- Connection properties for the external service wizard
Enterprise service discovery selection properties are used to build a service description and to save the built-in artifacts. These properties are configured in the external service wizard.- Managed connection factory properties
Managed connection factory properties are used by the adapter at run time to create an outbound connection instance with the mail server.- Resource adapter properties
A resource adapter contains properties such as the adapter ID and logging and tracing options specific to the adapter. You can set the logging and tracing properties using the external service wizard during adapter configuration. You can set or change any of the properties using the Process Administrative Console.- Interaction specification properties
Interaction specification properties specify business object details for a given data type selected in the external service wizard. When interaction specification values such as To or From addresses are set in the wizard, these values are automatically populated in the business objects created in association with the module.
