Is it possible to implement email read-receipts using OpenERP? - email

Does anyone know if it's possible to implement email read-receipts in Open ERP?
I'd like to use OpenERP to send invoices to customers, and we'd like to be able to track if the customer has received the email.
TIA

Everything is possible with openerp ! The system is already able to send à mail to the customer and can read mails in an inbox.
You would have to modify the fetchmail module and implement the email read-receipts standard.
I hope this will help you !

We are actually planning the development of an email analytics module that does what you describe and more (did the recipient click on a certain link, bounce-backs management,... similarly to what MailChimp does).
This development hasn't started yet so there is no ETA but there are internal discussions to have it certified.

how can i get email notification on salesforce from my customers?

ןs it possible to synchronize between my email and salesforce so that I can send emails to my customers and receive an alert when they reply to the email?
If so I would love to know how to do it :)
Quick&dirty way - configure Email-to-Case and you could be forwarding certain emails (manually? with some automated rule?)
Read up about InboundEmailHandler and you could have it bit smarter, piece of code that could find previous messages, reopen cases, link them to right contact...
Bit more involved would be proper Gmail / Office 365 /... mail sync. It used to be called "Lightning Sync" but looks like they're phasing it out. Try https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=sf.einstein_sales_aac.htm&type=5

Google gmail quickbutton action

I'm reading about the new development of Google quick action buttons in the mail inbox.
I'm a little bit lost in this topic and not understand how I can include this function in my emails.
I have read about DKIM/SPF but I don't know if this functionality could need to do an google app.
I have my mail server with marketing segmentation and I want this button is visible when email come to client (destiny) gmail inbox (guess only works in gmail....). If i have included the markup code in html in my emails, why i can't see this button?
would it need create a specific mail application to implement this feature and send emails from this app? Someone tried this?
I know maybe this has been reply before but i think must start more down... so.. sorry.
Thanks and regards!
When you are ready to launch your marked up emails to your users, you will need to register with Google. Please follow this process:
1.Send a real-life email coming from your production servers (or a server with similar DKIM/SPF/From:/Return-Path: headers) including the markup / schema to schema.whitelisting+sample#gmail.com.
2.If you send a test/blank email, an email that does not contain schema or if you don't send an email for review your application will be silently discarded.
3.Make sure that the markup is correct prior to sending the email. For more details see Testing your Schema. Especially make sure the email passes the Email markup Tester and that there are no errors, also make sure to include as much data as possible.
4.Gmail removes all markup when forwarding an email. Do not forward the email but send it directly.
Fill out the registration form available here.
Here is the link for the documentation.
Hope this helps!!
Are you sending a promotional email (offers, etc.)?
If yes, then you are likely to be delivered to the Promotions tab, where quick actions do not work (according to Litmus - https://litmus.com/ebooks/gmail-ebook/gmail-ebook/).
Quick Actions work best in the Inbox for transactional emails.
("Here is your booking confirmation" [Check-in now] quick action)
These typically arrive directly in the Inbox.

How to send email from Contact Form in Drupal 7?

Currently, I am developing a website using Drupal 7 in my local computer.
I have set up Contact Form (Drupal core module) for user to send feedbacks.
However, I have no idea how to send email from Contact form. I didn't receive any email after I filled in and submitted the contact form. And website displays the status "The message has been sent." But there is no email received.
I know there must be something I need to setup before using Contact Form. Maybe mail server?
I use Drupal 7 with XAMPP.
Is there any step-by-step guideline on sending email? Maybe for both cases
Local machine as web server (for testing on my local computer)
Real web server (for publishing after everything is done)
I have searched some solutions in some forums but I do not understand.
I am new to Drupal.
Thank you so much for your help and guidance.
For getting mail from contact form,
Enable the module
Go to admin-> structure-> contact form
Create new category
Fill the details Category, Recipients (you need to give the mail you need to get notified), etc...
If you need to test the mail in local then you need to setup SMTP module in your drupal, this will work in server also.
If you don't have any any SMTP settings then you need to test in server. In server you may don't need any smtp mail, simply php mail may work if your hosting server is support. So no need to do any extra effort for that.

Openerp email template location

I'm configuring OpenERP to send invitation mails for meetings. Everything was going well until I wanted to change content. It should be available in email templates but it's not. Unfortunately only templates I can find are for invoice, sell and buy orders. As long as the mails are sent from system I was wandering where is their content loaded from. Can anyone help me find it out?
check addons/base_calendar/base_calendar.py search for html_invitation.
this is static in py file for Meeting invitation mail
#Michał : you have customized your own template which you want. OpenERP will provide you few demo templates. For meeting reminder or send invitation for meeting,You have to make a new.

How can I send mail through Gmail with Perl?

How can I send email using Perl through my Gmail account? The one CPAN library (Mail::Webmail::Gmail) that I tried didn't work and I don't see much activity with it.
At the moment I really only need to send a message. However, the advanced functionality of getting my contacts, acting when a new email is received that has a certain label, etc. certainly seems appealing for another day.
Did you try Email::Send::Gmail?
You could always send with SMTP. The server is smtp.gmail.com, it requires TLS and uses authentication. You may also have to enable POP/IMAP in your account.
I had the same problem with Mail::Webmail::Gmail, I ended up using Net::IMAP::Simple::SSL to get my mail from gmail. I'd guess if I had to try to send mail with it I would first try Net::SMTP::Server .
I have extended WWW::Contact::GoogleContactsAPI to get all the contact fields. See:
Is there a Perl module to interface to Google Contacts API?
