Symptom
- You have enabled and configured the e-mail channels in SAP Cloud for Service.
- Occasionally, C4C does not create tickets via e-mails, despite the original e-mails arriving at the customer e-mail server and being forwarded to the C4C technical e-mail address.
Environment
- SAP Cloud for Customer
- SAP Cloud for Service
- SAP Cloud for Sales
Reproducing the Issue
- Send e-mail to a designated e-mail address (defined in C4C)
- Go to Services -> Tickets (no ticket has been created), and nothing is found in the Unassociated e-mails
Cause
- E-mail has been quarantine either at the customer server side or SAP
- From SAP side, the Infrastructure will perform AV scanning which would trigger certain logic based on its own key indicators
- Once potentially harmful content is identified, the system would include the tags “{{SPAM}}” or “{{SUSPECTED SPAM}}”
- Subsequently, the affected e-mails would be filtered out and place into a spam repository
- Said e-mail won't be process by C4C, hence no ticket is created
Resolution
- Verify your junk e-mail and spam filter settings to ensure that you can receive relevant incoming e-mails.
- Note that there is a spam filter on the SAP side, to which you do not have access.
- Should you require it, your SAP consultant can provide you with additional trusted addresses.
- Or create an case requesting this.
- If an e-mail is identified as spam on the SAP side, the sender (in most cases, your external e-mail address, service.request@customerdomain.com) receives a non-deliverable status message.
- Since the SAP Infrastructure will filter out such e-mails individually based on the content, it is not possible to predict how many e-mails will be affected, and there are no reports currently available for the customer to access
- Alternatively, customers can:
- Submit a request to SAP Support (on-demand), and ask for a list of such filtered e-mails.
- SAP Support can provide the list to the customer for further evaluation
- The customer can then send a request with the list of entries they would like to exclude from the spam folder
