SymptomE-mail mesages from SharePoint lists or workflows to email enabled SharePoint lists or document libraries do not arrive.
CauseE-mail messages from SharePoint are not allowed to be delivered to other lists within WSS sites. SharePoint filters out e-mail messages when an e-mail message has a destination address of an e-mail enabled list. For Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 SharePoint checks for the following two fields in the EML: ""X-AlertServerType" = STS and “X-Mailer” = "Windows SharePoint Services (version 3)" If either of those two fields has those values, SharePoint filters that e-mail and does not enable delivery of that e-mail to the list. For SharePoint 2010 Delivery of e-mail messages is not enabled from SharePoint to other lists within WSS sites. SharePoint filters out e-mail messages when an e-mail message has a destination address of an e-mail-enabled list. SharePoint checks for the following field in the EML: X-Mailer: Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 If this field has that value, SharePoint filters that e-mail and does not enable delivery of that e-mail to the list. ResolutionE-mail messages to SharePoint e-mail enabled lists or document libraries must originate from non-SharePoint senders.
More InformationThis functionality is put in to place so that an infinite loop of e-mail messages cannot occur if a workflow is triggered to send e-mail messages to a specific list when an e-mail message arrives to that same list.
