Incoming email to SharePoint Document Libraries

You WILL run into this at some point if you use incoming mail to lists or
libraries. An incredibly useful technique, but "incredibly
limited".

There is an EmailReceived event for which you can write a handler, but this is not for the faint-of-heart.

1) There is no way to alert the sender out of the box.

2) There is no way to alert the administrator out of the box.

3) There is no way to send an NDR out of the box



Incoming e-mail is incredibly limited, unfortunately.

Subject: [sharepointdiscussions] incoming email to SharePoint Document
Libraries



I have successfully enabled incoming email to Document Libraries. On
the Document Library settings for Incoming email, I have selected the E-
mail security policy of "Accept e-mail messages based on document
library permissions". I receive the following message in the log file
when an unathorized user sends an email to the document libary: "An
error occurred while processing the incoming e-mail file
C:\Inetpub\mailroot\Drop\2cea94d301c93f820000000c.eml. The error was:
Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or
access this resource.."

Is there any way to configure SharePoint to 1)alert the sender, 2)alert
an administrator, or 3)somehow return an undeliverable message when
this situation occurs?
