Hi,
i'm having some trouble using an email content rule on a space. I use the wizard to set the user who will receive an email when a new item is added to the space. It seems to work, but if i go somewhere else and then get back to edit the rule again i get a java.lang.NullPointerException. These are the exception's details:

Regarding the posted problem, i would like to add something that maybe can help.
The situation i have is the following:
1) one space with a content rule applied. This rule is the one described above, which causes the java.lang.NullPointerException (moves a doc into another space and sends an email to a specified user)
2) another space with a simplier rule which moves only the inbound docs somewhere else in the spacestore
if i login and try to edit the first rule i get the exception. Then, i go and edit the second rule. Everything works: i can see and eventually modify it. Now i go back to the first rule and….magically i can edit it too: the exception is no longer present.
Finally, i can also see from alfresco log file that, when the first rule is fired, a message like "Failed to send mail to null" is shown; so it really seems that for some reason the application can't retrieve the email address in some occasions.
Hope i've explained it well.
Thanks in advance for your help!!!

Hi,
You have indeed found a bug.
The MailHandler class used to initialise the wizard for edit is trying to access the current wizard before it's been fully initialised, hence the NullPointerException.
Once you've been into one wizard succesfully the object required has been setup which is why on your second attempt it appears to work. However, the wizard will be using the wrong object.
I have raised this in JIRA: http://issues.alfresco.com/browse/AWC-966 so you track the progress.
Thank you for reporting this.

Hi,
you're confirming what i supposed: something was wrong with the initialisation of the handler class.
Thanks for this and for all the rest of your work!!!!! By the way, you're doing an excellent job with this software.
P.S. : do you think it's the same bug causing the error "Failed to send mail to null" when the rule is fired?

What does the rest of the stack trace say? Did you select an individual to send the email to? Does that individual have an email adrress set?
I presume you have an email server configured and running on the same machine as the alfresco repository?

I am having this issue on 2.0 also. I had three rules in a space, the last one being a mail rule. I got the java.lang.NullPointerException error. I restarted the tomcat server to see what would happen. I was able to delete the rule.
Is this a seperate bug?

As I said I get a similar error, here is the complete output.
Please let me know it I am doing something wrong or is just
an Alfresco bug.

The error message in this case gives a clue "Failed to send email to null", means that for some reason there is no email address present to send to.
Can you verify that the user you are trying to send the email to has an email address set in their user preferences.
