Hi All,

I am trying to send mail from the mainframes. I have added the below step in my PROC.

Code:

//PS0350   EXEC PGM=IEBGENER                             
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=A                                   
//SYSUT2   DD SYSOUT=(B,SMTP)                           
//SYSUT1   DD DSN=USERID.OWN.PARMLIB(MAIL),DISP=SHR
//SYSOUT   DD  SYSOUT=*                                 
//SYSUDUMP DD  SYSOUT=I                             
//SYSIN    DD DUMMY                                     


And in my parm member, i am having the below.

Code:

MAIL FROM: <XXXXXXX@AAAA.COM>         
RCPT TO: <XXXXXXX@AAAA.COM>           
DATA                                                       
DATE: APR 04,2008                                           
FROM: MY NAME <XXXXXXX@AAAA.COM>   
TO: "YYYY" <YYYYYYYY@AAAA.COM>;"ZZZZ"
<ZZZZZ@AAAA>;                       
MY NAME <XXXXXXX@AAAA.COM>;             
SUBJECT: TEST EMAIL
THIS IS A TEST MAIL SENT FROM MAINFRAMES TO THE MAIL ID.



When I execute the above step, the mail was not sent.

But when i had the above step in a separate PDS member, i was able to send mail to myself. But it didn't reach others. Please find the code for the same below.

Code:

//USERID JOB (0000),'SENDING MAIL',CLASS=0,MSGCLASS=U,
//         NOTIFY=&SYSUID                               
//PROGRAM  EXEC PGM=IEBGENER                             
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=A                                   
//SYSIN    DD DUMMY                                     
//SYSUT2   DD SYSOUT=(B,SMTP)                           
//SYSUT1   DD *                                         
MAIL FROM: <XXXXXXX@AAAA.COM>         
RCPT TO: <XXXXXXX@AAAA.COM>           
DATA                                                       
DATE: APR 04,2008                                           
FROM: MY NAME <XXXXXXX@AAAA.COM>   
TO: "YYYY" <YYYYYYYY@AAAA.COM>;"ZZZZ"
<ZZZZZ@AAAA>;                       
MY NAME <XXXXXXX@AAAA.COM>;             
SUBJECT: TEST EMAIL
THIS IS A TEST MAIL SENT FROM MAINFRAMES TO THE MAIL ID.
.                                                       
/*


Please let me know if i need to change any thing else.

Note: Please note the difference between SYSUT1 and SYSIN in both the steps ( I did this change as //SYSUT1 DD * is not allowed inside a PROC)

Agni.

Does the "separate PDS member" work if you use "DSN=USERID.OWN.PARMLIB(MAIL)" instead of "*" for SYSUT1?

So the same JCL works when SYSUT1 is instream but not when SYSUT1 is pointing to an 80 byte unblocked flatfile or an 80 byte PDS member, is this correct?

Hi Aaru,

The mail IDs which i gave were correct only. Will there be any reason for this as I was able to receive the mail but others didn't? Should I need to add any thing else in my parm card?

Thanks
Agni.

agni,

Is your mail address and the other receipients address in the same domain? say if u r wking for company ABC then try sending mails to the mail id's with domain ABC.com !

This is what i could think of ! I always use IKJEFT01 to send mails instead of IEBGENER.

Hi All,

I am starting this conversation again as i am having some problems in this.

In one of the regions when i used %SMTPSEND, it didn't work and i got the following error.

Code:

1READY                     
 %SMTPSEND                   
 COMMAND SMTPSEND NOT FOUND
 READY                     
 END   


Then I searched the PROCLIB whether is there any PROC step used to send the mail from mainframes. I found that one of the job was using SMTPMAIL. But that job was not running in production. I tested anyway using SMTPMAIL. But it also got failed. I got the below error.


Code:

1READY                     
 SMTPMAIL                   
 COMMAND SMTPMAIL NOT FOUND
 READY                     
 END   


Can anyone help me out on this?

Thanks
Agni

Hello,

Is there some reason that you are not running this in batch?

My guess is that you are trying to run a proc online and the proclib is not available to your tso session.

I'd suggest you simply submit the jcl and run this in batch.

Maybe there is something i misunderstand. . .

Hi Dick,

Thanks for your reply. I just ran it in batch only. It was one of the PROC steps. In other regions it is working fine. In this region only, it is not working.

Cheers

Hi Agni,

I'd suggest you talk with the system support people as to why this is not available in the region where it is "not found".

You're welcome - good luck icon_smile.gif

I suspect it is a missing or mis-named library. . . or mail is not supported from that region. . .
