Hi. I created a slick little DFSORT job that reads a file and builds email cards based on info in the input data set. But I'm seeing these weird empty attachments in the emails. They are all named ATT0001..txt. Anyone know why?

Email cards generated by my JCL are below. (The counts and amounts in the body of the email are populated from the input file.)

Code:
HELO MYEMAILSERVER.COM
MAIL FROM:<ME@MYEMAILSERVER.COM>
RCPT TO:<THEM@THEIREMAILSERVER.COM>
DATA
FROM: Yours Truly
TO: My Favorite Customer
SUBJECT: DEPOSIT CONFIRMATION **TEST**
MIME-VERSION: 1.0
CONTENT-TYPE: MULTIPART/MIXED; BOUNDARY="SIMPLE BOUNDARY"

--SIMPLE BOUNDARY
CONTENT-TYPE: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET="US-ASCII"

   DEPOSIT CUT:  10
 DEPOSIT COUNT:  9
DEPOSIT AMOUNT:  $798,644.34

--SIMPLE BOUNDARY

ATT00001.txt is the MIME output you generated.

I believe that this is a result of an incompatibility between Outlook and the sending mail server. I think the solution has to come from the Outlook end.
