Re: Looking for email package recommendations on the i -- MIDRANGE-L

It is still supported and delivered but only on IBM i, all the other platforms have dropped it. It is not being updated nor enhanced and will eventually be removed from the system. It is not a preferred solution for anything new. It's there because IBM made the promise they would not intentionally break applications.

All that said, it is really a cool product, just not in today's marketplace.

I thought Net.Data wasn't supported anymore? If it is infact not supported anymore I would suggest doing one of the other alternatives. The RPGMail alternative seems to be much more versitile.

I just wanted to report back that your instructions worked great; I filled in minor gaps. Mail relay through our external ISP worked fine.
CL Program:

PGM CD DIR('/qsys.lib/qsyscgi.lib/') ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(PATH_INFO) +
VALUE('/qsys.lib/qsyscgi.lib/qclsrc.file/ma+
cro.mbr/send') MONMSG MSGID(CPF0000) CALL PGM(QSYSCGI/DB2WWW) DSPPFM FILE(QTEMP/STDOUT) ENDPGM
Net.Data Macro:

%define HTML = {<html><body><table>
<tr><td>Hi there Nathan</td></tr>
<tr><td>This is an HTML formatted email sent from DB2WWW</td></tr>

</table></body></html> %} %html(send) { @dtw_assign(sndaddr,"nandelin@xxxxxxx")
@dtw_assign(rcvaddr,"nandelin@xxxxxxx")
@dtw_assign(subject,"test") @dtw_sendmail( sndaddr, rcvaddr, HTML, subject,"","","","","","","html")
%}
