Re: Email from Power systems

If it's varying shouldn't it be %addr(body:*DATA)?

I guess they are using varying: %addr(body)+2

An even more efficient way, perhaps, is to use varying-length variables.
If, that is, these functions can use them or if RPG will properly make
them work - I think it might.

But varying-length generally work faster when building long string
variables than using %trim(). And the code is ever so much cleaner.

Jim,

That makes totals sense. Somewhere in the memory space allocated to

"body",

trailing your actual data, there was garbage causing your issue. It

just

shows, once again, just how important %Trim can be to success. I

think I

use that BIF almost as much as any other, for just the same kinds of
reasons.

Glad it all worked out.

Subject: Email from Power systems

A month or two back, there was some discussion about issues sending

email

from a power system. We have been doing this for some time, but a year

ago

we converted from an inhouse mail server to using the cloud 365 email

server

and many of our emails stopped arriving at the destination with a

bounce

back error code of 500 indicating that a text line was longer than

allowed.

One of my predecessors wrote a program called procedure that we use for
sending emails. The heart of this procedure has the following code:

header = 'From: ' + fromName + ' <' + fromAddr +

'>' +

CRLF
+'To: ' + toName + ' <' + toAddr + '>' + CRLF
+'Date: ' + MailDate() + CRLF
+'Subject: ' + subject + CRLF
+'MIME-Version: 1.0' + CRLF
+'Content-Type: text/html' + CRLF
+ CRLF;

callp write(fd: %addr(header)+2: %len(header));
//d02callp write(fd: %addr(body)+2: %len(body));
callp write(fd: %addr(body)+2: %len(%trim(body))); //a02
callp close(fd);

//
---------------------------------------------------------------------
// Send the e-mail
//
---------------------------------------------------------------------

fromLen = %len(%trim(fromAddr));
namelen = %len(%trim(filename));
sendmail(filename:namelen: fromAddr:fromLen:
%addr(RecipTbl):NbrRecips:ErrorCode);

About 2 weeks ago I deleted a line of this code (leading //d02

indicator)

and added a new line of code (trailing //a02 indicator). This appears

to

have resolved the issue we were having.

Hoping that this might help someone else.

Before someone asks: I think the entire code was from was "borrowed"

from an

online source, but there is nothing in the documentation indicating

where,

as such, I am not willing to share the entire code set.
