Email - SNDDST not working...

Re: Email - SNDDST not working...

Though I didn't provide a "nice to read" answer to your post, I do have the same problem but there is a slight difference: I do have the directories on my ISeries.

But we still have the error message.

Did you manage to solve the issue?

If so, would you care to share the solution?

Thanks!

Re: Email - SNDDST not working...

what do you mean "We dont have directories on our system?"

Finally we found out what was wrong.

The IFS was restored from another system's tapes and the consultant that did the job probably forgot to run a RSTAUT.

We did a RSTAUT and now SNDDST works just fine.

HTH.

I don't know if you were answering to "MY" reply, anyway, I don't find out where you read "We don't have directories" in this thread.

Maybe you refer to "I do have the directories on my ISeries". In this case I think there was a misunderstanding. I meant that in Gumbo's online manual they say "If you do not have the required directories (ATTABOX, etc...) you must reinstall TCP services."

This should apply to pollos_lg's problem.

But for me, it does not apply. We have those directories on our system. The only thing was that the authorities were not set properly because of the system restore job that was not completed.

So that's it for me.

See ya all later

Maybe this may help someone:

 PGM                                                       
 
ENDMSF     OPTION(*IMMED)                                 
ENDTCPSVR  SERVER(*SMTP)                                  
 
CRTDTAARA  DTAARA(QUSRSYS/QTMSCLEAN) TYPE(*CHAR) +
LEN(1) VALUE('W') AUT(*ALL)                           
MONMSG     MSGID(CPF9999) EXEC(GOTO CHG)                  
GOTO       CMDLBL(END)                                    
 
CHG:        CHGDTAARA  DTAARA(QUSRSYS/QTMSCLEAN) VALUE('W')           
 
end:         STRTCPSVR SERVER(*SMTP)                                   
MONMSG     MSGID(CPF9999)

MONMSG     MSGID(CPF9999)                                 
 
STRMSF     MSGOPT(*CLEAR)                                 
ENDPGM

This reset the queue and will only cancel the current message. If 'W' is replaced with 'C', then the complete queue is cleared.

Re: Email - SNDDST not working...

There are others here more expert than I am (invitation to correct as needed), but,
The sender of the message needs a directory entry. Among other things, this provides a "from" email address link to the profile. It appends the user profile, system name and domain name.

As far as TCP, you want to have the AS400 on the domain. You should also add the AS400 to the "HOSTS" table. At least 2 entries something like
192.168.1.1 SYSNAME
192.168.1.1 SYSNAME.MYDOMAIN.COM

I don't know that its actually needed for email, but I know some things will fail if its not setup. (Time for real experts to jump in here ....)

I am having a SNDDST problem where the sender address is causing the email to be rejected since it is not valid. Is there a way to drop the system name from the sender email address? Instead of the sender email being user@company.com it is user@as400.company.com.
