Re: SMTP server/slightly off topic

Brad:
Thanks.  The actually email is coming to my box via SNADS using the SNDDST
command.  I have a *ANY entry in my distribution directory, but in order to
have the email address be user@here.com I need to add a directory entry for
every remote user on the AS400 that sends data to mine.  This just seem to
be a main problem.  Am I misunderstood.  I tried to add an SMTP entry for
the user on the remote AS400 but that did not seem to help.
