Re: SMTP w/Attachment(s)

[Patrick Townsend <townsend@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Steve,

Check out NetSend from Net400 (a partner company). You can get
information about it here: http://www.net400.com

The AS/400 has the SNDDST command, but it doesn't give you much
capability for sending attachments. There is an API called qtmmSendMail
which does allow attachments. You've got to construct your own MIME
headers, do your own base64 encoding, etc. I think there is some sample
code on News/400 for this (http://www.news400.com).

If you have an FTP requirement check out our Alliance FTP Manager
product (http://www.patownsend.com/FTPManager.htm).
