Re: Email problem

["Brad Stone" <brad@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Try using the SNDDST *LMSG command to send an email.  If
that doesn't work, then email isn't set up properly.

If it does work, then something most likely changed on the
mail router side of things.  Like it thinks you're trying
to relay emails using the wrong domain on the "from"
address.

I've seen this a few times since I support an email
product.  And these problems are the main reasons I created
my own email sending routine.  :)  Totally bypassing the
IBM SMTP server.
