Re: SMTP Reset at V5R4 and higher -- MIDRANGE-L

Bradley,

It is an option now on the CMGSMTPA. I have it set to:

Process all mail through MSF . . *NO

I can shut down MSF and mail transmission goes on without interruption.

Bradley,

We have SMTP configured so that it should not be routing mail through
MSF. Do you think this process would still have some effect?

When I was using SMTP (and pulling my hair out! lol) when I hit a bad
address and it started looping I would, during a time when I knew no
emails were going out..

1. End SMTP
2. End MSF
3. Restart MSF with the *CLEAR option
4. Start SMTP

I no longer use IBM SMTP though... I got sick of the looping,
impossible debugging/tracing, and getting emails from 3 years ago
suddenly appearing in my inbox. :)

Hello List,

Up through V5R3, you could control how SMTP starts using the data area
named QTMSCLEAN in the QUSRSYS library. However, starting with V5R4, it
seems that this method is no longer supported as SMTP fails to restart
when you use this technique to reset the server when it starts looping on
a bad address.

Anyone know how to do this bit of magic at the more current OS release
levels?
