Re: Anyone using QtmmSendEmail... a favor... :)

Shannon, I posted one in my first email on this thread:

xxxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxx

Luis, would you have the RFC number handy? I guess I can search for
it, but I'm just about to get my beauty sleep...

I have tried this with MAILTOOL Plus, which bypasses the IBM SMTP
server and it works. It also works using gmail.

Interesting links here now that I knew what to search for.. IBM seems
to be 1 off from the max link of the local part of the address:

http://isemail.info/xxxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXxxxxxx%40bvstools.com

which doesn't work with QtmSendMail

vs

http://isemail.info/xxxxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXxxxxxx%40bvstools.com

which fails the RFC and also won't work with QtmmSend Mail

What name would be longer than 63 characters?

Do you have an example?

Let me explain my reasoning for this.. it's kinda wacky.

I (actually a customer of mine) has found that an email address with the
length of the string before the @ of greater than 63 charaters will throw a
cpf3c17 in the QtmmSendMail api (I'm on V5R4).

At first we thought it was the total length of the address, but after
playing around found it was instead the length of the address before the @
sign that made the error happen.

That's why in the two email address examples I gave the first should fail
and the second should work.  So I'm hoping someone using MMAIL or something
else home grown that calls the QtmmSendMail api can maybe verify or shoot
this theory down.

Thanks!
