RE: Email from Iseries using java

["Eyers, Daniel" <daniel.eyers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm not sure this is correct.  We open a port to an existing SMTP (not on
the iSeries) and blast the data down the pipe...

can send code if you want....

James,

If you really want to send email "from my iSeries" you will have to
have
some sort of SMTP server running on the iSeries. I have been running
James (no, not you James L, the other James) on my system and it works

pretty well. It is way ahead of IBM's MSF based SMTP server. I don't
have instructions written up on how to set up James, but it is pretty
strait
forward. If anyone is interested, let me know and I will try to help.
You can
find out more about James in general at

Use JAVAMAIL. It's actually better and easier than any other way I
know
of to send email from an AS/400, because it doesn't require the mail
server to be running on the AS/400 itself. You can find both the API
and
the docs on the Sun site.
