Re: Multi part MIME files send from the AS400

[Patrick Townsend <townsend@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Carl,

Turn off the AS/400 tendency to split attachments by creating this data
area:

   crtdtaara dtaara(qusrsys/qtmsnosplt) type(*char) len(1) value(' ')
aut(*all)

This is documented in one of the Redbooks, I believe.
