RE: Sending e-mails from AS/400

Depends on the rest of your set-up;
to start with, this is an "old" way, API's are better and more flexible.

But this is a quick way to introduce yourself to what the 400 can do.

Look over the following:
CHGDSTA (F4) if rout to smtp gateway is *none, continue on.
cfgtcp (option 10- is your mail server listed? it must be)
once that is set up, ping on the as/400 command line to make sure it works.
now using CHGSMTPA make sure autostart is set to yes and that the mail
router
 parm is correct.
now you must run this command:

adddire usrid(internet gateway) usrd('internet smtp gateway')
sysname(internet)
prefadr(netusrid *ibm atcontxt)

then the following:
chgdsta smtprte(internet gateway)


Now you can start the smtp server (strtcpsvr *smtp)

you also need in your system alias table the user pchappop, this is via
cfgtcp, option 12
to configure smtp, also the user sending the message must be in this table,
and in your
directory entries.

Those are what I remember so far

We want to send an e-mail from iSeries 400. We have followed the
next steps:
>STRMSF
>STRTCPSVR SERVER(*SMTP)
>STRTCPSVR SERVER(*POP)
>SNDDST TYPE(*DOC) TOINTNET((user@yahoo.es)) DSTD(TEST)
MSG('This is a test') DOC(INVOICE) FLR(myfolder)

where user@yahoo.es is a valid e-mail address and the document
INVOICE exist in myfolder. We are not receiveing anything in the
e-mail address. What are we missing?
