Well, maybe the other gent was right. That after SMTP gets started, then MSF recognizes this and no longer has issues and stops pumping out the message that the tcp jobs are not started. But if you do an ENDTCPSVR *SMTP and do a SNDDST as an email, and then do a WRKJOB QMSF see if you don't have something in one of the joblogs about smtp jobs not running. And see if STRTCPSVR *SMTP allows it to start sending, or if you have to do a ENDMSF / STRMSF *RESET after the STRTCPSVR also.

I've submitted a few DCR's on this. Odd... I've used both MSF and SMTP in various ways since each first appeared. I have never seen either be dependent on the other being started. Granted, a given e-mail item that needs to pass in either direction between them will not proceed until the other is started, but that has never caused job failures on either side for me as far as I can remember. Might be interesting to know what would cause this trouble in order to avoid it in the future. Since V5R1, I haven't used SMTP much under OS/400 since it isn't needed much here so maybe something's new; but I do start it once in a while for specific tasks. MSF is often started for object distribution within our network, but even it isn't always running.
