Re: Sending an Email From AS400

Hi, Greg.

Yep, 30 day free trial (which actually is extendable to any
amount of time it takes to decide) and downloadable from
www.bvstools.com/mailtool.html.

I also usually end up helping my customers with these types
of situations, so I am happy to work with you to get things
working.  Wouldn't hurt to try.

The only thing that needs to be set up with MAILTOOL and
MAILTOOL Plus (the addon that bypasses the entire IBM SMTP
server, MSF, etc) is TCPIP, mainly having your host and
domain name filled in in CFGTCP option 12 as well as DNS
entries if needed.  Shouldn't take more than a few minutes
to set up.

I'm also always willing to help.

Thanks!
