Re: SMTP Name from Directory Entry

Thanks Luis...sure enough, all the names are there.

Can anyone think of a reason why this wouldn't be a good idea, assuming the
number of entries isn't too large? I guess the biggest reason would be that
IBM's API for directory searching would insulate me from any changes to the
underlying file, right?

Michael,

You can find that info on the QUSRSYS/QATMSMTPA file. You can match the
desired User ID against the file's USERID field and get the address with a
CL statement like this one:

chgvar &emailaddr (&smtpuid *tcat '@' *tcat &domroute)

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Anyone know how to programmatically retrieve the SMTP name that's
associated
with a system distribution directory entry? I saw the API to search the
directory, but I would think there's a CL command or an API that would
give
a result back on a direct hit.

Thanks...
