RE: Question regarding SNDDST

With respect, Alan, there was a lot more to my reply than that.

My money's on the recipient's junk mailbox. No telling how much time we have
lost to that.

Thanks for your reply Dennis, unfortunately none of these options are
able to tell me if an e-mail was successful or not

A) Nothing obvious to me. One thought is: You cannot send a message if
you are not in the system directory, so if you were doing this under
different IDs, you might want to look there. Another would be to look
at the joblog of the job where the first (failed) entry was sent.
Anything there? Next, take your successful mail, remove your ID and
send again. Finally, look in the recipients trash/junk/suspect/spam
folder(s).

B) No, since the entries are queued rather than delivered by SNDDST

C) Go CMDDST. Look especially at option 8 (DSPDSTLOG) and 9 (DSPDSTSRV)
but you may find other useful options also.

A weird thing is beginning to happen with using the SNDDST We had

some

users complain that they did not receive a particular file sent from
the system using SNDDST (see 1. below)

1.
SNDDST TYPE(*DOC)
TOINTNET((emailgroup@xxxxxxxx)
(*NONE *CC) (*NONE *CC)) DSTD('ARCANE
FILE') DOC(DOCFILE.TXT) FLR(DOCFLDR)

The file was still there, so I wrote a quick CLLE program to e-mail
the file using the same SNDDST command I then realized I should have
included myself, so I changed the SNDDST command to below

2.
SNDDST TYPE(*DOC)
TOINTNET((emailgroup@xxxxxxxx)
(alanshore@xxxxxxxx *CC) (*NONE *CC)) DSTD('ARCANE
FILE') DOC(DOCFILE.TXT) FLR(DOCFLDR)

I contacted the person involved, and they replied that they had only
received one e-mail, the one with my e-mail address in it

Three questions
A. Does anyone see why the first SNDDST should have a problem B. Is
there anyway to determine within the program if the e-mail from the
SNDDST command was not received C. Is there anyway to determine
outside of the program (after the fact) if the e-mail from the SNDDST
command was not received
