Perhaps a search of your Control Language source code for the SNDDST command or use PRTCMDUSG CMD(SNDDST) to analyze the program objects will help narrow it down to the program which is sending the emails.

Our email administrator (non iSeries) has come to me with a problem: There is some process on our iSeries that is spitting out emails every few minutes to a fat- fingered address. I'm new to the system and have not found anything in the usual places (job scheduler, Robot, etc). The iSeries isn't running the SMTP service, so I can't check any logging from that side.

In order to track this down, I was thinking of doing a communications trace on our iSeries. I realize that the trace may or may not give me the actual job that's producing the emails, but I'm hoping that I can get pointed in the right direction based on the content of the email. However, it's a production system and I've never done a trace before, so I wanted to get a sense of the impact that this would have on the system. Will a trace of all traffic destined to port 25 of a singe IP address have adverse effects on system performance? If so, are there less detrimental ways of finding out where these emails are coming from?
