Re: v7r1 SMTP configuation

[Bradley Stone <bvstone@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yep, what Rich said is what I've found too.

Double check other settings too, especially if you were using host table
entries before for any of the names/ips.  It's possible they weren't set up.

If you ever want to get away from using the IBM SMTP Server and not worry
about it's archaic/confusing set up, contact me offline.  Our MAILTOOL Plus
product will do all this for you.  Saves a lot of headaches like this (as
well as other features).  Even allows SSL, TLS, and authentication.
