RE: Domain Name on Email sent from iseries

Hi

Yes, we know that. We used the command:
CHGTCPDMN HOSTNAME('iseries') DMNNAME('company.com')

And our emails have a from address of: userprofile@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

So we don't understand Rob's suggestion. What are we not understanding?

Rob... do emails sent out by your iseries have a from address of: userprofile@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
or userprofile@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thank you

or CHGTCPDMN
Host name . . . . . . . . . . . 'GDISYS'
Domain name . . . . . . . . . . 'corp.dekko.com'

Now that you know that, what do you do about that?

Hi
When the iSeries sends email, using SDNSMTPEMM command, how does it
determine the domain part of the sender's email?
Our email is being sent out with a from address like this:
userprofile@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It should look like this:
userprofile@xxxxxxxxxxx

Why is the "iseries" part being added to the domain?

If we add the user profile to the directory (WRKDIRE) and specify the SMTP
address (F19=Change name for SMTP) for the user, the email from address
comes comes from there and appears as we want it to appear.

If we don't add the user profile to the directory, email can still be
sent, but the from address is, "userprofile.iseries.company.com"

Do we have to add each user to the directory? Then specify the SMTP user
id and SMTP domain for each user?

We're trying to avoid having to add directory entries and SMTP user ids
for hundreds of users.

Here are the 4 commands we used to configure email on the the iSeries:
CHGTCPDMN HOSTNAME('iseries') DMNNAME('company.com')
CHGTCPHTE INTNETADR('10.555.55.55') HOSTNAME((company.com) (iseries))
CHGSMTPA RTYDAY(0 0) RTYHOUR(0 0) MAILROUTER('EXCHANGE.COM')
FIREWALL(*YES) DIALSCD(*NO)
ADDDIRE USRID(INTERNET SMTPRTE) USRD('SMTP email') SYSNAME(INTERNET)
PREFADR(*NETUSRID *IBM ATCONTXT)


Thank you
