RE: rename() API & "Operation not permitted.

Rob I searched the archive and found hits on email failing to send related
to this parameter. ( ATR(*RSTDRNMUNL) )

But I am not having an issue with email failing, I have the issue that I
have thousands of files, for example QACX9W4RKW, which contain the email
message that has been sent.

I have checked the jobs;

QMSF
QTSMTPBRCL
QTSMTPBRSR
QTSMTPCLTD
QTSMTPSRVD

And yes QMSF runs under QMSF and the others under QTCP

But I can't spot any errors indicating a failure to delete / unlink a file
in /tmp

Am I misunderstanding something ?

Are you suggesting that if I follow your instructions and change the
attribute on /tmp that new email files will be deleted automatically once
the email is sent ?

Thanks

Don Brown

Yes, I can easily find links going back to 2005 describing this problem.
Basically you have jobs like QMSF running under user QMSF, the various
smtp jobs running under user QTCP and they cannot delete the others files
in /tmp.

Try the following and see if you still have that issue
endtcpsvr *smtp
endmsf
CHGATR OBJ('/tmp') ATR(*RSTDRNMUNL) VALUE(*NO) SUBTREE(*ALL)
strmsf
STRTCPSVR SERVER(*SMTP)
Send off an email.
