From AI:
================
How the Change Allowed Indicator works:
Change not allowed ('0')
The command cannot be changed by the exit program if:
The command is library-qualified (e.g., QSYS/WRKJOB).
The command has a parameter defined with RTNVAL(*YES), such as in RTV
(Retrieve) commands.
The command has parameters defined with DSPINPUT(*NO) or DSPINPUT(*PROMPT).
The command is running in a system state program.
==============
No to 1, 2 or 3. 4 not sure.

Any ideas why? SNDDST seems to be ok, but I have a feeling more
are using SNDSMTPEMM as SNDDST is pretty old and outdated and
uses folders instead of IFS files for attachments.

Hi Bradley,
I personally don't see any issues with using your own program
in
Forof an IBM program. I've done it for years.
Just be aware, on an upgrade or major TR, things may get undone.
youthis reason, I always create a "syschgpgm" that has the
documented customization's in source to make all the
"modifications" that your system has. This way, after an
upgrade when things are "undone",
needcan simply run the syschgpgm and things are put back they way
they
higher into be.
Also, I liked saw the reply about placing customized commands
ownthe system Library List. This is an excellent Idea. Create
your
from theOVRSYS or something Library and place it in the system library
List above QSYS. This way, you can place all the
customization's OVRSYS library. It will minimize the Un-doing.
If you get too wild, you can always Remove your custom Library
IBMsystem library list before an upgrade or PTF Apply.

For a while I've toyed with the idea of either:
1. Renaming the IBM command in QSYS and duplicating the
control.using my own processing program to call MAILTOOL in the
background, basically so I know the full command details and parameters.
2. Changing the processing program to something else I can

of course would mean I'd need to find the parameter sizes,

This really stems from MS setting their deadline for OAuth 2.0

An update on this. The SNDSMTPEMM command has a DSPINPUT(*PROMPT)
parameter on it (password) so the exit point cannot be used.
Luckily the command is pretty simple and making a replacement should
be easy.
