Re: Emal from RPG - Error

Hi Scott,

I did not change your Service Program, we were using MS Exchange as our mail
server but last week we change it to Zimbra Server then only this started.
(we have not done any changes in our i)

So for a solution I have hard coded the host name. then it start working.

Thanking you

Chamara

Hi Chamara,

My copy of SMTPR4 does the following:

if ( gethostname(hostbuf: %size(hostbuf)) = 0);
host = %str(%addr(hostbuf));
else;
host = 'unknown';
endif;

...then later...

msg = 'HELO ' + host + CRLF;
if ( sendtext(p_SMTP: msg) = *OFF );
return *OFF;
endif;

In your log, it shows the HELO command being sent without a host name
following it. I don't understand how that could happen! It should
either say 'HELO myhostname.com' or 'HELO unknown'? Have you modified
SMTPR4?

Please also check dil4cha

option 12. The 'Host name' and 'domain name'
fields are what determines the host that gethostname() returns.

Also, each routine (SMTP_Connect, SMTP_From, SMTP_Recip, SMTP_data_xxx,
etc) reports whether it succeeded or failed by returning an indicator to
your routine. You appear to be ignoring the success/fail indicator, and
continuing on with the program, even if something failed.
