RE: Emails with Japanese text

Rather than using iconv, is it not easier to concatenate character and Unicode fields within RPGLE ?

I've tried this also but I still didn't get it right. I created IFS file in CCSID 5035, but rather than change the attribute to 1208, I copied it to another stmf, CCSID 1208.

What you need to do is the following:

let say you have a EBCDIC SBCS field name 'FieldA' and you have a EBCDIC DBCS field name FieldB with you chinese characters.

You can then make the following conversions with ICONV into allocated storage that may be added to the CGIDEV2 output buffer.

FieldA EBCDIC SBCS from 0:1208
FieldB EBCDIC DBCS from 5035:1208

You can then save the buffer into a file with CCSID 65535 or 0 (no
conversion) and make
a change attribute to the IFS file to CCSID 1208.

I have som procedures and a CGIDEV2 version that makes it easier up and running in beta but it is not fully operational yet.

A proof of concept are here:

I'm interested.

I've been creating IFS in CCSID 1208 with automatic translation form
job CCSID to IFS.

I've been formatting the email with: -

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Sean

what I think you are trying to do is to mix SBCS and DBCS EBCDIC into
one mime message. This can be done but it is tricky and requires the
end result to be in UTF-8 or UTF-8 EBCDIC

If you are interested I will describe how it is done.

Thanks, Sean. PRobably a DBCS issue... I'll see what I can do on my end.

Brad,

Example text would be: -

三井物産㈱三井石油化学

This is a vendor name. According to Google Translate, this means
"Mitsui
&
Co., Ltd. Mitsui Petrochemical".

Thanks,
Sean

Have you tried our MAITLTOOL command? You can get it from
www.bvstools.com/mailtool.html.

Or, better yet, if you want to send me the text you're trying to
email I'll try it from my machine to see if I can play with the
CCSID settings
to
get it working.

I'm sending emails from the IBM i but when these emails contain
Japanese text (from database with CCSID 5035) in Subject and
body of email, the Japanese text is corrupt when received in Outlook.

I've tried various ways using combinations of CGIDEV2, SMTPR4,
RPGMail, SNDM. Still haven't got it right.

Is anyone able to provide guidance on how to achieve this
requirement ?

Thanks
