     Purpose                                                                    
   
                                                                              
     Use the STARMSG stage to write lines from a CP message service. STARMSG 
uses  
     Inter-User Communication Vehicle (IUCV) to connect to a message service 
(such 
     as *ACCOUNT, *ASYNCMD, *LOGREC, *MSG, *MSGALL, or *SYMPTOM). A STARMSG 
stage  
     can be used only as the first stage of a pipeline.                         
   
                                                                              
     Note:  Before issuing STARMSG, you must use the IUCV directory control     
   
            statement to authorize yourself to connect to a CP message service. 
For
            more information about the IUCV statement, see the z/VM: CP 
Planning   
            and Administration book. YOU MUST ALSO ISSUE THE CP COMMAND SET MSG 
   
            IUCV TO ENSURE MESSAGES WILL BE PASSED TO THE VIRTUAL MACHINE 
THROUGH  
            IUCV IF A CONNECTION TO THE MESSAGE SYSTEM SERVICE EXISTS. For more 
   
            information about the SET MSG IUCV command, see the z/VM: CP 
Commands  
            and Utilities Reference book.                                       
   

The 2nd sentence in the "Note:" is your first concern.
You must "CP SET MSG IUCV" before using STARMSG.

That should at least get you to the next series of issues/questions:-)

Subject: Help with STARMSG

I need a little help in coding a PIPELINE using STARMSG, not having much
experience with this stage.   What I have is an EXEC that sends email
(via MAILIT EXEC).  I now wish to capture the messages sent back from
the SMTP server to log.  For instance:

 

* From SMTP: Received Spool File 0028


* From SMTP: Mail delivered to: <[email protected]>                 

* From SMTP: Mail delivered to: <[email protected]>             

* From SMTP: Unable to deliver mail to: <[email protected]>

 

I tried, as a test:

 

"PIPE (endchar ?)",      

    "|  STARMSG *MSGALL",

    "|  CONSOLE",        

"?      LITERAL +15",    

    "|  DELAY",          

    "|  PIPESTOP"        

 

But never received a response (echoed by the CONSOLE stage), instead I
still received the MSG (as above).
