Hi
A few years ago, here in house , we have discussed shortly the
possibility to react for some incoming mails, but all the problems with
security , SPAM etc persuaded us not to go in this way.

Hello list,
many of our batch jobs take their input from data sent us by means of e-mail
attachments.
Attachments are manually stored on PCs, uploaded to z/OS, then batch starts.
This is obviously
a manual and error prone process. Therefore I ve been asked to see if it's
possible to setup z/OS
in order to receive and handle e-mails and their attachments which will
eventually feed our batch.
Having already SMTP for outbound e-mails, I started from it and, thanks to
Steve Comstock's SMTP
saga on ibm-main, I've been able to set it up to receive e-mails. But the TSO
RECEIVE seems not
to be able to handle attachments,unless I missed something.
Before reading the many publication on this matter, I would like to ask what
would you recommend
for this goal.
SMTP or sendmail ?
Any other valid ISV alternatives ?
Any pointer to publications/Redbooks which would help ?
Your input is highly appreciated.
