So, our first PS 80 dataset contains something like this...
HELO EAI1.EPSON.COM
MAIL FROM:<[email protected]>
RCPT TO:<[email protected]>
DATA
FROM: [email protected]
TO: [email protected]
SUBJECT: (TEST) Sku Download Exception
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: txt/plain; name="SKUEXP110117.TXT"
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="SKUEXP110117.TXT"
I am be incorrect but the DATA Statement needs to be the LAST header
(ie: After the Content-Disposition: Header in this case).
You are also missing MIME Separators. There needs to be a
boundary="SOME-TEXT-STRING on the Content-Type header. ie:
Content-Type: txt/plain; name="SKUEXP110117.TXT"; boundary="SOME-TEXT-STRING"
You also need to wrap your data in separators like this:
The Second containing looks like
--SOME-TEXT-STRING
xxxx, yyyy, zzz, etc
--SOME-TEXT-STRING--
The system is choking on the malformed message. Note that the
SOME-TEXT-STRING can be anything that does not occur in your data. It
is proceeded in the data by -- and the last section is the string
prefixed and suffixed by -- (as I showed). It also has to be separate
lines. The formatting is more complex than I showed but for a single
attachment, the above will work. If you want to send more than one
attachment, contact me offline or ask here and I will give you the
correct structure.
