Tim,

We had to use all the cheapest ways to get around, to it is not
spectacular at all, but it looks like this...

A CBT product called TSSO picks up the message from the log and executes
a rexx to send to the service provider... TSSO also passes on the
relevant info to populate msgstring...
The TSSO table looks something like this...

000087 EQQ036IP TABENTRY MSG=EQQE036I,TEST=((S,14,1,'P'),(L,01)),
X
000088                ACTION=OSCMD,ECHO=LOG,
X
000089                TEXT='+JOBFAIL \S010,62\'

The rexx... something like this...

/* JOBFAIL REXX
Trace "N"
Arg msgstring
"ALLOC FI(SMTP) SYSOUT(B) WRITER(SMTP) REUSE"
Queue "HELO euroconex.com "
Queue "MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "
Queue "RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "
Queue "DATA "
Queue "DATE:   " Date() Time() "GMT "
Queue "SUBJECT: " msgstring
Queue ""
"EXECIO * DISKW SMTP (FINIS"
"FREE FI(SMTP)"
Exit

Hope this helps, and yes our OPS guys are still getting their messages
as we speak...

And a Prosperous new year to everyone, with lots of new mainframes sold,
and lots of new opportunities seeing the light.

Regards

Herbie

You may want to look at the replacement (new version) of AF/Remote - SA
IOM
which has this function and I've used it successfully.
