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.

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.
