In other UNIX and Linux environments typically you'd have another mail transfer agent (MTA) already available — or easily available. Popular examples include Sendmail and Postfix. (Sendmail the company was acquired by Proofpoint, so that company name may pop up.) Angus Mail (formerly JavaMail) is another option. Angus Mail runs on the IBM Semeru Runtime for z/OS. https://eclipse-ee4j.github.io/angus-mail/ I think Angus Mail requires a little more work to handle retries, checkpoints, logging, and various other important features that sendmail and postfix should handle "out of the box." Although it can be done. However, you might end up a bit biased toward sendmail since there's a sendmail bridge to CSSMTP included with z/OS UNIX. If your application is adapted to (optionally?) use the sendmail bridge to CSSMTP on z/OS then it should work similarly or identically when using sendmail as the MTA on other platforms that aren't bridged to CSSMTP. https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/3.1.0?topic=reference-sendmail-cssmtp-bridge ————— Timothy Sipples Senior Architect Digital Assets, Industry Solutions, and Cybersecurity IBM Z/LinuxONE, Asia-Pacific [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
