I see: final String username = "smtp-username"; final String password = "smtp-password";
Rather than hard-coding, could these be extracted from RACF (or other?) database? Or kept in suitably protected user-specific files? What about headers? Ideally, I might expect: From: z/OS-ID Sender: "smtp-username" or: Reply-to: z/OS-ID But would GMail or a corporate mail server tolerate these, which might appear to be used for forgeries or mail-bombing? Hardcoding these or a corporate server should not be a problem: props.put("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com"); props.put("mail.smtp.port", "587"); Might these be publicized (not stored) on CBTTAPE.org to attract users to Black Hill's storefront? -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
