Hi Ed et al, A little rambling here (so please excuse) ....
I wasn't sure what to put in for the HELO statement (I found out that at SMTP start up the host name is DEVVM and domain name is muhc.mcgill.ca) so at first I wasn't sure so I put in "HELO DEVVM.muhc.mcgill.ca" and then did a SENDFILE to user SMTP. It didn't seem to get delivered so I tried again with "HELO muhc.mcgill.ca" I got a response back from that one after a couple of minutes (I think it was from that one). Anyways it appeared both got through but which one is the correct one and does it make a difference? I was also wondering how VM user smtp knows which client mail server to contact? For TCP/IP for VSE, I needed to specify the actual IP address of the server but not for VM, I believe. Thanks for your example. Please send example of sending attachment Regards Mike -----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ed Zell Sent: September 5, 2006 9:18 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Newbie on SMTP > My questions are: How to send with a subject line, how > to change "from" address and any other options I can > potentially use.

Here is a CMS file that will send an email from my work account to my home account. I simply send the file to SMTP after I am done editing it. Letme know if you would like an example that sends an attachment along with the email.
