things today. 

Edward,

As retired mainframer pointed out, it was MY assumption about the length 
being 30. You can have whatever you want. Just change the FIXLEN=30 to 
whatever you want and change the positions of OVERLAY and SORT fields 
according to your desired length.

>>Also, the first part of the address can contain "." characters, so the 
second parse will not work correctly in all cases. 

Walt,

Not really. It does not matter as to how many "." you have before "@", the 
first field parse will ignore the ".". So as long as the string as has "@" 
character the first parse will be active and only the contents AFTER the 
"@" will be parsed by the 2nd parse field for the domain.

For example if you had a.b@email.com the first parse field for "@" 
will get the entire string a.b.c.d and the 2nd parse field for "." will 
get the email

However your scenario for "." is true for domain. As some email address 
may contain "." for domain. like for example walt.farr...@yahoo.co.uk

In the above case the name will be parsed as walt.farrell and the domain 
is ONLY parsed to yahoo instead of yahoo.co.uk 

So if OP's has various combos of records with multiple characters of "." 
in the domain name, then he needs to account for them which isn't that 
hard given that he had a template to start with. I just coded it on a 
saturday night with a sample data shown and it is an untested version.

Thanks,
Kolusu

(From RFC 822:
 addr-spec   =  local-part "@" domain; global address )

The domain is specified (Internet standard) to be case-insensitive.

The interpretation of the local-part is left entirely up to the server,
which may treat it as case-sensitive or insensitive.

If the local-part contains special characters, it must be surrounded by
quotation marks.  If there are no special characters, the quotation
marks are optional.

Mappings may make domains equivalent.  For example, my domain
may be written as "AIM.com" or "AOL.Com"

Some servers (not all) accept userID"+"subaccount as a local-part,
delivering mail to userID and allowing rules in userID's MUA to
sort messages into folders.

And a comment may be profided as a "phrase" in "mailbox"

 mailbox =  addr-spec; simple address
 /  phrase route-addr; name & addr-spec

 route-addr  =  "<" [route] addr-spec ">"

Do I understand this correctly
Intrusion detection deals with Outsiders trying to access a system ?

Where as Logging user actions and coordinating a users activity using a unique 
identifier
validates in-house or business users activities.

Do I understand the difference ?

That is not intrusion detection. Intrusion detection is a good thing, but it

The part of the email address before the @ is NOT limited to 30 characters. Nor 
is the part after the @. Also, the first part of the address can contain "." 
characters, so the second parse will not work correctly in all cases. 

If you can guarantee that the  part will always be 
present, then it might be safer to parse that part, looking for the text 
between "". But in any case you will 
risk truncating the part before the @ unless you allow for the possibility of 
it being much longer.

There's plenty of risk when running an unsupported, unpatched release. Even
leaving that important point aside, you're assuming a fact not in evidence.
z/OS 1.4 didn't have AT-TLS. AT-TLS debuted in z/OS 1.7:

https://www.ibm.com/common/ssi/rep_ca/7/897/ENUS205-167/ENUS205-167.PDF

Notably, z/OS 1.4 was Generally Available on September 27, 2002. TLS 1.1
was not even defined until April, 2006 (RFC 4346), never mind TLS 1.2 (RFC
5246 in August, 2008, and RFC 6176 in March, 2011).

FYI, the PCI Council requires an absolute minimum of TLS 1.1 (if configured
according to NIST Special Publication 800-52 Revision 1) to comply with
their Data Security Standard (DSS) Version 3.1.

A lot has happened in the past decade and a half, never mind what's soon to
happen. The "soon to happen" is also important. You simply cannot defend
yourself if you're cut off from vendor supplies of security patches or if
you don't follow a reasonable preventive maintenance program.

The 30 character limit is an assumption.  Use whatever values make sense for 
the data you are processing
