An RCI makes it easier to, e.g., migrate PS to ESDS, since you don't have to

Messages in z/OS do not wrap and are not formatted. Messages are written using
either WTO (single message) or MLWTO (multiple lines of a message). WTO allows
you to write a single message which I think has a max length of somewhere
around 128 bytes. Multi-line messages are multiple MLWTO's

was incorrect in posing my original question because the file to be sent is

This has been a headscratcher to me for a long time. I tried similar example:

FSVO needed. If you want the space freed when the e-mail is sent instead of
waiting for the job to end, then you need SPIN=UNALLOC. If you don't care then
you don't.

Surely a simple answer is: you have to do it yourself.
In general, it is likely impossible because you do not know if the
customer might be setting the clock to their local time and not using the
protocols such as having the clock be UTC with the timezone being the
offset from UTC.

Eileen, the issue is not how to issue the command, but the fact that the

Easiest way but not exact would be to issue a the command, then use something
like OSHELL sleep command for some number of seconds in the jobstream.
Don't forget to assign yourself the right security definitions for, e.g.,
