Question:
We are using CSSMTP and Emails sent out of Vantage GOA scripts are not received.
Which VKGPARMS are required to send Emails using CSSMTP?
Answer:
With CSSMTP be sure the SMTPSTC VKGPARM specifies the external writer name used in the CSSMTP configuration.
Check the ExtWrtName statement in the configuration date set from the CONFIG DD statement or issue F CSSMTP,DISPLAY,CONFIG and check the value for EXTWRTNAME.
For example:
F CSSMTP,DISPLAY,CONFIG
EZD1829I CSSMTP CONFIGURATION: 056
CONFIGFILENAME : //'TCPIP.CSSMTP.CONF'
LOGFILENAME : SYSOUT
PID : 16777227
LOGLEVEL : 7 USEREXIT : NONE
CHKPOINTSIZELIMIT : 64000 CHKPOINT : NONE
CONFIG CODEPAGE : IBM-1047
TRANSLATE : ibm-1047 MBCS : NO
START OPTION TCPNAME : N/A IPV6 ENABLED : NO
EXTWRTNAME : SMTP HOST NAME : hostname
...
...
In this case the EXTWRTNAME is SMTP and thus SMTPSTC (SMTP) needs to be specified in VKGPARMS.
