Hi All,

Have an interesting challenge. I have a requirement that dictates
that email be sent from an MVS (z/OS) cobol program. In
oversimplified terms, this means that I'd read a file that would
contain email addresses and based on various criteria send email to
any number of those addresses. I know how to send email from JCL, but
require more precision than JCL can give me.

Let me see if I have this straight... you have a dataset containing email
addresses and you want to select a sub-set of these addresses to which an
email will be sent?

It seems like there needs to be something along with the email addresses
to differentiate them into lists or groups before you can do this. How
are the email addresses to be chosen for mailings?

DD

Not necessarily. How I determine who needs to be emailed isn't
entirely relevant. What i need is a subroutine or operating system
call that'll actually send the email.
