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.
Anyone ever try this?
Bill,
While I've never tried it, since you said you know how to do it with JCL, a very simplified approach would be to include a DD-statement for the JES2 Internal Reader and send the JCL there. Probably not very efficient, but it should work until you find a better way. [If you're using JES3, I assume JES3 has a similar function, but it's been too long since I've looked at it.]
Not pretty, but the function is there.
Carl
