SNDEMAIL - Sending e-mails with i-effect

General

The SNDEMAIL command is used to send a text or any file attachments from IBM Power Systems via e-mail. You can specify multiple recipients or copy recipients and up to 200 files from the IFS or DB2 file system. SNDMAIL sends these files as MIME attachments and works with any standard mail server.

Command parameters of SNDEMAIL (with partner and sender)

Receiver Partner ID

Select the partner you want to send the e-mail to (This option is recommended).

To send the e-mail, the e-mail profile configured at the partner is used.

To check this, go to the menu item Partner → and right click on Edit entry → *EMAIL.

There you select the desired e-mail profile under Profile ID *EMAIL.

Sender ID

Attention: If you leave this value at *NONE, the setting is taken from the module configuration of the e-mail profile (see module configuration of the e-mail module).

Please note that, unlike *EMAILTO, the address type *EMLFRM does not specify the sender address when sending with the SNDEMAIL command, but is used for partner assignment at RCVEMAIL.

If you want to use a specific sender address, select a sender ID here.

You can add or edit a sender profile under Master Data → Sender. Right-click on the entry and select Edit Entry. Under the *EMAIL tab, you can enter any e-mail address for the sender e-mail address.

Subject

Enter the subject of your e-mail here.

If you do not use a sender ID (with a linked email sending profile) you can use the profile ID instead to define an email sending profile. This prevents using the module configuration as default.
