How does someone get the MAIL action on VMS to send MAIL via SMTP?
The DCL command is:
$MAIL/sub=stuff something.dat smtp%"""user@there"""
I've defined my USERDATA as stmp%"user@there" and smtp%"""user$there"""
and it hasn't worked yet.
Am I better off writing my own MAIL function and passing user@there as
P8?
Has anyone done this before?

Jim, is this internal to digital? if so, the mail address could be WRL::"name@node" Shaun | |||||

re: .1
No, this is at a customer site. Inside MAIL it's SMTP%"name@node".
At DCL its STMP%"""name@node""" so the double-quote gets passed to
MAIL.

Jim,
Do the following:
$ DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC CONSOLE$DEBUG ACTION
$ @SYS$STARTUP:CONSOLE$STARTUP RESTART
Now, trigger some events that are supposed to cause Mail to be sent.
You will now have the command file that ENS generates to run the action
as well as the logfile from the action routine process. Now you'll
be able to see whats wrong.
I have a suspicion that what you will need to do is modify the action
routine so that it does the proper mail command and expands the
recipient parameters within the quotes, e.g., your command could be
MAIL/SUBJECT=blah filename SMTP%"""''P1'"""
Note, P1 probably isn't the correct parameter. The filter defintion
will tell you. You want to look at whatever parameter the "Userdata"
value is and use that.
REgards,
Dan
