this is the scenario,,,
can any one tell me now generated report i need to send it to customer where can i specify email id

First, you must contact your site support group to find out the name of the SMTP started task running at your site. This is usually SMTP but it does not have to be.

Second, you need to know the output class to use for emails -- often this is B but we use 9 (it all depends upon the site).

Third, you use JCL similar to this:Note the attachment data set is assumed to be 80 byte LRECL. If it is not, you'll need to put the instream data into data sets with the same LRECL and concatenate them. Also note that 998 is the longest LRECL you're allowed to use. The trailing period is not optional -- if you don't have it, the email will not be sent.

Note the attachment data set is assumed to be 80 byte LRECL. If it is not, you'll need to put the instream data into data sets with the same LRECL and concatenate them.

Can you please brief little more...I am thankful to you for passing this JCL however my PS is 121 in LRECL and will not mail for obvious reasons so can you please tell me a little more briefly how can I solve this issue....

Create two files with LRECL 121. In the first file, place all the SMTP statements (HELO, MAIL FROM, ....). In the second file, place a single line with a period in the first byte. Instead of using in-stream DD statements for your email, concatenate the three files (the first file you created with the SMTP commands, the file you want to be an attachment, then the second file you created with the period).

Robert Thanks for your help...Hope one day I am just like you and help others...

However for the time being this is the JCL that worked...


CORRUPT1 AND 3 ARE DATASETS AS DIRECTED BY ROBERT AND DUMM2 HAS THE DSN THAT NEEDS TO BE ATTACHED...PERIOD IS IMPORTANT AND IS NOT THEIR JUST LIKE THAT!!

Thanks Robert again

Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you got it working.

And thank you for sharing your solution

This worked fine till 2011 Dec and now from last 4 weeks I am getting this in the attachment. The DSN which has multiple files is how it should be on mainframes something is going wrong with the emailing part and I dont know where to start looking.

Hello,

I dont know where to start looking.

I believe the diagnostic info gives a hint:

Have you talked with the system administrator(s)? If not, do so.

You probably have not done anything "wrong" (unless something was changed), but have been denied for some system reason (i.e. too much data, too many files, etc).
