Smtp on Tandem?

[Ken Dorfman]

I would like to send an e-mail message from our D3x K10,000 system.
We currently have Tandem Tcp/Ip, but not Transfer. I would like to
avoid setting up a full mail system like Tandem's Psmail or Tsims,
just to send a few messages (outgoing only). The idea would be to
have a Netbatch job send a system summary/exception report. Any
suggestions on how to send e-mail from the Tandem platform?

One of my colleagues once wrote a small, unsupported, undocumented prgram
to send mail messages. I can send you the source when I'm back in the
office. If other want a copy, let me know (m...@wxs.nl)

Ken,

We ( Transaction Innovation Corp.) have released a new product called TeleMail.
The product allows you to send a job to the spooler and we pick it up and
either convert it to .PDF format or leave it as text, format a mail message and
send it to a SMTP process we wrote and off to the destination. The e-mail
address is either sent with the job to the spooler (following a command e-mail
id) or looked up in a table based on a specified spooler location extension
e.g. #mail.ken

Information is available on our web site at ticsoftware.com or just e-mail me
at di...@ticsoftware.com.
