MMAIL |
MMAIL commands EMLMSG, EMLSRCM, EMLSPL, EMLSPL2, EMLSAVF, EMLSTMF and EMLSTMF2 use a source member for the text of the message body and the related programs execute a STRSEU command to edit the source member. The following enhancement has now been provided. If command STRSEU is not available (a very common case on production boxes, where PDM is not installed), the EML... programs, instead of STRSEU, send a display file screen that allows the user to edit the source member text. If the user presses F3 from this screen, then command EDTF is executed. |
| June 9, 2012 |
MMAIL |
MMail allows not only to send mail messages, but also to receive mail messages addressed to given user accounts. This can be done through the MMAIL-integrated utility named "AMailer". Incoming mail messages can be received and processed through a local program on a IBM System i box. Both Internet and System i locally defined user accounts are supported. AMailer" provides tools to define such accounts. System i locally defined user accounts are supported through "AMailer" generated user profiles. However, a System i box can be already supporting mail exchange among local users using existing user profiles.The good news is that now "AMailer" is also able to generate its mail accounts by referring to existing system profiles. In this way, already existing local mail user environments may take advantage of processing through local programs the incoming mail to local accounts. Read here. |

CCGIWRKDBF |
Steady Headers is a special feature of the CgiWRKDBF utility. It allows to keep the column headers steady, while the table is being scrolled. This feature is driven by the server CGI program, after receiving information from the browser about the screen height.This piece of information is acquired when the utility is started from its first page, while no such information used to be made available when the utility is started on its second page via URL http://.../cgiwrkdbfp/wrkdbf.pgm?xrequest=CMD&xfilename=aaa&xlibname=bbb Thats has now been fixed. Note for FireFox users - FireFox 4.0 has dropped the support for the HTML tags TBODY and THEAD, in the sense they are no longer interpreted as block-groups (as tag DIV does).TBODY and THEAD tags are the base for handling Steady Headers. As a consequence, the Steady Headers feature no longer works with FireFox 4.0, while it still works with I.E. 9.0 . |
| June 11, 2011 |
MMAIL |
It was found that MMAIL utility CVTSPLFPDF (while able to convert to PDF *SCS and *AFPDS spool files) will fail in converting to PDF *IPDS, *AFPDSLINE and *LINE spool files (Error message: QwpzHostPrintTransform failed : CPF6DF8 hptopt = 30). On the other site it was found that MMAIL utility CVTSPLSTMF, besides converting *SCS spool files, has no problems in converting to PDF *IPDS, *AFPDSLINE and *LINE spool files. We have therefore updated subprocedure MimeSplfPDF in such a way that, when requested to process a PDF conversion for an *IPDS, *AFPDSLINE or *LINE spool file via CVTSPLFPDF, it calls CVTSPLSTMF instead. |
| June 10, 2011 |

CGICBLDEV2 |
Subprocedures QZhbGetVar and QZhbGetVarUpper of service program CGICBLDEV2/CGICBLDEV2, when called from COBOL program, no longer work with OS/400 release V6R1. Reason is that those subprocedures return a 32767 char variable, while the COBOL program is usually expecting a shorter character variable. This is why those two subprocedure have now been changed and now return a 1000 char variable. COBOL programs calling those subprocedures should be changed accordingly. |

for the FTP session associated to a given user profile. This is driven by three new fields added to the FTP user profile authorization records (file SECTCP/USRPRF). |
| August 21, 2008 |
MMAIL |
- Fixed an error in the subprocedure that decodes a quoted-printable string.
- Command EMLMSG is now supporting a null message body. In such a case, the message will contain just the subject.
- Content-type: multipart/alternative now supported for the message body.
That allows the message body to be available both as text/plain and as text/html. The choice is then up to the preferences specified for the receiving mailer. See subprocedure MimeImbTxtF in page http://www.easy400.net/mmailh/srvpgm.htm#P066. Most EML... commands are now using this technique. - Changed USER parameter in command MNGSPLF. It was defaulting to *ALL, now it defaults to *CURRENT .
|
| August 20, 2008 |
IFSTOOL |
A new parameter - IGNSTMF(*NO/*YES) - was added to command IFSTOOL/READDIR. If IGNSTMF(*YES) specified, the generated list of IFS objects does not include the stream files. That may help, when listing complex IFS directories: just the existing subdirectories would be listed. |

| April 3, 2007 |
POP3READ |
It was found that some undue (control) characters were generated in the texts of the received e-mail messages. That was due to API QDCXLATE, which is no longer used. |
| March 1, 2007 |
MMAIL |
Fixed a bug in subprocedure MimeSplPdf (used by command EMLSPL). The bug was generated in the January 19th release. MimeSplPdf was no longer able to convert a spool file to PDF when the preferred conversion tool happened to be CVTSPLSTMF. Besides it was found that in some cases the PDF's generated by CVTSPLSTMF within MimeSplPdf subprocedure could not be processed by Adobe (error 110). That was also fixed. |
| January 19, 2007 |
MMAIL |
Subprocedure MimeSplPdf can now receive an optional parameter, the name to be assigned to the PDF file. This may result to more understandable names, when spool files converted to PDF's are attached to MIME messages. The code was contributed by Carlo Arnaboldi, Italy. |
| January 11, 2007 |
MMAIL |
Please note that the minimum OS/400 release to install MMAIL is V5R1. In the current release a fix has been added for boxes running V5R1. Command MMAIL/CHGJOBCSID used to call API QLGRTVDC (to compute the default CCSID from system value QLANGID). However, this API was made available with V5R2. An alternate solution has now been provided for V5R1 installations. |
| January 8, 2007 |
POP3READ |
A fix was applied to subprocedure pop3login which was entering a never ending loop in the case where the user or the password were rejected by the pop server. |
| December 21, 2006 |
POP3READ |
A new open source utility, an ILE-RPG POP Client allowing to receive and store on IFS directories mail messages from any POP Server, provided you know user names and passwords. See this page. |
| September 25, 2006 |
MMAIL |
A more recent version of command CVTSPLFPDF was made available. Command MMAIL/CVTSPLFPDF is based on two libraries: HPT and TIFFLIB. A more recent version of those two libraries was downloaded from site UZAEMON's Homepage. |
| September 13, 2006 |
MMAIL |
New MimeRtnPth subprocedure allows to generate MIME header Return-path. This header allows to specify an e-mail address where error messages (bounce messages) should be returned to. See page http://www.easy400.net/mmailh/srvpgm.htm#Q04. Warning. Programs referring service program mmail/sendmail may bump out after reinstalling library MMAIL and need to be re-compiled. |
| August 11, 2006 |
MMAIL |
Command MMAIL/STREMLSPLF was added two more parameters in order to support the name and the e-mail address of the sender. |
| August 5, 2006 |
MMAIL |
Some users found that MIME files containing just attachment(s) but no message body used to be rejected by SPAM filters of receiving mailers. This was found to be due to a flaw in subprocedure "MimeImbNul (Imbed a null body)". That subprocedure was not providing a boundary delimiter. |
| July 28, 2006 |
MMAIL |
Command MMAIL/RESEND was fixed. It will no longer try to resend stream files in directory /mmail/temp other than mmail-generated MIME files. |
| July 26, 2006 |
MMAIL |
A bug was fixed in subprocedure "MimeSplPdf" (Convert a spool file to PDF and attach it to the MIME file). This procedure used to bump out when the spool file could not be found. In such a case, now this subprocedure would return without attaching the spool file and an error message would be logged on the external message queue. |
| May 22, 2006 |
SECTCP & WSECTCP |
A design change has been implemented. In previous releases, the only user profile allowed to define SECTCP protections was QSECOFR. In many iSeries installations, however, QSECOFR user profile is not really accessible. In this release, the only user profile allowed to define SECTCP protections is a USRCLS(*SECOFR) user profile identified during SECTCP installation. Please note that installation of the new release of WSECTCP has as a prerequisite the installation of the new release of SECTCP (previously installed releases of SECTCP are no good for the new release of WSECTCP). |
| May 2, 2006 |
MMAIL |
After the sending of an e-mail, the MMAIL service program was entering a delay job of 5 seconds. That was done to fix some unknown errors in the QTMMSENDMAIL API when subject to high frequence messaging. That delay job has now been removed. Instead, a timestamp is saved after a message has been sent. On the next message, the service program computes the time elapsed since the last previous message, and it makes sure it is at least 5 seconds. In this way, users sending interactive messages would experience a better response time. |
| February 15, 2006 |
MMAIL |
Two new WEB utilities made available. They allow a WEB user to work with spool files and writers. See this page. |
| February 11, 2006 |
MMAIL |
Fixes asked by some customers:- Fixed the srvpgm used by the Windows utility
- Some EML... commands were sending messages with attachments but without message body. An empty message body is now generated when no message body requested by the user. This should take care of some odd behaviors of the receiving mailers, as an user did report.
- The new 5250 utility MNGSPLF did run into problems when issuing commands CHGSPLFA or WRKSPLA with an OS/400 release older than V5R1, because the CRTDATE parameter was not supported. The installed OS/400 release is now tested, and the CRTDATE parameter is now provided from V5R1 on.
|
| January 9, 2006 |
MMAIL |
Several changes/ enhancements:- Minimum OS/400 req. now V4R5 (was V5R1)
- PDF manual available at http://www.easy400.net/mmail/manual/MMAIL_Manual.pdf
- Search engine available; maybe used for other sites
- command SPLTOPDF to convert spool files to PDF via your favorite conversion tool
- command MNGSPLF similar to WRKSPLF, but providing new input parameters, and allowing for spool file e-mail, and conversion to .txt, .html, and .pdf stream files.

MMAIL |
"bcc" requirement. Blank copy adressees should not be reported in the destination headers of a MIME file. They should just be mentioned to the SendMail subprocedure. In order to explain how this can be implemented, all the programs invoked from MMAIL/EML... commands have been updated in order to fulfill such "bcc" requirement. |
| November 3, 2005 |
MMAIL |
- On charge utility AFPTOOL is no longer distributed by MMAIL. It is still supported by MMAIL, but it should be downloaded from site BVS tools
- internal subprocedure rtvbndr (retrieve part boundary delimiter) was returning a blank boundary delimiter when not preceded by the internal subprocedure setbndr (set part boundary delimiter). The internal subprocedure setbndr is called by user subprocedure MimeMultiP, while the internal subprocedure rtvbndr is called by user subprocedures MimeWrtB (add a boundary record), MimeImbAtt (imbed or attach an IFS file), and MimeClose (Close a MIME file).
This used to result to the wrong MIME files (not understandable by the receiver) whenever the process building the MIME file was not using subprocedure MimeMultiP. This is now fixed: in such cases a default part boundary delimiter is generated.

MMAIL |
In the Easy400Group, Tom Graham reported that on V5R3 command CvtSplfPdf was receiving a QwpzHostPrintTransform error. After much investigation, he found that program HPT/SPL2STMFRP was missing to initialize some fields in a routine. Tom Graham fix is included in this MMAIL release. |
| August 17, 2005 |
MMAIL |
Version 1.3.0 of the Windows utility made available. See page www.easy400.net/mmailh/wmimemenu.htm . |

| August 12, 2005 |
EASY400APC |
Updated Apache HTTP directives. |
| August 5, 2005 |
MMAIL |
There was a problem with turkish language. In the multipart delimiter, the double quotes in BOUNDARY="..." were converted to Ü. The result was that the receiving mailer could not understand the subsequent headers, such as "Content-type: ...". The problem was fixed in this release. |
| August 3, 2005 |
WEBACT |
EASY400 user profile no longer needed to run WebAct (iSeries WEB Access Toolkit). |
| August 1, 2005 |
MMAIL |
Changed the multipart delimiter. It was suspected being the reason for failures of some receiving mailers. The multipart delimiter now- has a different layout
- is no longer static, is dynamically built.
See procedures setBndr and rtvBndr in RPG module XXXMIME. |
| July 29, 2005 |
CGIDEV2 |
IBM has assigned maintenance and support of CGIDEV2 to the IBM profit center Client Technology Center. As a consequenceCGIDEV2 in no longer available for download from this Easy400 site (the download page provides a link to the CTC)All CGIDEV2 support should be asked to the CTC person in charge for that, Rich Diedrich. |
