Other utilities

On request of some "MIME & Mail" users, some helpful utilies have been made available and are documented in this page. These utilities are invoked through commands, which make their use in programs very easy. They are also rather straight forward coded, can be easily read, and provide a simple way to understand how mmail/sendmail service program subprocedures can be invoked.

You may also access these utilities through a menu: go mmail/mail .

Important note on commands
In order to be properly executed, all the following commands need the MMAIL library (or its clone library) be in the job library list.

  1. E-mail a simple message
  2. E-mail source members
  3. E-mail spool files
  4. E-mail save files

 Preformatted message body  . . .   N           N, Y

Subject: Subject of the message
Sender's name: Name of the person sending the message (see Note 3 below)
Sender's address: E-mail address of the person sending the message (see Note 3 below)
Recipients: up to 50 recipients can be specified; for each recipient the following must be given:
  • destination type: *TO, *CC, or *BCC
  • recipient name, within quotes
  • e-mail address, within quotes
Text source file: qualified name of the source file with the member containing the text to be e-mailed. If '*DFT' specified, library name and text source member name need not be specified: a QTEMP source file is generated and a default member name is assigned. *DFT is not supported in batch execution.
Text source member: name of the source member containing the text to be sent with the message.
Importance: *LOW=low, *MED=medium, *HIG=high
Priority: *NUR=non-urgent, *NRM=normal, *URG=urgent
Sensitivity: *NRM=normal, *PRS=personal, *PRV=private, *CNF=confidential
(use command mmail/setconfid to set the confidentiality statement).
Reply-to e-mail address: E-mail address of the person to receive reply messages, if different from the sender
Return receipt: whether a receipt should be returned to the sender when the recipient opens the message.
Save directory: IFS directory to contain a copy of the e-mailed MIME file, or *NONE .
Preformatted message body: Whether the message body should be presented as preformatted text. A preformatted text is a text where all characters (including spaces) have the same width. Examples are texts including text tables (not html tables, of course).

Example:

MMAIL/EMLMSG SUBJECT('Announcement of a new software') FROMNAME('John Evans') FROMADDR('jevans@mail.com') TO('dooley@superstar.com'/'Tom Dooley'/*TO) TXTF(QGPL/MESSAGES) TXTMBR(MSG705) RECEIPT(*YES)

Note 1. This command can run both in the interactive and in the batch environment.
Note 2. When running interactive, the source member is edited prior to sending the message.
Note 3- Fetching sender's name and e-mail from the system distribution directory
If the current user profile is enrolled in the system distribution directory (you may use command WRKDIRE to check it out) and its directory entry specifies a full name and an e-mail address (use F19 and check fields titled "SMTP user ID" and "SMTP domain"), then the sender's name and e-mail address are automatically fetched into command parameters FROMNAME and FROMEMAIL when the command is prompted.
(Command WRKNAMSTP, alias table type = system, provides another way to display / maintain e-mail addresses)
If the command is executed without prompting, to obtain the same you must specify FROMNAME(*DIRENT) FROMEMAIL(*DIRENT). In this case, if the required information cannot be retrieved from the system distribution directory entry for the current user profile, an escape message is issued.
Example:
MMAIL/EMLMSG SUBJECT('Announcement of a new software') FROMNAME(*DIRENT) FROMADDR(*DIRENT) TO('dooley@superstar.com'/'Tom Dooley'/*TO) TXTF(QGPL/MESSAGES) TXTMBR(MSG705) RECEIPT(*YES)



  2. E-mail source members

Command MMAIL/EMLSRCM allows to e-mail a message attaching up to 30 source members. Optionally, a message body may be built from another text source member. The message can be e-mailed up to 50 receivers.

Command MMAIL/EMLSRCM
                         E-mail source members (EMLSRCM)

  3. E-mail spool files

Two similar commands are available. They differ in the way the PDF conversion utility is selected.

  • MMAIL/EMLSPL
    This command selects the PDF conversion utility defined by command MMAIL/CVTTOPDF
  • MMAIL/EMLSPLX
    This command, though defaulting to the PDF conversion utility selected by command MMAIL/CVTTOPDF, leaves you the freedom to select a different conversion utility. Besides, when the PDF conversion utility CVTSPLSTMF is selected, it provides all the needed PDF formatting parameters.
 

A-Command MMAIL/EMLSPL allows to e-mail a message attaching up to 30 spool files. A conversion to PDF option is available at single spool file level. Optionally, a message body may be built from a text source member. The message can be e-mailed up to 50 receivers.

Command MMAIL/EMLSPL
                         E-mail spool files (EMLSPL)

 Type choices, press Enter.

  7. Automated e-mailing of spool files

Suppose that your iSeries produces regularly some reports that you need to distribute to some people in your organization. Why not to have an utility that automatically sends such reports to them by e-mail, as soon as they become available?

MMAIL has an utility for that. This is how you use it.

  1. Use command MMAIL/WRKADDR to define the e-mail addresses of your users
  2. Use command MMAIL/WRKGRP to define Groups of addresses (distribution lists)
  3. The pivot of spool files distribution is a data queue. You may create a data queue and associate it to one or more output queues. Every time a spool file is made ready in one of these output queues, an entry is generated in the output queue. Our utility receives the data queue entries and (selectively) e-mail the spool files to their destinations.
    • To create an data queue,
          crtdtaq libxxx/dtaqyyy maxlen(500) aut(*change)
    • To associate a data queue to an output queue,
          chgoutq libaaa/outqbbb dtaq(libxxx/dtaqyyy)
  4. Command MMAIL/STREMLSPLF DTAQ(libxxx/dtaqyyy)
    (see later) starts e-mailing spool files
  5. Command MMAIL/ENDEMLSPLF DTAQ(libxxx/dtaqyyy)
    ends e-mailing spool files

Command MMAIL/STREMLSPLF
                   Start E-Mailing Spool Files (STREMLSPLF)

Type choices, press Enter.

Sender's name: Name of the person sending these messages
Sender's address: E-mail address of the person sending these messages
Data queue: name and library of the data queue associated to one or more output queues
Convert all spool files to PDF: type *YES if you want all the spool files be converted to PDFs prior to be e-mailed. Remove e-mailed spool files: enter *YES to delete a spool file once it has been e-mailed, enter *NO to retain it
MIME message disposition: enter *IMBED to embed the spool file in the mail message body, or enter *ATTACH to attach the spool file to the mail message
Importance: *LOW=low, *MED=medium, *HIG=high
Priority: *NUR=non-urgent, *NRM=normal, *URG=urgent
Sensitivity: *NRM=normal, *PRS=personal, *PRV=private, *CNF=confidential
(use command mmail/setconfid to set the confidentiality statement).
Spool files and groups: this is a list of up to 50 entries. Each entry is made of two elements, spool file name and group name:
  1. spool file name: a string for selecting spool file names eligible for being e-mailed. It may contain a full file name (e.g. QSYSPRT), a generic name (e.g. QSYS*, or *ALL (all spool files will be e-mailed).
  2. group name: name of the address group to which the selected spool files should be e-mailed
Select from User Data. In some cases, the user of this command would rather select the spool file to be e-mailed from the contents of the spool file user data rather than from the spool file name. This can be done by specifying *YES in this last parameter. In such a case, spool file user data (instead of spool file names) are checked vs the selection strings of the previous parameter.
Subject type. Subject type (SBJTYPE) - This parameter establishes the way the subject of the e-mail is captured from the spool file.
  1. If type A (default value) specified, the subject is taken from the first line of the first page of the spool file. If this line is empty, then type B subject is used.
  2. If type B, the subject is made up from date and time, the system name, the qualified output queue name and the spool file name.

Note 1. Command MMAIL/STREMLSPLF submits a batch job.
Note 2. Only one MMAIL/STREMLSPLF command can be issued for a given data queue. If the job submitted for a given data queue is still active, no more MMAIL/STREMLSPLF commands for the same data queue are accepted. Use command MMAIL/ENDEMLSPLF DTAQ(...) to end the submitted job.
Note 3.The following log files are maintained in library MMAILDATA:

  1. EMLSPLFLOG - A record for each spool file processed. Record layout:
    • timestamp
    • qualified name of the data queue
    • qualified name of the batch job processing spool files
    • qualified name of the job that produced the spool file
    • spool file name
    • spool file number
    • action performed by the program in charge for processing spool files
    This file contains records for the last 7 days. Old records are removed when command STREMLSTMF is entered.
  2. SPLLOG - A record for each mail destination of messages sent. Record layout:
    • date
    • time
    • data queue library name
    • data queue name
    • output queue library name
    • output queue name
    • spool file name
    • sent flag: Y=successful, N=failed
    • address group (distribution list)
    • addressee name
    • addressee e-mail address
    This file should be cleared now and then.


  8. Text header and footer for EML... commands

You may define a text header and / or text footer to be automatically added to the TEXT/PLAIN body of messages sent from the following commands:

  • EMLMSG
  • EMLSAVF
  • EMLSPL
  • STREMLSPLF (in this case, only when DISP(*ATTACH))
The text of the header and the text of the footer must be in IFS stream files.
  • Command MMAIL/EMLHEADER allows to define the path and the name of the header stream file, to create, update, and display it.
  • Command MMAIL/EMLFOOTER allows to define the path and the name of the footer stream file, to create, update, and display it.


  9. Resend failed MIME messages

If for any reason a MIME file fails to be sent, it remains in directory /mmail/temp and cannot be re-sent unless you are able to call the QTMMSENDMAIL API passing all the requested parameters.

Command MMAIL/RESEND provides a way to invoke the QTMMSENDMAIL API for resending failed messages. Of course, in the problem is with the Mail Server Framework (MSF) or with the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), the resend of messages may very well fail also.

Command MMAIL/RESEND
                   Re-send failed messages (RESEND)

Type choices, press Enter.

Stream file  . . . . . . . . . .   *ALL
Enter path and name of a MIME stream file to be resent.
If you specify *ALL, all MIME stream files in directory "/mmail/temp" are resent.



  10. Converting spool files

Five ways are available for converting spool files to a number of stream file types:

  1. Command mmail/cvtsplstmf allows to convert an SCS spool file to a stream file, type text, html, or pdf.
    This is a piece of freeware.
  2. Command mmail/cvtsplfpdf allows to convert both an SCS and an AFP spool file to a stream file, type pdf.
    This command is available only from OS/400 release V5R1 on.
    This freeware is made of two libraries: TIFFLIB and HPT which are delivered with MMAIL and installed during MMAIL installation process. These libraries can also be downloaded from UZAEMON's Homepage.
  3. Command afptool/afptool allows to convert both an SCS and an AFP spool file to a PDF stream file.
    This is a charge product you can order from BVSTools.
  4. IBM INFOPRINT SERVER for iSERIES (5722-IP1) is a professional product for printing on iSeries. Among several other features, it includes the ability to convert spool files to PDF under user specified controls. Minimum requirement is V5R1.
    Though it is a charge product, it is by far the one we recommend for high quality results.
    For information about Infoprint Server, see this page.
  5. Command mmail/SPLFTOPDF converts a spool file to PDF using your favorite conversion tool, one of the four above, selected with command mmail/cvttopdf.
Note 1
In the service program mmail/sendmail, subprocedure MimeSplPdf selects one of these ways to convert a spool file to PDF. You must use command mmail/cvttopdf to let this procedure know which of the four PDF conversion utilities should be used.
Note 2
Instead of the above conversion tools, you may decide to use your favorite "spool to pdf converter". To do so, you must
  1. update program mmail/cvttopdf
  2. rework subprocedure MimeSplPdf in mmail/qrpglesrc member xxxmime
  3. recreate the service program and all programs through command mmail/compile

  1. mmail/cvtsplstmf
    This command allows to convert an SCS spool file to a stream file. The stream file type can be
    • text
    • html
    • pdf
    MMAIL/CVTSPLSTMF
             Copy Spool File to Stream File (CVTSPLSTMF)

    This product needs no commands. It would convert to PDF any spool file created or moved to a given output queue.
    To use this product within MMAIL:
    1. set up the environment needed by Infoprint Server by using command MMAIL/INFOPRINT
    2. use command MMAIL/CVTTOPDF to select it as the preferred conversion tool
    3. any time you ask the MMAIL/SENDMAIL service program to e-mail a spool file after converting it to PDF, the spool file will be moved to the INFOPRINT output queue, get converted to PDF, attached to your MIME message and e-mailed.
      For information about Infoprint Server, see this page.


  11. Manage spool files

Some MMAIL users have raised the requirement to have a command similar to WRKSPLF, but also able to:

  • e-mail a selected spool file
  • convert a spool file to a stream file, either as a TEXT file (.TXT), or an HTML file (.HTML) or a PDF file (.PDF).
That has been implemented in January 2006 through command mmail/mngsplf (Manage spool files). This command (when prompted) allows more granular selection of spool files than the OS/400 WRKSPLF command, and fulfills the requested conversion types.
This command takes advantage of these other following commands:
  1. mmail/emlspl, to e-mail a spool file (after optionally converting it to a PDF)
  2. mmail/cvtsplstmf, to convert a spool file to a text or to an html stream file
  3. mmail/spltopdf, to convert a spool file to a pdf stream file, using the preferred conversion tool selected through command cvttopdf.

  12. WEB utilities

In February 2006, some interesting utilities have been made available for the WEB user. They allow to control spool files and spool writers from a remote browser via HTTP. Functions like spool file e-mailing, conversion to stream file or to PDF are also supported.

In order to work, these utilities require some directives be added to the HTTP configuration (see later).

Two utilities are currently available:

  1. WRKSPLF (Work with spool files)
  2. WRKWTR (Work with printer writers)

10a. WRKSPLF

This utility is invoked through the URL
http://.../mmailp/wrksplf.pgm

It is very similar to the 5250 MNGSPLF utility, though more flexible.

An initial screen (see Figure 2) allows to specify selection criteria for the spool files:
Figure 2 - Starting WRKSPLF
Multiple selection criteria are handled in an "AND" condition.
Please note the ability to specify even the number of lines per page.

When *ALL output queues selected, the WEB page looks like that in Figure 3:
Figure 3 - Working with all spool files

On the other side, when in Figure 2 a given output queue is specified, the WEB page also carries controls for that output queue:
Figure 4 - Working with an output queue

About the spool file controls (buttons).

  • The Hold, Release, and Delete buttons can process multiple spool files (for instance, you may delete five spool files in a single shot).
  • The other buttons (Change (change spool file attributes), Display (display a spool file), Attributes (display spool file attributes), E-mail (e-mail a spool file), Cvt to Stmf (convert a spool file to a stream file), and Cvt to Pdf (convert a spool file to a PDF stream file)) process a single spool file at a time and provide separate prompts in a new window for each function.
About spool writers.
Button Work with all printers switches to the WRKWTR WEB utility (see next).

10b. WRKWTR

This utility is invoked through the URL
http://.../mmailp/wrkwtr.pgm
or it may get control from the WRKSPLF utility.

This utility is the WEB version of the WRKWTR 5250 command.
It provides the status of all writers in a single page (see Figure 6).

Figure 6 - Working with writers

About the writers controls (buttons).

  • The Hold, End, and Release buttons may operate on multiple writers (for instance, you may end several writers in one shot).
  • Other buttons (Start (start a writer), Change (change the properties of a writer), and Messages (work with unanswered writer messages)), process a writer at a time by providing control pages in separate windows. See the example of the Messages button in Figure 6.
    Figure 6 - Working with writer unanswered messages

    Switching to spool files control. There are two ways you may switch from the page in Figure 5 to the WRKSPLF utility.

    • By selecting a writer and pushing the button wrkoutq, you will go to a page like that in Figure 4.
    • By clicking button work with all spool files, you will go to the page in Figure 2.

    10c. HTTP directives

    When you install MMAIL, the installation procedure would suggest the installation of some HTTP directives for MMAIL. Such directives allow to display the WEB manual (THIS manual) and to run the WEB utilities.

    However, ih this is not your first MMAIL installation, and you already installed the MMAIL HTTP directives, you may not want to do that again.
    In such a case, you may want to check your MMAIL existing HTTP directives in your system, and the ones documented here, and add the missing ones. By doing do, you will enable the MMAIL WEB utilities for appropriate execution.

    The are two cases.

    1. If you are running an OS/400 release before V5R2, you must run the Original HTTP server (V5R1 Apache HTTP server is not recommended). In this case, please check the "MMAIL Original HTTP Directives". That may also be true if you are running OS/400 V5R2 still with the Original HTTP server.
    2. If you are running the Apache HTTP server (optional on V5R2, mandatory from V5R3 on), please check the "MMAIL Apache HTTP Directives".
