Hi,

Is there a way of sending emails using MIME and without using xmitip ?

I'm currently using this JCL but the PDF file seems to be corrupted.

Are you using SAS at all to create the PDF document and to email it?

Hi Superk,

On using MIME itself, is there a way to directly convert it ? Or I would need TXT2PDF conversion before it can be successfully sent as a PDF file ?

Thanks.

emem,

Do you have SMTP up and running on your system?

Hi Kolusu,

Yes SMTP is running on our system.

I'm able to send a PDF file using xmitip but I would like to know if there is other way to accomplish it without using a xmitip. Perhaps there is a specific command to convert a text file to pdf format and diretly email it ?

Thanks.

Hi Taltyman,

I can see form the comments the JCL to run. Please can you provide me with the working JCL sample to convert text file to PDF format and send it as an email attachment ?

Thanks for the help Smile

Why can you not create the JCL from the skeleton in the comments? The only bits missing are site dependent and your own requirements dependent. If somone had a working job based on the JCL in the comment then you would have to change the exact things that you would have to change using the skeleton.
