DSXchange

I only saw one post on cc-ing, but there was no real response to it...

Is it possible to send an email and include a "cc" ? I need DataStage to send an email to another application that requires a "cc" in certain situations.

Sure, as long as your email client supports it. However, not via the Notification Activity, you'll need to code your own routine or script/batch file to accomplish that. Or perhaps by creating a "dssendmail" file with the proper command and tokens - see the "dssendmail_template" in any project directory for the gory details.

Thanks, chulett.

I was already using DSSendMail which I believe through the dssendmail_template.txt was using dssmtpmail.exe. I tried seeing if I could get dssmtpmail.exe to accept a cc. But I couldn't find any documentation and none of my guesses worked so I gave up.

I eventually switched to blat and the cc did work. I hit the command line character limit while testing, so I'm a bit nervous about it (testing hopefully won't get that large). But it seems to be working.

I've used "blat" in the past (UNIX, not Windows) and didn't have any issues with it. Some nice features there.
