Hi Dimple,

If u have a utility for sending mails from the command prompt (theres a lot of freeware on the net), u can send mails thru an exchance/pop/IMAP server. I had downloded one such utility and it works just fine when invoked as an after job routine.

I can send it to u directly if u want it; its available on the net tho.

Regds,
Vivek

it also depends on where and what you want to send, we have some example routines for sending emails from datastage that we used on an internal training course. Of course the simplest way is to just call a mailer from the command line as an afterjob subroutine (something like blat etc or on unix sendmail etc)

If you want to send mail inside a row, could might want to experiment with the command stage, or again use a routine within a transform.

Im assuming that you want to send an email to give a signal of the jobs status (failed etc). In that case Id go with using an afterjob subroutine or routine within a batch process picking up the jobstatus.

Regards

Andrew
