Jim:
 
First you need to make the following changes in your config.sys file
 
-emailsys smtp
-emaildlg sas
-emailid <your login name>
-emailserver <mail-server's IP Address or domain name>
 
 
then you need to run the following code :
 
FILENAME mail EMAIL "Debasmit.Mohanty@geind.ge.com"
                  SUBJECT="Test Mail from Data Step of SAS";
 
 DATA _NULL_;
 
     FILE mail;
     PUT "This is a test message from Debasmit.";
     PUT "This test mail has been generated from SAS Data Step";
     PUT "!EM_CC!Shrikant.Dash@geind.ge.com";
     PUT "!EM_SEND!";
RUN;
 
Hope this Helps.

        Using e-mail with SAS 6.12
 
        I've been trying to have my SAS programs send me e-mails at various
        points throughout the program.  I set up my config file as per
        instructions I found at the SAS web site.  I keep getting the
following
        error:
 
        <Log file begin>
        1    *
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        ~~~~ ~~; 2    options nocenter errors=5 macrogen; 3    *
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        ~~~~ ~~; 4 5    * This sends a message to Jim as to status (need
        something else for this to work), like:; 6    filename message email
        "linck@ssb.rochester.edu"
subject="MeasureQtrlyCFandEconExpos_a.sas"; 7
        data _null_; 8          file message; 9          put "Hey Jim,
program
        MeasureQtrlyCFandEconExpos_a.sas is now complete!"; 10      run;
 
        NOTE: The file MESSAGE is:
              E-Mail access method
 
        ERROR: E-mail initialization failure. Verify that E-mail is
installed
        NOTE: The SAS System stopped processing this step because of errors.
        NOTE: The DATA statement used 0.05 seconds.
        <Log file End>
 
        I use MS Outlook 98 as my e-mail package (exchange mail server).  On
one
        machine, I run WinNT; on another, I run Win98.  Do I have to have
OUlook
        open and running for this to work? Thanks.
        Jim
