Charles' Log: week of 29 January 2001

  1. January (Monday). 

    More on Websphere and mail-related things...
    Turns out that @dtw_sendmail() does work after all... if you set the parameter DTW_SMTP_SERVER to the full DNS of a host with a working/accepting smtp server.  For reasons I don't understand (but probably have to do with the history of this machine was set up), e250.ibsentg.com is not a working SMTP server. 

    Fortunately for IBS, my personal server is an "open and accepting" (small joke there) SMTP server, so I set DTW_SMTP_SERVER to "thedance.net" in db2www.ini, stopped and restarted the commercesuite instance DEV from the configuration manager (port 4444), and was able to start using @dtw_sendmail().
