Is there any way we can point to a MAILBOOK member from within the job JCL at the job step level when using the SMTP driver of CA Spool?

Issue/Introduction

We have batch jobs that create numerous reports and have multiple steps in the job to selectively send different reports to different sets of email recipients. 

Is there any way we can point to a MAILBOOK member from within the job JCL at the job step level?

Environment

z/OS

Resolution

Here is an example: 

//OUT1 OUTPUT ADDRESS=('MAILBOOK=xxxxxxx') 

You can use this method to pass any of the other email parameters. Here is another example:

//EMAIL    OUTPUT  ADDRESS=('TO=email-address,',

//     'SUBJECT=&FNO - &FNM',                    

//     'FILENAME=&FNM.PDF',                      

 

//     'MSG=THIS IS A TEST MESSAGE.')
