If you are looking for something down and dirty and don’t want to spend any money you could just use SNDDST.

However, once your users get used to receiving email from the iSeries, then the request will get more and more complicated. When that happens, I would recommend using one of the above mentioned free programs or one of the commercial ones.

When that happened to us we got one from Brad Stone at:

Or you can get Aaron Bartell’s free program at:
