sending e-mail from Enterprise Guide Program Mode

[wphupkes]

Hi all,

From Base 9.X, I didn't had any problem sending an e-mail (with attached PDF for example, created by ODS PDF). Now I'm using the program session from SAS Enterprise Guide, and I'll get the following error statement by executing the program as presented below:

NOTE: The file MAILBOX is:
E-Mail Access Device

ERROR: Email host ENTER_YOUR_SMTP_DOMAIN_HERE not found.
NOTE: The SAS System stopped processing this step because of errors.
NOTE: DATA statement used (Total process time):
real time 0.31 seconds
cpu time 0.00 seconds


The SAS Code:

FILENAME mail EMAIL "wphupkes@gmail.com" ;

DATA _NULL_;
FILE mail
TO = ("&To_first" "&To_second")
CC = ("&CC_First")
BCC = ("&BCC_First")
SUBJECT="Report &Day_start - &Month_start - &Year_start until &Day_end - &Month_end - &Year_end"
ATTACH=("&Directory\Report &Day_start - &Month_start - &Year_start until &Day_end - &Month_end - &Year_end .pdf");
PUT "Dear <name>," //;
PUT "The SAS job in order to create this report ran on &sysdate ." ;
PUT "The reports (period &Day_start - &Month_start - &Year_start until &Day_end - &Month_end - &Year_end) are attached to this message." //;
PUT "If there are any questions or remarks, please respond to this e-mail."//;
PUT "With kind regards,";
PUT "Wouter Hupkes";
RUN;


But even with a small test code, the same error will appear:

FILENAME Mailbox EMAIL 'wouter.hupkes@gmail.nl'
Subject='Test Mail message';
DATA _NULL_;
FILE Mailbox;
PUT "Hello";
PUT "This is a message from the DATA step";
run;


Any change in settings (suggested by 'help' doesn't work). Do I really have to send mails as a step in a program? Is it not possible anymore to get the job done in de program mode?

Thanks in your answer in advance!
