PMNMatos — Mon, 15 Jan 2018 16:00:34 GMT

Hello,

I'm tryig to send an email directly froam SAS, but the system give me this message "ERROR: Email: Permission is denied."

I'm using this code:

filename mymail email "ABC@servidor.pt"
subject="Relatório P348"
from="ABC@servidor.pt"
to="ABC@servidor.pt"
attach="C:\Users\......\Abc.xlsx";

data _null_;
file mymail;
put Texto"; 
put "Texto."; 
run;

I've already run this command:

proc setinit;
run;

And I've obtained this message:

Operating System: WX64_SV .
Product expiration dates:

Hi @PMNMatos

Do it work without the attachment ?

First, are you able to send email outside of SAS?

Please use Usage Note 18363 (Troubleshooting guidelines for successfully sending an SMTP e-mail from SAS® software) and let us know if that works.

Then try to apply this one Usage Note 19767 (Using SAS® software to send SMTP email).

It tells you the option you need to setup, etc. and gives you a sampel code.

Ovreall, Sending E-mail from the DATA step should help you if you can get the above 2 Notes to work.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Damo

Hi,

Now I can send an e-mail from the DATA step.

I continue to have some issues with the program.

Thank you for your help.

Hi @PMNMatos

Can't you use the DATA step to send email then?

What is your constraint?

Hi Damo,

No. Now I don't have any problem sending de e-mail from data step. It's working perfetly.

But I can't send the email with the code I write above. Do you have any idea to solve the problem? (it is no very importante... just curiosity).

Thank you again.

Pedro

Hi @PMNMatos

Great, so you have a solution, that's the main point.

Can you send us the 2 logs files (when it works and the one related to your original program) ?

Cheers,
Damien
