1.1.2 Sending messages from DCL

From DCL, you can use the MAIL command to send a message to a PMDF address, but be careful to use the proper number of quotes:

$ MAIL/SUBJECT="subject-line" msgfile.ext "IN%""address"""
The existing quotes in IN%"address" have each been repeated, and an extra pair of quotes surrounding the entire construct added. For example,
$ MAIL/SUBJECT="Latest results" D1:[DATA]EH011.DAT "IN%""BOB@STATEU.EDU"""

Note that messages may also be sent from DCL with the PMDF SEND utility; see Chapter 8 .
