Hi All
If we have an API that can only contact with smtp, is it possible to have the smtp send a mesage to a MQ's remote queue such that the same message is sent over to another MQ server.
??????
plz help
Thank you in advance. |

Queue managers don't speak smtp out of the box.
But if your API can speak smtp (i.e. has access to a network) it's a simple enough task to incorporate the MQI to connect (and put message) to a queue manager.

Plz let me know if there is a document which will help me understand how to setup such an environment and configure MQI, so that i can actually test it

MQ does not have any native support for SMTP. Vitor was suggesting that a program that uses SMTP could be modified to also use the MQ programming API (aka the MQI). The functionality (bridging? forwarding?) that you want to provide between SMTP and MQ is entirely up to you.

To be very very clear.
There is nothing you can CONFIGURE to do this, unless you have a very fancy SMTP Server.
You must WRITE A PROGRAM to do this.
Or pay someone else to do it for you. |

You must know how to design and write code, or know how to find someone who can.
To the latter, I offer the forum's Job Postings section. Other means of locating WMQ professionals are available.

WMQs API to deals with WMQ objects and messages.
SMTP has its own API. Do a search on Mr. Google for SMTP+API and you will find references and sample code.
You will need to write a program using whatever programming language both support. You will need to include in this program WMQs APIs to access WMQ resources (queue manager, messages and queues); and in the same program use SMTPs APIs access SMTP resources.
You will need to be conversant in both sets of APIs. Or hire someone who is.
Using multiple APIs in a single program is more common than you might think. Many programs use WMQ APIs and SQL calls, for example.
