Hi,
our email server is lotusNotes smtp server. In version 6.1, I used email:: as prefix without any issue. But under v7.0.0.2, the node keeps throwing exception complaining that I haven't setup the security identify with mqsisetdbparms. But I did, and email::MyID does exist, and I also ran mqsireload against the broker.

So I wonder what is different in v7 vs. v6.

Any insight would be appreciated.

The difference is the EmailInput node.

The name of the security identity that the EmailInput node or EmailServer configurable service use to authenticate with an email server to retrieve email messages. The ResourceName takes the form email::secId, where secId is specified as the value of the Security identity property on the EmailInput node or in the -n securityIdentity property of the associated EmailServer configurable service.

versus

The security identity for authentication with the SMTP server, which can be the name of the userid and password pair that is defined using the mqsisetdbparms command, or it can reference an external resource that has a securityIdentity attribute that references a userid and password that are defined using the mqsisetdbparms command. In both cases, the value is appended after the string “smtp::”. For example, if you use the mqsisetdbparms command to create a userid and password of smtp::myUseridPassword, the securityIdentity that is specified on the node, or indirectly in an external resource, is myUseridPassword.

Note that there's also a badly written comment on the mqsisetdbparms page, "The name of the security identity that is used to authenticate an SMTP server.", that appears to be missing the clarification that it needs to start with smtp::

Hi mqjeff. thanks so much for the clear explanation. Yes, I also found the section on smtp confusing.
