BVSTools.com now Running on our own Model 515
Late in 2007 BVSTools took advantage of IBM's Partnerworld
offerings to software vendors and purchased a model
515 for product development and for running our web
page.
This has allowed us to offer even better and faster
support!
This also means that, because we are running OS V5R4,
the oldest release for our software will move from the
current V4R5 to V5R1. We of course will still offer
older versions of our software to customers that require
an earlier release.

MAILTOOL Updates
MAILTOOL
received an update in v6.07 that allows you now to supply
a value for a footer in emails sent using the MAILTOOL
Product.
This enhancement was added because of customer requests.
A lot of our customers have standard footers that they
wish to include in all emails.
Using the new FOOTER parameter in MAILTOOL users are
now able to specify the location of an IFS file that
contains a preformatted footer that can be included
in emails sent using the MAILTOOL product.
BVSTools encourages customers to submit ideas they
have for improving any of our software!

This week's FAQ Snap Shot is taken from the MAILTOOL
FAQ page located at https://docs.bvstools.com/home.
Q:How do you force a new line or a paragraph using
MAILTOOL and the Message Parameter?
A: Using the \n character sequence will force a
new line, so using two of them can also force a new
paragraph. This only applys to text that is entered
on the message parameter of the MAILTOOL command.

to software can be found in the software documentation

FTP Tool (FTPTOOL) - FTP Server Security
FTP Tool (FTPTOOL) was created because of the need
to add an extra layer of security to FTP servers running
on System i (As/400) machines.
Unless you have set up very strict object/directory
level access to libraries or IFS files you may leave
sensitive data exposed to users.
FTPTOOL allows you to set up security at a user and/or
directory level using a simple intuitive interface.
FTPTOOL also offers other features such as setting
up "triggers" to run when FTP commands are
run, anonymous logon, and FTP logging.
FTPTOOL is also a 100% iSeries native application!
As with any software, if there are any features you
would like to see added, feel free to contact us with
your request!
For more information on FTPTOOL,
feel free to visit https://www.bvstools.com/ftptool/html
or contact
us directly.
