Any job started on iSeries inherits its CCSID from system value QCCSID. CCSID 65535 inhibits code page conversion (see this Infocenter page). On the other side, the system API used by MMAIL, QtmmSendMail, requires the sender and the addressee data be in code page 500; moreover, the MIME file itself need to support code page conversion. For this to occur, both the job using MMAIL commands or subprocedures, and the QMSF jobs must run with a CCSID other than 65535.
