Problem Note 39614: "ERROR: No email addresses specified" when sending email from SAS® using SMTP
If you are using SMTP as your email interface when you send email from
a SAS® process, and you specify an invalid email address,
the DATA step will fail and discontinue further processing.
An error similar to the following is written to the SAS log file:
WARNING: Email: 550 <email_address@sas.com>: Recipient address
rejected: NO ACCESS to SAS.COM domain
WARNING: Bad email address: email_address@sas.com
ERROR: No email addresses specified.
FATAL: Unrecoverable I/O error detected in the execution of the DATA step
program. Aborted during the EXECUTION phase.
The hot fix changes the error to a warning, which returns an
exit status code value of 1 and does not cause the DATA step to fail.
