When you create an email notification in SAS^® Model Manager, the following error might be displayed:

The problem occurs when the email address that you entered contains an underscore (_).

To work around the problem, use the Ad Hoc report feature:

1. Define a performance task with an email address that does not contain an underscore.
2. Create an ad hoc report using the PerformanceMonitor SAS code that was generated.
3. Update the password. EXAMPLE:
   
   %let _MM_Password=<my password>;
4. Update the email address to specify the one that you want. Use this SAS code:
   
   /*-------------- Contacts code ---------------*/ data emailaddr; length address $50 sendAlertWarning sendJobStatus $1; address = "<email address that you want to use>"; sendAlertWarning = "Y"; sendJobStatus = "Y"; output; run;

5. Run the ad hoc report. The updated email address is used.
