Looks to me that there are missing less thans (<) before the &amp;ltuser. 
occurrences.

Subject: Why email from z/OS SMTP rejected by Gmail?

Has anyone else seen this? I have a couple of z/OS applications that send 
status emails. The emails go to several addresses without error. Some of the 
emails are plain text format, and some are HTML.

I recently added an @Gmail address to the emails and the plain text email 
*only* is being rejected by Gmail with the following error:

host gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[142.251.15.26] said:
550-5.7.1 [66.180.7.182] Messages missing a valid messageId header are not
550 5.7.1 accepted. 4-20020a250404000000b006de730f5057si5474769ybe.296 -
gsmtp (in reply to end of DATA command)

Here is an example &ndash; pretty much straight out of the IP User&rsquo;s 
Guide &ndash; that duplicates the problem. The @mcn address works but the 
@gmail address bounces. Has anyone else seen this? Any ideas?
