That's the reason that SyzMPF/z sells so well, it creates the email (or test message) at the end of the job whether it got a JCL error Abend or normal end (with any and all condition codes), in a nice little email in either HTML or plain text (or sms text message) and can even send any or all parts of the JOB output along with it.
It's not a bad deal for under $10K ($5K if you are an IBM-MAIN or Share member), as you also get all of the other commands and options that SyzMPF/z can do. http://www.syzygyinc.com/SyzMPFz.htm. But thats getting into marketing again.
