OK, I get the env variables with no mention of $HOSTNAME. I also added a
printout of "$(whoami)" to see what user the process was running under but
it returned a blank string.

As soon as I add the path change:
<SNIP>
############################################################################
##
# Processing Core It is recommended you don't add functions directly
# to his file. Keep them external and source them.
############################################################################
##
#Test Line follows
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
main () {
prog=`basename $0`
<SNIP>
The mailing no longer occurs. Remove it and I get the emails again but with
no $HOSTNAME. Just so I know, what is the relationship between PATH and
environment variables? How does adding the above path provide visibility to
$HOSTNAME?
Thanks,
Paul
