I wish to thank everyone who replied so promptly to my message. I
appreciate all the help. I knew this had to be simple, but I was having a
brain freeze. With you help I was able to get the script running in 2
minutes.
Thanks again to all.
Best Regards,
Roger McClurg

control-d is the keyboard equivelent for "end-of-file". You can simply
pipe something to (or otherwise redirect the input of) the mail command,
which will correctly identify the end of file, ie:
echo "hello world" | mail -s test [EMAIL PROTECTED]
-or-
mail -s test [EMAIL PROTECTED] </my/test/message
