Hi,
is there a way to send an email from a bash script?
I mean . I have a script that manages some jobs that need many days to
complete (they run locally on my desktop!)! I'd like to receive some emails
containing the status of the job! Just like CAF's endjob mails!
Is it possible?
This doesn't give any control over the from: field; it's simply piped
into sendmail. It mirrors what crond and atd do.
echo -e 'Love\n\tMaria' \
| mail -s "Message for Manuel" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The following gives complete flexibility and is what I often do to send
reports. Note that I have two sections here, one sending out the headers
(including the needed blank line), one creating the actual report. This
mirrors what is often needed in practice.
(
cat <<Z
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Message from Maria
Z
echo Thanks so much for last night
echo
echo Love
echo -e \ Maria
) 2>&1 \
| /usr/sbin/sendmail -t

Cheers
