RE: how to set "To:" and "Subject:" with ssmtp
Also, once 'ssmtp' has been set up properly, 'mutt' can be used like traditional UNIX 'mail'.

You might also try formail, which is included in the procmail package. >From: Marcos Lorenzo > >I'm unable to fill some fields in mail header with ssmtp: > >When I run: > >marcos@MOZART ~$ echo "testing mail" | ssmtp -f >administrador@mozart -F Administrador [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > >I get the following: > ... > >Which is quite OK but I cannot see any option in ssmtp to set the To or >the Subject fields as with the From one.

Re: how to set "To:" and "Subject:" with ssmtp
I attached a small shell script which mimes the behaviour of the classic Unix' mail command using ssmtp. Most of the options are ignored but "To:" and "Subject:" at least work.

Re: how to set "To:" and "Subject:" with ssmtp
Hi Marcos, items such as Date, Subject, To, Cc, From are part of the message data. You should consider to use a file for sending this data. Something like: Subject: hello To: Pete Hello Pete!
