Which OS is the server running? My server is Windows 2000 professional. I use the cygwin tools for all my scripting. http://www.cygwin.com/
They have an ssmtp client which I use for mail. I wrap it in the following mail bash script: #!/bin/bash from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" from="$USERNAME" subject="mail test" html="" test="" send_mail() { typeset line printf "To: $to_list\n" printf "From: $from\n" printf "Subject: $subject\n" if test "$html" != "" then printf "Content-type: text/html;\n\n" printf "<html>\n<body>\n\n" else printf "\n" fi cat if test "$html" != "" then printf "\n</body>\n</html>\n" fi return while read line do if test "$line" = "." then return else printf "$line\n" fi done } #set -x while test "${1:0:1}" = "-" do case "$1" in "-s" ) subject="$2" shift shift ;; "-f" ) from="$2" shift shift ;; "-html" ) html=1 shift ;; "-test" ) test=1 shift ;; esac done if test "$*" = "" then echo "usage: $0 [ -s subjectline ] [ -s sender ] [ -html ] [ -test ] recipient [ recipient . . . ] " exit fi to_list="$*" if test "$test" != "" then #send_mail | sed 's/\n/\r\n/g' | tee | /usr/sbin/ssmtp $to_list send_mail | sed 's/\n/\r\n/g' else send_mail | sed 's/\n/\r\n/g' | /usr/sbin/ssmtp $to_list fi ########################################### This script can be used echo "the include file changed" | mail -s "Include File Change Notice" [EMAIL PROTECTED] I usually take the to-list from the contents of CVSROOT/writers. ssmtp requires a config file /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf to be set up to point to your smtp server.

You could probably send messages via command-line email client (assuming it had access to a mail server). -Matt _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
