I sometimes have to email all users on my BX servers and so created a script 
called 'createforward.sh' with the following:

ls -Al /home/sites/*/users/*/mbox | gawk {'print "\\"$9'} | sed 's~/mbox~~' | 
sed 's~/home/sites/.*/~~' > ~allusers/.forward

This creates a .forward file for the user 'allusers' with an entry for each 
user.

 I then email allusers@<hostname> and it forwards a copy to all the users. I 
then delete the .forward file.

It works BUT sends out xxx copies to each user where xxx is the total number of 
users on the box (i.e. in the .forward file) which is a bit embarrassing!

Can anybody suggest a better way of doing this?

Thanks

Colin
