It's prolly unrelated to a problem I'm having, but I came across this in a
bash script that is supposed to send me an email when a certain task is done.
# change these to suit your needs
SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail # your Mail-Transfer-Agent
SENDMAIL_OPTS= # and its required options
Then later when it fires off the command, it looks like this:
cat $TEMPFILE | $SENDMAIL $SENDMAIL_OPTS "$@"
It looks to me like the first ref to SENDMAIL_OPTS is a dangling reference,
but then later on the command that runs supplies the parameter.
I wonder if the first ref is a problem or not.
It just means SENDMAIL_OPTS is null.
