Hello!
I have a script launched from cron every morning, that gets certain data over
the Internet from a remote computer, compares the new data with that from the
previous day, and outputs the difference (if any).
I'm relying on the fact, that cron e-mails me the output of each job.
However, I modified the script recently to produce the output (if any) in
HTML, rather than in plain-text format.
The HTML arrives by e-mail just as well as plain text used to, but no e-mail
program will render it as such, because neither the cron(8), nor the mail(1),
which cron uses to send e-mail, creates MIME messages...
How can I force the ``Content-Type: text/html'' header without hacking cron's
sources? I'd rather avoid poluting my script with e-mail sending code...
Maybe, cron should apply file(1)-like logic to the e-mailed content?
Thanks for any hints. Yours,
-mi
