On RH6.x, sendmail is at /usr/bin/sendmail, so you can do something like this: tn5250d -c " |scs2ascii |sed '1i\ Subject: This is the subject\ To: Jason M. Felice <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\ From: THE PRINT SPOOLER <root@mybox>\ \ ' |sendmail -t" ... Where `...' is the other switches to connect as the right device and to the host and all. (I'm a little fuzzy on tn5250d - it's been awhile.) Note that if you are running as a user other than root, delete the `From:' line, otherwise sendmail will complain that you're trying to spoof another user. These are standard mail headers: addresses are separated on the `To:' line with commas, you can add other things like receipt requests, etc., if you choose, just copy those headers from an existing email. Disclaimer: This is untested, although I've done something similar for a fax queue. It probably works. -Jason M. Felice <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> P.S. I would appreciate it if any future requests regarding the tn5250 software be sent to the linux5250 support list - you'll get more eyeballs there anyway.
