Hi misc@, I have set up mail(1) so that it forwards mails such as the output of /etc/daily to my mail account and now I want to encrypt these mails using my public gpg-key. The best solution I have come up with is changing these two lines at the end of /etc/daily:
- } 2>&1 | mail -s "`hostname` daily output" root + } 2>&1 | gpg2 --encrypt -r <key-ID> --armor | mail -s "`hostname` daily output" root ... - [ -s $MAINOUT ] && mail -s "`hostname` daily insecurity output" root < $MAINOUT + [ -s $MAINOUT ] && gpg2 --encrypt -r <key-ID> --armor < $MAINOUT | mail -s "`hostname` daily insecurity output" root While it perfectly does what I want, I consider it bad habit to change /etc/daily itself and would like to know if there is any preferred solution to this issue? Thanks in advance Simon
