Since "!" tells bash to invoke a previous comand, bash is trying to execute a bogus command (!"). If you want special shell characters in a string, you need to escape them. Try printf TEST123 | mail -s "test mail to felipe\!" [EMAIL PROTECTED] If that doesn't work try printf TEST123 | mail -s 'test mail to felipe\!'
