Hi,
this is really useful!!!!!
Could you help me a little more to understand the syntax?
It's not clear to me what "cat <<Z" and "Z" do!
In addition to that ... what do I need to configure to let this work? I'm
not able to run it on all my desktops so probably something is set
different! I get no error but I do not receive the mail!
Are you sending the mail to the root user?
Then you need to set an alias in /etc/aliases and forward root's email
to your email address (or even better a list of people, so that you can
go on holiday).
Edit /etc/aliases and use the command "newalias"
If your script is sending email to your address directly,
I can help if you are using the Postfix mail program (and that is not
likely) , as that is the one I have most experience with. I would rather
not try to help you configure Sendmail remotely.
