Yeah. Compose the mail and pipe it straight into sendmail: % sendmail -t -i -f [EMAIL PROTECTED] <<EOF From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: test test EOF -t tells sendmail it's injecting into the queue, -i says not to stop at a '.' by itself on a line, instead waiting for the end of input, and the -f sets the envelope sender, which is important if your username+hostname combination is not your address. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
