[TriLUG] send an email within a script

[Douglas Kojetin]

I run some computational jobs that take (sometimes) a long time -- they 
basically consist of a bunch of piped lines into various programs 
within a C-shell script.  Anywho, the programs I use have the option of 
displaying progress (verbose) or not.  I'd like to turn off the 
verboseness ... but would like to have some sort of notification that 
the job has finished (other than using 'top' to check and see if the 
processes are still running).

Is there a way, within a C-shell script, to send a quick mail to a 
specified remote address with a subject (and body, if not difficult) to 
alert me that the job is finished?  What program(s) could I use and how 
might I go about doing it?

Thanks!
Doug
