There are alot of nice modules to do this, but this does it just with sendmail. #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; my $mailprog='/usr/sbin/sendmail'; my $email = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; my $from = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; open( MAIL, "|$mailprog -t" ) || safe_die("Can't start mail program $mailprog $!"); print MAIL "To: $email\n"; print MAIL "From: $email\n"; print MAIL "Subject: sitenews: Notification\n"; print MAIL "\n\n"; #important to print this print MAIL "Backup completed for website.\n\n"; print MAIL "-" x 75 . "\n"; close(MAIL); -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
