I send email from a scripts using ssmtp, but one needs to construct the entire message, headers and all. Earlier I had tried mutt; I don't remember why I switched, but it may have had something to do with sending MIME.
For your reference (and perhaps your amusement), I've attached the script that I use to format the message to ssmtp. It is not totally generic, so you'll have to make changes and test. -----Original Message----- From: Robert Pollard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 14, 2004 12:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Command line email clients Hi, I need to automate email notifications from a shell script. I also need to be able to set up the email servers for sending mail through a shell script. Which ever email client I use, I need to automate the process of setting up and sending mail. I have looked at Pine and tried to find information on ssmtp but can't locate any information on it. Pine seems a bit much for what I need. I would like to be able to just send email and not have the overhead of Pine. Is there documentation on ssmtp that will show me how to setup a smtp server and send an email to it? Thanks, Robert Pollard
