You need to be more specific. What "client" are you talking about?

Email in UNIX/Linux is generally stored in /var/spool/mail - if you email a user on the UNIX server, the mail will end up in that directory.

sir,
clients are those nodes which can run processes on the server.
now whenever any process is over i need to send mail from the server side to the email id of the person who is logged on that node.
we have the database of the nodes and their email-id's.
so the task is how can we send the email from server to the email-id.
