code snippet below:
mail -s "subject" -u $customid
toaddress@mail.com
I saw some other discussion also, but i cannot find the exact one. Most of the discussion is based on Solaris box, with -r option, that doesn't work in AIX.
Please guide me to make this happen successfully.
Thanks in Advance!
Arun ,
Did you tried using mailx command
mailx -s "subject"
xyz@zz.com(userid)

collectd-email
COLLECTD-EMAIL(5) collectd COLLECTD-EMAIL(5)
NAME
collectd-email - Documentation of collectd's "email plugin"
SYNOPSIS
# See collectd.conf(5)
LoadPlugin email
# ...
<Plugin email>
SocketGroup "collectd"
SocketPerms "0770"
MaxConns 5
</Plugin>
DESCRIPTION
The "email plugin" opens an UNIX-socket over which one can submit email statistics, such as the number of "ham", "spam", "virus", etc.
mails received/handled, spam scores and matched spam checks.
This plugin is intended to be used with the Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Collectd SpamAssassin-plugin which is included in contrib/, but is
of course not limited to that use.
OPERATION
This plugin collects data indirectly by providing a UNIX-socket that external programs can connect to. A simple line based protocol is used
to communicate with the plugin:
o E-Mail type (e.g. "ham", "spam", "virus", ...) and size (bytes):
e:<type>:<size>
If "size" is less than or equal to zero, "size" is ignored.
o Spam score:
s:<value>
o Successful spam checks (e.g. "BAYES_99", "SUBJECT_DRUG_GAP_C", ...):
c:<type1>[,<type2>,...]
Each line is limited to 256 characters (including the newline character). Longer lines will be ignored.
