Wrench Nail command error
Hello all.

I am currently using Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.8 (Tikanga).

I have multiple users on this system and intend to use nail command to send out emails.
When I enter the command:
Code:
nail <some-email-address>

its accepts the command and sends out an email.

But when I log into the system using orasoa user and try using the nail command, this is what I get;

Code:
ORASOA @titan3:/home/orasoa>nail <some-email-address>
temporary mail message file: Permission denied

The .bash_profile of orasoa user is:

Code:
ORASOA @titan3:/home/orasoa>cat .bash_profile 
# .bash_profile

# Get the aliases and functions
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
        . ~/.bashrc
fi

rhsm-icon

rhsm-icon(8)						    Subscription Status Daemon						      rhsm-icon(8)

NAME

       rhsm-icon - Periodically checks installed products against active subscriptions to check their status.

SYNOPSIS

       rhsm-icon [--check-period] [--force-icon=warning|expired|partial] [--check-immediately]

DESCRIPTION

       Red  Hat  provides  content  updates  and  support  by  issuing	subscriptions for its products. These subscriptions are applied to systems
       (machines) and apply to the installed software products.

       On graphical X systems (systems with a GUI interface), a product status daemon runs every 4 hours to check the currently installed software
       against	the applied subscriptions. If software is installed without a valid and applied subscription (such as a subscription expires or no
       subscription is available for the product), then the daemon triggers an icon and warning message to display in the notification area of the
       menu.

       rhsm-icon
	only runs on graphical (X-based) systems. Servers which do not have a GUI interface do not run or require the rhsm-icon daemon.

OPTIONS

       -c, --check-period
	      Sets the interval to use between checks for the product subscription status. The value is in seconds.

       -f, --force-icon=TYPE
	      Manually	displays  the given type of icon in the start menu. The TYPE can be warning, expired, or partial and uses a different icon
	      for each type of message.

       --i, --check-immediately
	      Runs the status check process immediately when the command is invoked. Otherwise, there is a four (4) minute  delay  before  running
	      the check.

       -d, --debug
	      Shows debug messages for the daemon.

USAGE

       There are two reasons to invoke rhsm-icon manually:

	      * To run the daemon on a new schedule (immediately or with a different frequency)

	      * To view the status icons or messages regardless of the state of the machine

       Since X runs the daemon automatically and on schedule, it is not necessary to launch the subscription status daemon manually. The rhsm-icon
       command can change this schedule. For example:
       rhsm-icon --check-period 120

       Administrators can also run rhsm-icon to view any immediate changes to the subscription status of the system. Using the --check-immediately
       option runs the check at the time the command is run; otherwise, running rhsm-icon has a four-minute delay before running the status check.

       rhsm-icon --check-immediately

       If  you	just  want  to	know  what  the  different subscription status messages look like, then use the --force-icon option. (Also use the
       --check-immediately option, or the scan will take the standard four minutes to run and display the icon.)

       rhsm-icon --force-icon=warning --check-immediately
       rhsm-icon --force-icon=expired --check-immediately
       rhsm-icon --force-icon=partial --check-immediately

BUGS

       This daemon is part of Red Hat Subscription Manager. To file bugs against this daemon, go to https://bugzilla.redhat.com,  and  select  Red
