hi,

Im trying to send a e-mail to two people e.g X & Y . I run a shell script that uses the mail command to send an email to both these people . The email that i am sending contains two attatchments that i 'add' to a .mail file.

mail <recipients> < filename.mail

The problem that im getting is that when i send the email both X & Y recieve the email in the MS Outlook Inboxes but in the "To: " field it does not show their names.

e.g
To:

Im trying to change this so that it does show

e.g
To: X, Y

It works if i have no attatchments and only 1 attatchment then i use the following command.

uuencode <filename> <attatch_file_name> | mailx -s <subject> <recipients>

does anyone know how i can use the mail command so the recipient names come up when they open their email.

much appreciated

Add -t to the command line:

mail -t <recipients> < filename.mail

Cheers,

Keith
