events send mail to admin -

Hi everybody !!

I want to do something and I can't figure out. The idea is that a script should send an email when a backup is done.
It works with a unix account (like root) but what I really want is to send that email to other account like fede@somethig.com.

I have a mail server installed in other computer, all these boxes are running solaris 9.

I believe that I should tell the box that is running the backup script to send the email using other mail server, but I don't know how to do it.

Also, as a test, I tried: mail -t myaccount@stuff.com, and it doesn´t work. (of course the email acount exist...)

So if someone can help me, I'll send a pack of six beers...

Thanx a lot.
