hi,
I am working on a ksh script and i want to be able to send a email using mailx.


if [[ "$testcase3" = "email1" ]] || [[ "$testcase3" = "email2" ]]
then
echo "send email"
mailx -s "Subject goes here" <email address>;
fi

thats what i have so far, in place of "<email address>" I have my actualy email address and I want to add a body with the text "body goes here". I have tried googling for this but didnt quite understand the results nor the man pages. Btw the code above doesnt even send an email with just a subject only, any ideas.

Any help would be appreciated.

echo 'body goes here' | mailx -s "Subject goes here" emailAddress

Thank You,
It worked!

I am trying to send a mail from the command line using the mail command, it is not giving any error message nor the message is delivered.

Regards,
SM

Immediately after sending the mail run "mailq" and paste the output here.

Thanks,
A.
