sending mail with html content

gmchoudary · #1 (**permalink**) 11-28-2005

hi,
I am new to unix.
I need send html content as a mail from my sun-solaris2.6 work station. When I tried that the recipient gets it as html code with all the tags.

any solutions?
thanx in advance

I have used this sometime, which was taken from some tutorial example, and it works great for me.

(
echo "From: me@my_company.com"
echo "To: you@your_company.com"
echo "MIME-Version: 1.0"
echo "Content-Type: multipart/mixed;"
echo ' boundary="PAA08673.1018277622/server.domain.com"'
echo "Subject: Test Message"
echo ""
echo "This is a MIME-encapsulated message"
echo ""
echo "--PAA08673.1018277622/server.domain.com"
echo "Content-Type: text/html"
echo ""
echo "<HTML>
<BODY bgcolor=blue>
<blockquote>Test Message Body</blockquote>
</body>
</html>"
echo "--PAA08673.1018277622/server.domain.com"
) | sendmail -t

hi

"sendmail" in my sys is not worked. It might have been disabled. Can we do it with mail/mailx?

thank in advance
