ok so I created the txt file and it is in this format and called it pdf-to-user.txt ( im sure the following is extremely wrong because it isnt doing anything ( i do mean wrong on my part for not fully understanding) . the files are all located in a directory called /home/linuxguy/pdf but it doesnt seem to be reading anything how do I specify this ?

001 = linuxguy
002 = user2
##########
the script is as follows :
domain = unix.com
mail = mutt -s "mail" -a $file $user@domain

while read file user; do
test -e "$file" || continue || $mail
# continue to use your imagination here.
# for example, start populating this with just
echo file $file, user $user"
# to see what's going on
done< pdf-to-user.txt

ecaccess-file-move

ECACCESS-FILE-MOVE(1p)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				    ECACCESS-FILE-MOVE(1p)

NAME

       ecaccess-file-move - Move or Rename ECaccess Files

SYNOPSIS

       ecaccess-file-move -version|-help|-manual

       ecaccess-file-move [-debug] source-ecaccess-file target-ecaccess-file

DESCRIPTION

       Allow moving an ECaccess File. When the move occurs within the same ECaccess File System then it is a rename. When the move occurs across
       two different ECaccess File Systems then first a copy is done and then a delete of the original file is done (e.g. similar to ecaccess-
       file-copy ... -erase).

       The source-ecaccess-file and target-ecaccess-file are in the form [domain:][/user-id/]path. Please read the "Shell commands -> File
       Management" section of the "ecaccess" guide for more information on the ECaccess File System.

ARGUMENTS

       source-ecaccess-file
	       The source ECaccess File name.

       target-ecaccess-file
	       The target ECaccess File name.

OPTIONS

       -version
	       Display version number and exits.

       -help   Print a brief help message and exits.

       -manual Prints the manual page and exits.

       -debug  Display the SOAP messages exchanged.

EXAMPLES

       ecaccess-file-move ec:test1.txt ec:test2.txt

       Rename the test1.txt file in the ECFS directory of the authenticated user in test2.txt.

       ecaccess-file-move ec:test1.txt home:test2.txt

       Copy the test1.txt file from the ECFS directory of the authenticated user to the test2.txt file in the $HOME directory of the authenticated
       user, then delete the test1.txt file from ECFS.
