Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Using mailx to send in the future? Also change "from" address? Post 302256836 by kah00na on Monday 10th of November 2008 04:46:09 PM

If you have your "atd" running, you can use this format:


Code:
echo "mailx -s 'subject' e@mail.com << /path/to/file" | at 15:03

This will send the e-mail out at the next instance of "15:03" (3:03 p.m.)... today if it is currently before 15:03, or tomorrow if it is after 15:03.
