Hi,

if i understand you correctly your commands will result in a file
consisting for directory names line by line? If this is so, try:

Code:
while read clients
do
  cp /data/new/* /var/tmp/"$clients"/inbound
done < clients

If my assumption is wrong, please post an example of your clients-file
and the files to be copied.
