use code tags please.

Quote:
20 message= echo "$SYSTIME : $HOST /$i $XXX% Full!"
21 printf "$message" >> "$message2"
22 echo $message2

I am quite sure there are some syntax errors.
line 20:
when you execute a command for a variable, use $().
Code:
message=$(echo "$SYSTIME : $HOST /$i $XXX% Full!")

line 21:
"$message2" must be a file. I couldn't see you have defined anything to it.


what are you getting with "echo $message2" ??

The options are: Subject The subject of the email message. EmailFrom The sender of the email message. EmailTo The recipient of the email message. SendBinaryData Use yes/true/on/1 to attach all binary files from the problem directory to the email. This can cause the emails to be very large. Integration with ABRT events reporter-mailx can be used as a reporter, to allow users report problems via email when they decide to do it. This usage is pre-configured in /etc/libreport/events.d/mailx_event.conf: EVENT=report_Mailx reporter-mailx It can also be used to notify administrator automatically when a problem happens. When this is desired, modify the event configuration file to run the tool on the post-create event: EVENT=post-create reporter-mailx OPTIONS

Mailx_EmailTo Recipient of the email message. If nor the environment variable nor the corresponding option is defined, the message is send to "root@localhost".
