Operating Systems AIX Need help on sending emails to Lotus Notes from Unix Post 302416495 by bresett on Monday 26th of April 2010 04:13:18 PM

uuencode as RTF and send via mailx

When going to Outlook (use to use Notes and this worked then…) on a PC I like to use uuencode to convert the file to a rtf allowing for founts to be used by email client:

cat <file> |uuencode <file>.rtf |mails –s “This is an attached text doc” me@mailhouse.com

To be safe on the continent use strings to omit an extended characters:
strings <file> |uuencode <file>.rtf |mails –s “This is an attached text doc” me@mailhouse.com

If you have data that’s “,” separated and want it to be opened by a spreadsheet label the file as CSV:
cat <file> |uuencode <file>.csv |mails –s “This is an attached CSV” me@mailhouse.com




ALSO: mailx -v will show the connection flow... Helps if you don't know if the SMTP has been configured. AND, mailq will show any outgoing e-mails that are still sitting around on the local server.



Hope this helps,


mb
