Yes, I agree with CLX, before implementing this line of code, first check which mail command is install on your system. There are some commands for mail :
mail, mailx. pine, mutt etc

to check the command availablity
use
Code:
whereis command1 command2 .....

if you got the o/p for any, that is installed on your system
