Hi,
I was meaning what is the nature of the system that's running the script ? What you're running on your own PC isn't really relevant. Is it Linux/Solaris/AIX/etc, and what shell are you using ? If you copy-and-paste in its entirety the sample code I gave you into a fresh script (with the only change being the e-mail address), does that at least run and send you an e-mail ?

NAME
mailcompat - provide SunOS compatibility for Solaris mailbox format
DESCRIPTION
mailcompat is a program to provide SunOS 4.x compatability for the Solaris mailbox format. You would typically run mailcompat to be able
to read mail on a workstation running SunOS 4.x when your mail server is running Solaris.
Enabling mailcompat creates an entry in your .forward file, if it exists. If this file does not exist, mailcompat will create it. Dis-
abling mailcompat will remove the entry from the .forward file, and if this was the only entry, will remove the entire file.
To execute mailcompat, log onto the Solaris mail server and enter mailcompat on the command line. Answer the queries provided by the pro-
gram.
USAGE
See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of mailcompat when encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2**31 bytes).
