Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Script to automate a service message Post 303005944 by Gamma on Wednesday 25th of October 2017 07:42:20 AM

Hi

I am using Linux version 7.2 and I want users to see the message when they log into the application via front end i.e. url. And here they will see the message and click on dismiss continue etc... This could be when we are delivering a new release, every quarter and so on.

At the moment it is just manual process, and just needs the message portion, few lines automating, within a .sh script probably will do the trick.

Hope this helps. Please Advise.

The other thing is /etc/motd probably works as if you are logging into a shell rather than displaying this message on front end application, so been searching around, don't think that will be helpful?

I don't know if there is something sed command or simpler which can replace or setup custom tags between the service message?

Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks

MAILDIRKW(1)						      Double Precision, Inc.						      MAILDIRKW(1)

NAME
maildirkw - set maildir message keywords SYNOPSIS
maildirkw [-c] [-l] [-a] [-r] {maildir} {message} [keyword...] maildirkw [-c] {-L} {maildir} DESCRIPTION
maildirkw modifies the Courier IMAP server compatible maildir message keywords. This command allows an easy way to set or clear custom IMAP keywords associated with a particular message. maildir is the pathname to a maildir, or a maildir folder. The -L option lists all messages in the maildir, and their associated keywords. message specified which message's keywords should be set. One or more keywords specifies a list of keywords to be set for this message. The specified list of keywords replaces any keywords presently set for the message, unless the -a or the -r option is specified. The -a option adds the keyword to existing keywords that are set for message. The -r removes keywords from message, leaving any remaining keywords set in place. The -l should be used if the Courier IMAP server's configuration file has the IMAP_USELOCKS option set. -l enables a compatible locking mechanism to update the message's keywords. -c enables case-sensitive keywords. IMAP keywords are normally case insensitive. -c needs to be used if the SMAP1[1] protocol extension is used, which uses case sensitive keywords. SEE ALSO
