mailx sender address customisation
Hi All,
I'm on UNIX -Solaris...
I'm trying to send mail usin Mailx..... The script is working fine and attachments are also being sent....
BUT, when I receive the mail,, the sender address shown is the unix login id name.... Any way by which I could manipulate this in my script command or any parameter that can set for this purpose....however, I would prefer manipulating in the shell script.
The present shell script.... is :
name=$1
cat /bdcusers/sddata/zv03 | uuencode /bdcusers/sddata/report.txt | mailx -s "ZV03 Report"
$name
Any help would be greatly apprciated...
Thankx and regds..
