commande mailx : spaces in the title
Hello !

I use mailx to send emails.
I use it like that
Code:
  mailx -s $titleMail $mailAdr < BODY_MAIL.txt

The problem , is if i have some spaces in the variable titleMail it is
considered by the command mailx like other mail adress to send the mail.

Anyone would have a suggestion on how to successfully have a title for the mail including spaces ?

We've vound teh problem ; it was a basic mistake.

In fact the right use of the command would have been :
Code:
mailx -s "$titleMail" $mailAdr < BODY_MAIL.txt

This way we can have spaces in the variable titleMail.
