Shell Programming and Scripting

Code:

echo 'ABCD="//name1:111"' | sed 's/.*\/\/\([^:]*\):.*/\1/'

Hi all,

I am writing a script wherein I have got a file date3 in my current directory
which I want to send to my lotes notes id abc.com via email.

I have seen a number of posts on this but unable to get my work done.

here is the code which I have tried

cat date3 | mailx -s "hii" abc.com

but it directly comes on prompt without giving any output whereas I want to get this file date3 on my mail box id i.e abc.com

I am working on HP-UX.

Feel free to share your ideas or any solutions related to this.

thanks in advance,
haris

Hi vgersh99,

It gives me this error when I try to post a new thread.

The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 5 characters.

please tell me how to avoid this.

thanks in advance,

well...... I think what's telling you is that 'your message is too short' and that you need to 'lengthen your message to at least 5 characters.'
Is that your understanding as well?

If you see my first post on this page i.e after summer cherry had replied is quite lengthy.
atleast more than 5 charcters and title that I am entering is also more than five characters.
but this problem seems to continue.
any solutions.

thanks in advance,
