Grep & EMail "HOW to quit ??? "
Hello All,


I am using the below code to grep particular word from file and then emailing it through mail command. the problem is this that when i run the script so it stops and ask me for the mail body then it asks for cc: and then runs.

I dont want to give body and cc: address, i just want that the script executes and email me and dont ask anything.

Code:
#/bin/ksh
/usr/bin/grep -q 'particular word'  /home/danial/FILE.TXT
if [ $? -eq 0 ]
    echo "particular word found "
     mail -s 'found it' me@mymailaccount.com
fi

I hope you understand my requirement.

Regards,
Waqas Ahmed

Hammer & Screwdriver can you use mailx?
Perhaps try
Code:
mailx -s "found it" jg@abc.com <file20

where file20 is the message body of the message
