Data Sendmail via KSH.
Hi to all!
I have the necessity to handle errors in my ksh script sending errors via e-mail.

Do you have any idea about this? More exactly I wish optimize this situation using an external distribution list of all internet address mail.

Many thanks in advance for your kind cooperation.

Regards,

Giovanni

Hi gio,

You can pipe the error messages to the mail filter (or elm)

for eg

echo "Error here"|mail gio

for more mail options see the man for mail

also try to explore the elm (which unix are u using). There are many more mail utilities, I like elm
