adding multiple email ID
Hi,
I have a script running as a cron job. Is it possible to send the output to multiple user through mail. I cant add multiple mail id.

Code:
_TOADDR=xxx@xxx.com;xxx@xxx.com
_FROMADDR=xxx@xxx.com

from=$_FROMADDR
emailtarget=$_TOADDR
subject=$_SUBJECT
CONTENT=$1

Is it possible to send to multiple mail id.

Thanks,
Ahamed

For mailx (and I imagine sendmail) use a comma "," instead of a semi-colon ";" as the separator between email addresses, e.g.:
Code:
mailx -s "mail to multiple users" tom@doman.com,dick@domain1.com,harry@domain2.com < message.txt

So in your case:
Code:
_TOADDR="xxx@xxx.com,xxx@xxx.com"
