HI All,

Actually my server is linux environment Redhot server.
To send a mail which command I have to use it . I want subject and I want to Include CC also
And body of the mail also there . But If I use rmail command it is not taking any options to include subject and CC and body of the mail?

If mail and rmail have no subject line or cc options, try mailx. You can add header lines using
Code:
mailx -s 'Your-Subject
Addtional-header-line-1'
