Send output of a command as an email
Hello Unix Experts!

We are on AIX 6.1 TL6

I am trying to develop a script that does the following:

It should send the output of "df -g /directory/folder" command as an email to a user(someone@company.com)

This is too simple and i can research on how to do it, but it would be great if someone can give me the code for this.

Thanks!

We need to put that script in the crontab, so i just need the code for the above logic

Thanks so much !!!
