All my scripts start with #! /bin/ksh so that they will excuted in the ksh shell.
but the scripts will not run correctly. The enviroment varibales are
As you can see i am using the pfksh as my default shell, This is the same as on my solaris 8 box.

after further investigation, it appears that there is a difference between the ksh on solaris 8 and Solaris 10. i copied the ksh from 8 to 10 and the scripts run fine. put back the original ksh and the scripts stop working.
so something has changed in the ksh between 8 and 10.
Solaris 10 ksh is seeing functions defined in a sourced file by design. There must be something specific in your set-up. Can you post a reproducible real example of different behavior observed between Solaris 8 and 10 ksh ?

I'm using autosys and want to set it up that I receive emails when certain jobs start and finish. I don't want to edit each jobs script (ksh) to send a mail at start and finish, I would rather have a single script/job that watches for a trigger when the jobs have started or finished.
