Automatically send mail

[neetsw]

Hi, I need a script that automatically send mail every day with the tail of a certain file. Any help on how I must do this will be appreciated. (Is there any way to use sendmail so that it doesn't use the mail server as a relay server, because relaying is not enabled on our mail server (lotus notes serevr) Thanks.

Do you have a Domino smtp server ? If so, just mail the log to your company E-mail address...such as this:

#!/bin/ksh

Now, create an alias in /etc/aliases (or /etc/mail/aliases under AIX 5.x) such as this:


root:bverzal,jamundsen
bverzal:bverzal@komatsuna.com
jamundsen:jamundsen@komatsuna.com


Run 'newaliases' and you should be good to go.
