Dave,
My preferred way is to use sendmail directly. Here's an example:
- - - - - snip - - - - -
#!/bin/sh
sendmail -t <<EOF
To: recipient1 recipient2
From: UNIX
Subject: Your subject goes here
Here is an example of a couple of binary attachment:
$(uuencode /usr/lib/sendmail sendmail)
$(uuencode /usr/bin/cp cp)
Here's some text attachments:
$(uuencode /etc/hosts hosts.txt)
$(uuencode /etc/passwd passwd.txt)
$(uuencode /etc/group group.txt)
And what the heck, lets include the output of a command or two:
Here's the output of du -sk:
$(du -sk)
Here's the output of netstat -n:
$(netstat -n)
EOF
- - - - - snip - - - - -
Give the above code a try. Just replace "recipient1 recipient2" with your
email address.
Note: Since the above is a shell script the actual file names could be
replace with variables.
Here's another benefit of using sendmail directly (since you said you're
sending to Lotus Notes). Some of our Lotus Notes group names contain
spaces. I've not found any way to send to these accounts other than using
sendmail with the -t option. For example, say you have a Lotus Notes group
called "AIX Discussion List". You could send an email to that group as
follows:
sendmail -t <<EOF
To: "AIX Discussion List"
From: Whoever
Subject: blah blah blah
body of email goes here
EOF
