Topic: Mail command

Hello,

I'm trying to make a script using mail command (to send logfile after backup)

On all systems I've ever made, mail command works when I installed mailx or mailutils.

I installed mailutils on a iRedmail server, and this command doesn't work.

What change in this server ?

Thanks smile

Re: Mail command

It works fine with mutt :

- to install mutt : apt-get install mutt (for my ubuntu server 10.04.1)

- syntax : mutt -s "Subject" mailadress@tosend.themail < /path/of/the/log

Thanks shake wink
