Hi,
We are using the sendmail utility on our AIX box to send emails to our clients in our network. During the last one month it is NOT working properly. The problem is that the subject line coming as blank in the email.
We are using the following syntax for the past one year.
smartmail.sh <alias> <file to attach> <subject> | sendmail -t
The program smartmail.sh is below:
function formatheader
{
mailids=$(echo $mailid | sed 's/ /,/g')
print "to: $mailids
sub: $sub
content-type: text/html
" > $tmp
}
function formatbody
{
print "<html>
<body>
" >> $tmp
cat $fil >> $tmp
print "
</body>
</html>
" >> $tmp
}
function exitWithSplash
{
print "usage : smartmail <alias> <file> <subject> "
exit 1
}
####
# main sir
#####
if [[[[ $# -lt 3 ]]]]
then
exitWithSplash
fi
usr=$1
fil=$2
sub=$3
tmp=/tmp/smartmail.$$
maildb=$HOME/.mailrc
rm -f $tmp
data=$(cat $maildb | grep "^alias $usr ")
if [[[[ $? -ne 0 ]]]]
then
print "Sorry no records found with alias $usr in $maildb"
exit 1
fi
if [[[[ ! -f $fil ]]]]
then
print "Sorry file $fil could not be opened .. exit status $?"
exit 1
fi
echo $data | while read a b mailid
do
formatheader
formatbody
done
cat $tmp
Can someone please help on what's wrong with our sendmail utility.
Thanx..
PS: The program smartmail.sh is working fine.
