RE: shell script to send mail

 Hello,

Thanks to every one who responded to my query.

I tried doing like this:-

mailx -s "from sco system" viraj999_at_lycos.com < msg

where msg contained: "this is test only" and saved it as file

BUT the problem is that I have not received this mail in this address.

Am I doing some thing wrong; looking at man mailx, I have been through all the files (mbox,mail,dead.letter) etc. but to of no use, there is nothing there.

Please help.

Regards,

Raja
