How can I send an email through the UNIX mailx command?
Solution 1:
an example
$ echo "something" | mailx -s "subject" [email protected]
to send attachment
$ uuencode file file | mailx -s "subject" [email protected]
and to send attachment AND write the message body
$ (echo "something\n" ; uuencode file file) | mailx -s "subject" [email protected]
Solution 2:
Here you are :
echo "Body" | mailx -r "FROM_EMAIL" -s "SUBJECT" "To_EMAIL"
PS. Body and subject should be kept within double quotes.
Remove quotes from FROM_EMAIL and To_EMAIL while substituting email addresses.
Solution 3:
mailx -s "subjec_of_mail" [email protected] < file_name
through mailx utility we can send a file from unix to mail server.
here in above code we can see
first parameter is -s "subject of mail"
the second parameter is mail ID and the last parameter is name of file which we want to attach
Solution 4:
mail [-s subject] [-c ccaddress] [-b bccaddress] toaddress
-c and -b are optional.
-s : Specify subject;if subject contains spaces, use quotes.
-c : Send carbon copies to list of users seperated by comma.
-b : Send blind carbon copies to list of users seperated by comma.
Hope my answer clarifies your doubt.
Solution 5:
Its faster with MUTT command
echo "Body Of the Email" | mutt -a "File_Attachment.csv" -s "Daily Report for $(date)" -c [email protected] [email protected] -y
- -c email cc list
- -s subject list
- -y to send the mail
