Sending e-mail using shell scripts
Most script programmers already know how easy it is to send e-mail from within shell scripts. A simple invocation of the mail program with the recipient for a command line argument will send all data read from standard input:

$ mail root < /tmp/db_reorg.log
$ echo "Coming home for dinner!" | mail [email protected]

The "mail" command accepts additional command line parameters, e.g.

-s subject Use subject for the e-mail title
-c address Send copy of the mail to the specified address
-b address Send blind carbon copy to specified address

Some common usage examples:

Send a log file to the system administrator:
# mail -s "Reorganization completed" root < db_reorg.log

Send mail to "mark" with copy to "john":
$ echo "John's coming with us" |
mail -c john -s "Join us watching Star Wars" mark

Portability

Note that not all mail commands have an "-s" option to specify a mail subject. Sometimes an extended version of the mail command is available with the name "mailx", e.g. /usr/ucb/mailx, or "Mail" (with a capital "M").

But how can we "attach" a file to a mail? We know that newer mail readers like Mozilla, Netscape Messenger or Microsoft Exchange have a way of displaying file attachments, e.g. images, ZIP files or audio files. How can we send some mail text (e.g. "See this picture of me surfing!") together with a binary file (e.g. "surfing.jpeg")?
