General :: Write A Script To Send General Mail To Users At 9AM Everyday In 4?
Mar 3, 2010
I want to write a shell script, so that at 9AM every morning a general will be sent automatically to my network users E-Mail ID. My users are as follows: akhtaruzzaman@a[URL], ariful.[URL] etc.
Below is my little effort:
# !/bin/bash
userlist=`cut -f 1 -d : /etc/passwd`
mail -s "mailbackup" << END
keep mailbackup in another drive daily for security purpose
I'm trying to send mail to other users on the same host, but they don't arrive.I've tried using mail and alpine. Both programs apparently work fine, in that they behave as expected and apparently send the email.But when logging in as the recipient, there is no mail in /var/spool/mail, and nothing in alpine INBOX
I have been able to use the mail program on my old Ubuntu instasll which I found quite handy. However, it isn't functioning "out of the box" like I expected. I've tried to configure it as mail was in Ubuntu to no avail.
I have got a nagios server running on my network, The configuration seems to be okay but each time there is a service alert notification, and an e-mail is sent to the contact group, Nagios continuously sends e-mail over and over again. Do anyone know of a way to set Nagios directives to only send one e-mail per alert without it flooding mail boxes.

i am trying to set up a mail server that will support users in a LAN in my school. I am using postfix on a Mandrakelinux distro.
I can send mail when I am root to the other user on my (same) machine both when in command line (mail command) and on Graphical mail client (Kmail ) but the user (sam) cannot send mail to the root account on either interfaces.

All client servers able to send mail through the postfix server, only user of local postfix server(root, etc) unable to send mail with command like mutt, mail.My detail configuration given below:
I use gmail for all of my emailing needs but stumbled upon linux counter at counter.li.org. Now I registered on the site and downloaded the machine-update script from the site. So I ran it and it collected the required data. But when I run ./machine-update -m as they have told, I guess no mail gets sent as I have to configure the mail program. How do I configure it so that it sends mail from my gmail address using stmp?
so I'm really new to using Linux, and I searched the forums, but most people seem to have trouble sending mail, not receiving it. When I send mail from the CLI, it gets delivered fine (from travis@travishoward.net) But when I try to reply or mail to the server, I get this message back:
Code: ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <travis@travishoward.net> (reason: 554 5.7.1 <travis@travishoward.net>: Relay access denied)

Send an E-mail to your local account. Try two different ways to send and read it. How can you check that it really arrived? I decided to try using the 'mail' and 'pine' commands. So:
1) Using the root account, intending to send an e-mail to myself (root):
Code:
# mail -s "Hello root!" root Simple form of sending e-mails internally. ^D (this keystroke is to finish the e-mail) EOT
2) Using 'pine', another e-mail client: The mail is composed correctly, with 'To:' field set to:

which is my hostname, as my box runs in a VMWare Slack 12.2 image. In both cases, nothing was received in my mailbox (by typing #mail)... Additionally I don't see any new e-mails when I look at the file '/var/spool/mail/root'. Do I need extra information configuring my mail client/server/service?
I have one major problem in my mail server. I am not able to send mail to other domain yahoo and rediff. and my ipaddress is blacklisted. So Finally I checked logs. Mail queue is high. Log shows spam and junk mail created in my mail server. he following are the logs. Iam using qmail server. One more thing is in link is there when I click that link its go sex websites. I will try all mail queue logs. It shows the same website redirection. So I don't know its happen. My thought is spam create from that website.
It does not send mail if I only add contact_groups in host definition.

Using Thunderbird 3.1.10 and no longer can see copies of my sent messages in the Sent Folder. I tried to tick the box in account settings to save a copy and it would not take the change. What I did notice is that the e-mails sent are being received on the other end, but I do not have a copy in the Sent folder. It seems as though my e-mail account has been hijacked, and I changed my e-mail account password as a precaution. I am also getting e-mail BACK in my in box that I sent to other people. My AT&T account uses yahoo and my account through AT&T was originally bellsouth.net What can I do to make sure I get a copy of all of my e-mail sent out?
