 |
|
Hi, I need an email program which I can start via command line and set the subject, text, reveiver and attachmant by Parameters. This program should connect to a mailserver via SMTP protocol.
Example:
# mailit /REC=someone@somewhere /SUB="Testmail" /TEXT="Hallo again" /ATT=/documents/mypdf.pdf
Thanks,
Rob |

Have you tried mail? I can't recall what package it in... but it is exactelly what you are looking for... on the command line you can do | Code: | | mail somebody@somehwere -s subject -s attachement < test. |
This shout also work with mutt. Someone correct me if I'm wrong...
HTH
regards

another good choice for this is the classic "mail" programm, which is in the "mailx" package.
so, emerge mailx, then man mail  |
