How can i send an email through UNIX mailx command

Answer 1

Its faster with MUTT command

echo "Body Of the Email"  | mutt -a "File_Attachment.csv" -s "Daily Report for $(date)"  -c [e-mail] [e-mail] -y

1. -c email cc list
2. -s subject list
3. -y to send the mail

Answer 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.

Answer 3

mailx -s "subjec_of_mail" [e-mail] < 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

Answer 4

Customizing FROM address

MESSAGE="SOME MESSAGE"
SUBJECT="SOME SUBJECT"
TOADDR="[e-mail]"
FROM="DONOTREPLY"

echo $MESSAGE | mail  -s "$SUBJECT" $TOADDR  -- -f $FROM
