[NTLUG:Discuss] need script that sends email message

[Raymond Norton]

Thank you!

I should have explained myself a little better ( I am new to Linux). I am
not clear how to call the script, or where to place it. If I'm doing NT, I
would just reference a .bat file that had a Blat statement in it.

Are you able to be real specific on syntax, location, etc..??
