Two other methods:

Redirect from a file:

mailx -s "subject" address at domain.com < filename

Redirect from a "here" file:

mailx -s "subject" address at domain.com <<-EOF

Note the EOF marker needs to start in column 1.

Hi
Yhis may be a stuppid question but i have been looking and testing for 60
minuttes now.

How can i send a message from a script without pipe the message into the
mailx program

This works fine

echo testthismail | mailx -s "testmail from e" shj at pine.dk
testthismail will bw the message of the mail.

Now i need to do the mailx from a perl script and i dont want to pipe the
message into the command, how can i do it another way.

Kind regards
