I forgot that. >This may be what he meant, but isn't that for which he asked. The one I left quoted is. /usr/sbin/sendmail is a symlink to exim4 when you have exim4 installed. I guess I could have made that clearer by saying: printf 'Headers\n\nBody' | /usr/sbin/exim4 -i 'recipient#1' 'recipient#2' >To answer Yuriy's question, I don't know enough SMTP to be able to talk >to exim directly to send a mail with exim4. You don't have to. exim4 acts as a sendmail replacement, so it will accept emails on stdin. (This will also bypass certain SMTP-only ACLs.) >mailx works well for scripts or short emails from the command line. For >normal everyday use, install mutt.
