Email 101 in Unix
This sends an email from a file:
mail -s “here is the subject” email@rigler.org,otheremail@rigler.org < /etc/motd
This sends an email from a pipe:
ls -l | mail -s “here is the subject” email@rigler.org,otheremail@rigler.org
When you first install the system, if you have /etc/resolv.conf configured, email will figure out
where to go.
If you want to forward email sent to your unix account to a different account, just add the email
address that you want to use to a file called ~/.forward
