Then hit the key combination of Control+D to continue. The command prompt will ask you if you want to mark a copy of the mail to any other address, hit Control+D again. Check your mailbox. This command will send out a mail to the email id mentioned with the subject, “Hello”.


# echo “This will go into the body of the mail.”
mail -s “Hello ” you@youremailid.com


And if you want mail to read the content from a file:

#mail -s “Hello ” you@youremailid.com < /home/user/application.log

Some other useful options in the mail command are:

-s subject (The subject of the mail)
-c email-address (Mark a copy to this “email-address”, or CC)
-b email-address (Mark a blind carbon copy to this “email-address”, or BCC)
