Yes, it relies on MTA (and I thought that ssmtp is good default for Cygwin) since original mailx does the same. Althought one could simply use netcat, but that brakes SMTP protocol and this behaviour is recently becoming forbidden. I forgot to mention in erlier post, that script is ksh and bash compatibile, so there is more to choose :) -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
