Is it possible to change this behaviour ? I thought to a bash script runned by cron every ten minuts: #!/bin/sh if grep -q e /var/spool/mail/Proprietario then echo "ok ci siamo" fi but so cron send me an email with the text "ok ci siamo". I tought at the write command #!/bin/sh if grep -q e /var/spool/mail/Proprietario then echo "ok ci siamo" | write Proprietario AT 1g-m2hg3kl fi but in cygwin, there is no "write" command. Is there something like it or another way to be advised ?? -- 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/
