How to send email from /usr/bin/mail?
 

Hi,
I use gmail for all of my emailing needs but stumbled upon linux counter at counter.li.org. Now I registered on the site and downloaded the machine-update script from the site. So I ran it and it collected the required data. But when I run ./machine-update -m as they have told, I guess no mail gets sent as I have to configure the mail program. How do I configure it so that it sends mail from my gmail address using stmp?

What you want is sending mail using a smarthost.
This article http://blog.tonyscelfo.com/2009/07/u...ing-exim4.html describes the setup for Debian systems. Dunno how that is in Archlinux, but this should give you a starting point so you know what to look for.
