E-mail mechanism in ShellScript.


Hi,
I have writeen two scripts which will e-mail the output to the respective ids.
One script is as below:

echo "$SERVERNAME" > /home/xmuser/MiddlewareNotification/Util/SingleNodeStatus/SingleNodeStatus.
echo "Server Down " >> /home/xmuser/MiddlewareNotification/Util/SingleNodeStatus/SingleNodeStatus.txt
subject="$SERVERNAME Server($IP) is down on `date` "
emailcontent='/home/xmuser/MiddlewareNotification/Util/SingleNodeStatus/NodeStatusEmailContent.txt'
echo "Subject: ${subject}" > ${emailcontent}
cat /home/xmuser/MiddlewareNotification/Util/SingleNodeStatus/SingleNodeStatus.txt>> ${emailcontent}
/usr/sbin/sendmail -f $sender_email $receiver_email < ${emailcontent}

It is working fine and we are getting the mails.

But the e-mail part of second script is as below:

ErrorLogFile=`echo $1|sed 's/.* @#@#//'|awk -F@#@# '{print $4}'|sed 's/ .*//'`
EMAIL_LIST=`echo $1|sed 's/.* @#@#//'|awk -F@#@# '{print $1}'|sed 's/ .*//'`
InterfaceName=`echo $1|sed 's/.* @#@#//'|awk -F@#@# '{print $2}'|sed 's/ .*//'`
SUBJECT="File Transfer Status - $InterfaceName >>Successful, Environment >> $2 "
ERROR_FILE_TEXT=`cat /home/xmuser/MiddlewareNotification/$ErrorLogFile`
if [ -n "$EMAIL_LIST" ]
then

for MAIL_TO in $EMAIL_LIST
do
BODY="File Transfer Status - $FILE_TRANSFER_STATUS"
BOUNDARY='=== This is the boundary between parts of the message. ==='
{
print - "From: Middleware Account<tpdamrki@wgchost>"
print - "To: $EMAIL_LIST"
print - 'Subject:' $SUBJECT
print - 'MIME-Version: 1.0'
print - 'Content-Type: MULTIPART/MIXED; '
print - ' BOUNDARY='\"$BOUNDARY\"
print -
print - ' This message is in MIME format. But if you can see this,'
print - ' you aren't using a MIME aware mail program. You shouldn't '
print - ' have too many problems because this message is entirely in'
print - ' ASCII and is designed to be somewhat readable with old '
print - ' mail software.'
print -
print - "--${BOUNDARY}"
print - 'Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII'
print -
#echo $BODY
#if [ -z "$ERROR_EXISTS" ] && [ $InterfaceName = 'EDI832_Inbound_Interface' ]
#then
#echo "File tranferred successfully for $InterfaceName at `date +"%Y.%m.%d.%H:%M:%S"`"
#else
cat /home/xmuser/MiddlewareNotification/$ErrorLogFile
#fi
print -
print -
print - "--${BOUNDARY}"
print - 'Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; name='None
print - 'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='
print -
print -
print - "--${BOUNDARY}--"
} | /usr/sbin/sendmail $MAIL_TO

done

fi

The abobve script is throwing error as below:

----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
<Debasish.Mishra@tcs.com>
(reason: 553 #5.1.8 Domain of sender address <xmuser@wgcwebsphere03.wearguard-crest.com> does not exist)

----- Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to inmumg01.tcs.com.:
>>> MAIL From:<xmuser@wgcwebsphere03.wearguard-crest.com> SIZE=1738
<<< 553 #5.1.8 Domain of sender address <xmuser@wgcwebsphere03.wearguard-crest.com> does not exist
501 5.6.0 Data format error

Both the scripts are on same server,how I am getting the domain error?Can anyone please advice?

Thanks in advance

I don't know if this is the case, but once I got the same error when I did not specify the sender address with the -f option to sendmail. You did in the first script, not in the second one. Eventually you can give it a try.

Email mechanism in shell script

The second script is working fine when I am giving the mail id (to which the mail needs to be sent) within server network.But when I am giving the mail id outside the network(outside the firewall of that network)it is not working.
But,the first script is working fine with both the above cases.Can anyone please tell me what for is that -f option?
