cygwin:
I would like to send e-mail messages from Cygwin Bash scripts. I have
installed the "email" and "exim" packages. When I attempt to send a test
message form the command line, it fails:
2006-05-21 15:13:46 dpchrist@p3533 ~
$ cat foo
test message.
line 2
bye.
2006-05-21 15:14:02 dpchrist@p3533 ~
$ /usr/bin/email -s test dpchrist@holgerdanske.com < foo
E-Mail Sent
sh: /usr/lib/sendmail: No such file or directory
It looks like I'm missing a library (/usr/lib/sendmail). Looking for a
Cygwin package containing this file reveals nothing:
http://cygwin.com/packages/
Looking for a sendmail binary reveals nothing:
2006-05-21 15:21:57 dpchrist@p3533 ~
$ which sendmail
sendmail: Command not found.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
David
p.s. My cygcheck.out is attached FYI.
