Hmm, well that looks like you can work most things out for yourself, see if these hints lets you work out the rest: Have a look at the "mail" command, and add a bit more to the line in your script, using it. You may have to also configure sendmail so that locally generated mail goes out with a real internet domain name (i.e. you're unlikely be able to send out an e-mail from root@localhost, for instance). I think that's a "masquerading" option, just going from memory. But you might want to look at the sendmail website, for more help with configuring sendmail than the docs that come with Fedora. -- (Currently running FC4, occasionally trying FC5.)
