-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I have a number of identical virtual Linux machines (All RedHat Enterprise AS release 4 (Nahant Update 8)) and on one of them, invoking the 'mail' command generates an error, although the command itself gets executed correctly. This is what I mean: [root@overlook mail]# ls|mail -s "test" ycsapo@xxxxxxxxx Unknown command: "" But I do receive the message. To compare, here's the same thing on one of the other boxes: [root@trailhead ycsapo]# ls|mail -s "test" ycsapo@xxxxxxxxx Null message body; hope that's ok And I also receive the message. By the way, I see the same thing even if I invoke mail all by itself with no params. I can't find a difference in configuration between the boxes. Any ideas where to look?
