CENTOS uses MUTT to send emails. centosmutt

Sometimes we need to send emails on the Centos server, such as backing up the MySQL database and sending it to the specified mailbox. Here we will talk about how to send emails from the Centos shell command.

Check, install, and start sendmail

// Check ps-ef | grep sendmail // install yum install sendmail // start service sendmail start // start chkconfig -- level 2345 sendmail on

Check and install mutt

// Check whether mutt is installed. If mutt is installed,/usr/bin/mutt # which mutt will be returned. // install mutt # yum install mutt

Configure mutt

// Copy. muttrc # cp/etc/Muttrc/root/. muttrc for the root user

Configure mutt. The above two methods are modified in the same way.

# Set charset = "UTF-8" # customize the sender information set envelope_from = yes # This line does not exist by default, please manually add set use_from = yes set from = xxx.com@xx.comset realname = "Master Lee"

Test email sending

// Syntax mutt [-hnpRvxz] [-a <File>] [-B <address>] [-c <address>] [-f <email>] [- F <Configuration File>] [-H <email draft>] [-I <File>] [-m <type>] [-s <topic>] [email address]

Send

Mutt 1343652445@qq.com-s "test mutt"-a test.txt <test.txt echo "mail body" | mutt 1343652445@qq.com-s "xxxx"-a test.txt

 

If the email is sent incorrectly, view the log (/var/log/maillog)
