Therefore, you can use mutt to reference msmtp to send emails. In general, mutt is installed by default. if it is not installed in the system, you can install it using yum-y install mutt. Open the mutt configuration file and modify the following four items (vi/etc/Muttrc ). 1. set sendmail = "/usr/local/msmtp/bin/msmtp" 2.set use_from = yes3.set realname = jack@163.com # The Mailbox account 4.set editor = "vi" configured above is now, we can test the command to send an email. Echo "Mail content" | mutt-s "Mail subject" jack@163.com or you can write the Mail content in the file: cat file.txt | mutt-s "Mail subject" jack@163.com uses the mutt command in the script to enable automatic mail sending.
