Hi everyone
	i am using a SCO system at work and am trying to get something
to work.  I am not too familiar with MMDF that is what we are using
for mail on this particular system.  I have a question about
delivering mail from this system and would appreciate any direct
responses... thanks.
	I am getting some info from the general database where
everything is stored.  The info is 1) message addressed to, 2) sent
by, 3) Subject and 4) message body. I need to put this togther and
send it out.  I thought of invoking
"sendmail -t < file-where-info-is-stored", but am not sure if that is
how to go about it.  we do not have a sendmail.cf file on this system.

	Any help or pointers to docs that will help will be
appreciated.  Thanks.

If "/usr/lib/sendmail -t < file" doesn't work, then strip out the
"To:", "From:" and "Subject:" headers and do:

cat file | mail -s "The subject" recipient@remote.dom

If your MMDF is configured properly this should get out.
