ksh - for loop with variables

Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi,

I 'm trying to send an e-mail for every different line in the .txt

for i in {1..$variable}
do
sed -n "/$i$/p" text.txt
done

I have two problems about this.
First one is that for loop doesn't work
and the second one is that i cant get the output of sed

2 
while read myLine
do
  echo "this is my line->[${myLine}]"
done < text.txt
3 
for i in `seq 1 $variable`
do
 sed  -n ''$i',$p'  text.txt
 echo "send mail....."
done
4 
for i in `cat test.txt`
do
#print the line in the file test.txt
echo $i
#send mail
echo $i | mailx -s "test subject" test@mail.com
done
