#!/bin/ksh

# Author: Manish Vijayvergiya
# Purpose: Script to mail the processed error reports
# ModDate: 20070329

# Create the list of users to mail
export MAILLIST="richard@coty,manish_vijayvergiya@coty"

export MAILCMD=$(which mail)

# Mail the report to the prospective users
${MAILCMD} -s "Error Reports for $(date +%x)" ${MAILLIST} < /ec/rpt/err/pperrorOTHR10.rpt
