I'm trying to send an email with HTML content, but it doesn't send formatted.
This is my code,
print OUT "To: $email\n";
print OUT "From: $pedidos\n";
print OUT "CC: $pedidos\n";
print OUT "BCC: $tecnico\n";
print OUT "Subject: $subject\n";
print OUT "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n\n";
print OUT "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN'>";
print OUT "<html><head><title>Title</title></head>";
(...more html...)
Any idea?
Thanks!
Well, for one thing, you left out
print OUT "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
without which your Content-type header doesn't mean anything. I'm assuming that content going to OUT is correctly being emailed.

My below code convert .csv file to html table format file
awk 'BEGIN{
FS=","
print "MIME-Version: 1.0"
print "Content-Type: text/html"
print "Content-Disposition: inline"
print "<HTML>""<TABLE border="1"><TH>Name</TH><TH>City</TH><TH>Course</TH>"
}
{
printf "<TR>"
for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)
printf "<TD>%s</TD>", $i
print "</TR>"
}
END{
print "</TABLE></BODY></HTML>"
}
' file-to-convert.csv > StudentDetails.html
But my issue is How do i Display this HTML Tabular format in Body of mail
using mutt or mailx command
Note: Not as attachment
Output should be display in mail like below html tabular format
i want to mail the contents of a log file of another script . I have tried the code it works , but however the output is not i expected. I want the output in line by line exactly like in LOG.txt, but i get it in as a paragraph in the body.
my $HOME ='/apps/stephen/data';
my $FILE ="$HOME/LOG.txt";
my #HTML =();
sub copyfile
{
`$HOME/APPL.ksh > $FILE`;
push(#HTML,`cat $FILE`);
&sendMail;
}
sub sendMail
{
$sub="TEST";
$from='ABC#ABC.com';
$to='ABC#ABC.com';
open(MAIL, "|/usr/lib/sendmail -t");
print MAIL "From: $from \12"; print MAIL "To: $to \12";print MAIL "Cc: $Cc \12";
print MAIL "Subject: $sub \12";
print MAIL "Content-Type: text/html \12";
print MAIL "Content-Disposition:inline \12";
print MAIL #HTML;
close(MAIL);
}
sub init
{
copyfile;
}
init;
Add missing MIME-Version: header to complete Content-*: headers.
open(MAIL, "|/usr/lib/sendmail -i -t");
print MAIL << "END";
From: $from
To: $to
Cc: $Cc
Subject: $sub
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Disposition: inline
END
print MAIL #HTML;
close(MAIL)

I am facing problems in sending html mail with attachemnt.I will able to send mail with
attachment (plain text ) using mailx -s and uuencode command and also html mail
without attachment using sendmail option.
However I am not able to send html mail along with attachment.
Either one of it is working (html mail or attachment)
Below are the different ways I have tried. Could you please help me in resolving the same.
1) Failed because of illegal option base64
#!/usr/bin/ksh
export MAILTO="abc#abc.com"
export SUBJECT="Mail Subject"
export BODY="card_summary_mail.html"
export ATTACH="query5_result.csv"
(
echo "To: $MAILTO"
echo "Subject: $SUBJECT"
echo "MIME-Version: 1.0"
echo 'Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="-q1w2e3r4t5"'
echo
echo '---q1w2e3r4t5'
echo "Content-Type: text/html"
echo "Content-Disposition: inline"
cat $BODY

echo 'Content-Type: application; name="'$(basename $ATTACH)'"'
echo "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64"
echo 'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'$(basename $ATTACH)'"'
uuencode --base64 $ATTACH $(basename $ATTACH)
echo '---q1w2e3r4t5--'
) | /usr/lib/sendmail $MAILTO
2)
cib-sokay2{u384283}323:cat test_html2.sh
{
uuencode query5_result.csv query5_result.csv > attachment.txt
cat mail.html attachment.txt > attachment2.html

Your first attempt is fairly close. Your second attempt seems to write something to a file which is then abandoned, and you feed empty input to sendmail. Your third attempt has a grave error in the MIME boundary and some peculiarities (why do you put the same content twice?), but is basically fairly similar to the first. Your fourth attempt looks fairly reasonable but old-fashioned, but could have failed because of false assumptions about how things need to be formatted (for example, if $CONTENT does not start with an empty line, your contents would go smack dab in the message headers, creating illegal headers and probably being rejected).
Assuming you have a command base64 on your system (it is included in GNU Coreutils since 6.0, almost ten years back), just replace the uuencode call with that, and fix the various minor formatting errors. Here is a refactored script which hopefully catches most of them.
#!/bin/sh
# No need to export anything, we are not passing these to child processes
MAILTO="abc#abc.com"
SUBJECT="Mail Subject"
BODY="card_summary_mail.html"
ATTACH="query5_result.csv"
( cat <<____HERE
To: $MAILTO
Subject: $SUBJECT
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="-q1w2e3r4t5"
... You could put a MIME preamble here but nobody ever reads it ...
---q1w2e3r4t5
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Disposition: inline
X-Notice: you need an empty line before the body here:
____HERE
cat "$BODY"
# also notice empty line at beginning of next snippet
cat <<____THERE
---q1w2e3r4t5
X-Notice: just "application" is incompletely specified
Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name="$(basename "$ATTACH")"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="$(basename "$ATTACH")"
X-Notice: another empty line
____THERE
base64 "$ATTACH"
echo '---q1w2e3r4t5--'
) | /usr/lib/sendmail "$MAILTO"
However, assembling your own MIME structure gets tired really fast -- I would recommend looking for a command-line MUA with proper attachment support (mutt is popular; some modern mail/mailx clones have similar facilities, but it's not standard).
Also, there is nothing ksh-specific here, so I changed the shebang.
Your first attempt is almost correct. Just replace --base64 by -m as shown below:
#!/usr/bin/ksh
export MAILTO="abc#abc.com"
export SUBJECT="Mail Subject"
export BODY="card_summary_mail.html"
export ATTACH="query5_result.csv"
(
echo "To: $MAILTO"
echo "Subject: $SUBJECT"
echo "MIME-Version: 1.0"
echo 'Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="-q1w2e3r4t5"'
echo
echo '---q1w2e3r4t5'
echo "Content-Type: text/html"
echo "Content-Disposition: inline"
cat "$BODY"
echo '---q1w2e3r4t5'
echo 'Content-Type: application; name="'$(basename "$ATTACH")'"'
echo "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64"
echo 'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'$(basename "$ATTACH")'"'
uuencode -m "$ATTACH" "$(basename "$ATTACH")"
echo '---q1w2e3r4t5--'
) | /usr/lib/sendmail $MAILTO
I have a script like this which sends html emails. I am trying to include images into my html emails. Is this possible ? File has to use this function. I'm not looking for some quick one liner instead of my function because of file manipulations I have done in my script. When I send out emails I back a [X] instead of my image.
Email function of my script.
#!/bin/bash
Email()
{
export MAILTO="ADC#aol.com"
export CONTENT="file"
export SUBJECT="Report"
(
echo "Subject: $SUBJECT"
echo "To : $MAILTO"
echo "MIME-Version: 1.0"
echo "Content-Type: text/html"
echo "Content-Disposition: inline"
cat "$CONTENT"
) | /usr/sbin/sendmail $MAILTO
}
Email
File I am sending "file"
<html>
<body>
<img src="/home/admin/Afriendlycow.png">
</body>
</html>
I attempt to try just the file name instead of the path such as Afriendlycow.png but it does not work also.
You are not attaching any images. A proper HTML email with images is a multipart/related containing one text/html part and one or more image/* parts. They should have a Content-Id: header with a unique identifier as its value; the HTML refers to them using <img src="cid:identifier">.
I am trying to send out 100 emails with HTML text body as follows :
Hello XYZ, I went to your Company X in PlaceY yesterday and was
impressed. I want to propose to you ProductZ. XYZ would be benefited by Productz
Subheading in Bold Are you interested?
Thanks
I want a tool where I can input XYZ, X, PlaceY and ProductZ just once and it fill it everywhere instead of having me manually edit the whole thing, and gives me an HTML content I can copy paste to my email client (Thunderbird)
Any advice on such a tool/or process
Thanks
using php is very easy
only need to add a PHP tags to open before the code and after de code to close it , i give you a function that can do what you want to do
/* " <?PHP" <- to open the tag, and, "?>" <- to close the tag */
<?PHP function sendemail($XYZ, $X, $PlaceY, $ProductZ, $emailto)
{
$subject = "your subject here";
$body = "<html><body>Hello $XYZ, I went to your Company $X in $PlaceY yesterday and was impressed. I want to propose to you $ProductZ. $XYZ would be benefited by $Productz <br><br><b>Subheading in Bold<b><br> Are you interested?<br><br>Thanks</body></html>";
$headers = "From: fromemail#yourdomain.com \r\n" ;
$headers .= 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1' . "\r\n";
"X-Mailer: php";
if (mail($emailto, $subject, $body, $headers))
{
return 1;
}
} ?>
