Re: [HTCondor-users] alternative to email

Rita,

As Klaus said, the body of the message ends up being the STDIN for your script. The remainder is passed as arguments, for example:

-s [Condor] Condor Job 15.0 condor@cycleserver40vm

I used the simple Bash script below to capture STDIN and arguments:

###
#!/bin/bash

outfile="/tmp/condormail.`date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S`"
echo "Arguments:" >> $outfile
echo $@ >> $outfile

echo "Stdin:" >> $outfile
while read line <&0; do
    echo $line >> $outfile
done

###

Hope this helps,

BC
