Mail commands in terminal?

end?

I have no idea. I have never tried to send email from the Terminal.

hmm, it’s not end

MacPro:~ macpro$ mail macpro
Subject: test
test end
end.
.end
^C
(Interrupt—one more to kill letter)

and as you can see, the quit will just kill it, the quest continues !!

Macintosh:~ johnryanpowell$ sudo chmod g-w /

Sorry, try again.

Macintosh:~ johnryanpowell$ mail johnryanpowell
Subject: test

EOT
Macintosh:~ johnryanpowell$ mail

The period on a new line ends the message. Read this.

thanks uncle ryan, you’re my hero !

No problem.. I use the Terminal everyday. This will actually help me notify myself of reminders. So finding this out helps me too.
