If you want to send all users on one system , then you can use cut or awk
Using cut,
mail `cut -d : -f 1 /etc/passwd` <Message_file
Using Awk,
mail `awk -F: '$3>499 {print $1}' /etc/passwd` <message_file
User ID less than are pseudo users. So, we have to send mail to real user
only. THen, I filter with '$3>499 {print $1'.
Note:- You must use back quote in quoting.
