Hi Matt,
Here is the cron job I use to generate a daily reminder
e-mail. Maybe it will help...
Mikkel
# Set the following variables as appropriate for your system
REMIND=/usr/local/bin/remind
MAIL=/bin/mail
RM="/bin/rm -f"
REMFILE=/tmp/RemFile.$$
# Scan each user's directory for a .reminders file
for i in $USERS
do
HOME=`grep \^$i: /etc/passwd | awk -F: '{print $6}'`
if [ -r $HOME/.reminders ]; then
$REMIND -u$i -h -r -q -iremind_all=1 $HOME/.reminders < /dev/null >
$REMFILE
if [ -s $REMFILE ]; then
$MAIL -s "Reminders" $i < $REMFILE
fi
$RM $REMFILE
fi
done
