I added the line of code to my script and this is what is reported:
>>>> mkdigest excellent-digest wwamcs
producing Excellent Digest V1 #12
processing /var/lib/majordomo/digest/excellent-digest/001
$mailer is '/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -oee -f$sender'
$mailcmd is '/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -oee -fowner-excellent@odc.net
'.
sh: excellent-digest-outgoing: command not found
>>>> end
END OF COMMANDS
As you can see it added a newline at the end of the $mailcmd (after the
eval). I added a "chop($mailcmd);" in the script right above the system
command and I finally got my first digest. I never thought about actually
going into the code and editing it myself, I always figured that if it
broke on me, then it was broken for everyone else and it would've been
fixed. Oh well, a very cool learning experience.
