The script sends the file directly to my SMTP server. Especially when sending more than one related patch, I find it much more accurate to prepare the small text file indicating To, Cc, Bcc, Subject, local-patch-pathname for each patch in the set at my leisure, in my text editor, until it all looks right, then issue a single command to send it all off. Email clients, especially the gui ones I'm fond of, are not well suited to such work. There are various such 'patch-bomb' scripts out there - mine is available at: http://www.speakeasy.org/~pj99/sgi/sendpatchset See the embedded Usage string for documentation. The script checks out everything it can, including file paths and email addresses (by verifying them with the SMTP server) before it sends anything, further increasing the chance that if something is sent, it's all sent and correctly so. -- I won't rest till it's the best ...
