Sudo mail system

The sudo mail command!

sudo mail is a command that allows you to send an email message to the system administrator (usually the root user) or to a specific email address. Here's a breakdown of the command:

sudo: This is the superuser do command, which allows you to execute a command with superuser privileges.

mail: This is the command to send an email message.

system: This is the default recipient of the email message. The system recipient is usually the system administrator (root user) or the email address specified in the /etc/mail.rc file.

When you run sudo mail system, you'll be prompted to enter a subject and a message body. The email message will be sent to the system administrator or the specified email address.

Here's an example of how to use the sudo mail command:

sudo mail system
Subject: Test email from user
This is a test email message.

Press Enter to send the email message.

Note that the sudo mail command is not available on all Linux distributions, and the behavior may vary depending on the system configuration. Additionally, some systems may have alternative email clients or tools that provide similar functionality.
