Hello! I have a nifty script that adds a network printer. 99% of the time it works. It's that other 1% that I need to program for. Rather than display some ugly system error message, I'd like to gracefully display a message indicating that the printer was not installed and to contact X for...

Haven't tried it yet, but found the following on the same website: http://dev.isystek.com/dbi/fom-serve/cache/100.html and http://dev.isystek.com/dbi/fom-serve/cache/101.html Bob

Siberian, Thanks for taking the time to reply. I already have code for sending attachments, as mentioned in my original post. What I'm trying to figure out how to do is call the said script from a shell script and pass a couple variables: the To: address and the path to the file attachment...
