Solaris bash script using grep giving error

[iowaprogrammer]

Trying to run the following one liner in a bash script to check our mailq for big users. But I receive the error below when trying to run from a script instead of command line. Command line it works great. Anybody have a solution or alternative?

#!/usr/bin/bash
mailq|grep ^[A-F0-9]|cut -c 42-80|sort |uniq -c|sort -n|tail > /tmp/qResults


result:

checkQueue.sh: [A-F0-9]: not found
Usage: grep -hblcnsviw pattern file . . .
.#

 

[PHV]

mailq|grep [!]'[/!]^[A-F0-9][!]'[/!]

Hope This Helps, PH.

Hmmm...interesting. That did the trick for me, Thank you PHV. Figured it would be something simple that I was missing.
