Thanks. The auto-email code is basically:

spawn,/SH,'mail -s "SUBJ" user@company.com < file 2>&1 1>/dev/null', r
if strlen(strtrim(r[0],2)) ne 0 then begin
print,'Error sending email.'
endif

If "mail" is not available on your path, or if it is not configured for
sending, it will fail. Maybe you could try sending a message to yourself
from IDL via spawn in this manner and let me know the results. Make
sure something exists in "file". Is there a more generic spawn command
I could use to accomodate Alpha's?

Thanks,

JD
