HI
I have a small query !! I need to write a script whenever there is an error generated in the spamd.log or any general log file to send me a mail only once, the bellow script is what i came u with but i doubt it would work.
if [ $(grep -e "unable to start service" /var/log/spamd.log) = 1 ] ; then mail -s " pls check server IP 203.185.XXX>XXX" agnello.dsouza@gmail.com fi
