Very simple question – when I run a cron job, everything echoed gets caught and sent to me as a server notification email (not sure exactly what you’d call it). I was wondering if the format for these supports images?
Of course I could just send an email at the end of the cron with my image attached, but I’m curious as to the syntax and format of these server messages.
The output of the cron job is simply packaged up into a mail and sent to the relevant address.
So there’s nothing stopping you from (for example) uuencoding an image and pushing that out to standard output, in the right format so that it shows up as an attachment at the destination.
