Hi, am trying to pipe output from time command and output from a shell script to the mail program. So far it's not working as expected... # time echo "test" 2>&1 | mail -s "timetest" my at mail.com real 0m0.126s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.000s The time command writes to stderror, but here the redirection seems to apply to the echo command? Thx Rainer
