If everyone has their own directory under /home, you could do what I do: 1. create a text file with the message you want to send. 2. cd /home 3. for x in * ; do cat ~/mail.txt |mail $j ; done Works well enough, though I'm sure you could come up more efficient methods. I actually use a script that will extract usernames from /etc/passwd, then mail out the file to each username.
