Guru's,
Pardon my ignorance here, I am still rather new to this, but is there a "Generic" way to add an e-mail notification to a script? I mean like a simple piece that can be added to any script to add an e-mail notification? Or does it have to be more specific to every script?

Shalom,

This script is programmable, configurable and can even include an attachment.

Re: Email notifications

Just append a mail line to the end of the script:

echo success > /tmp/results
mailx -s "Notification Reminder" joeuser@whereever.com < /tmp/results

Or make a generic script that does the mailing as above and invoke that mail script at the end of your script, using variables to tell what script was run and the success or failure state of it.
