Hello to the list,

i'm looking for another email add-on to Xymon (or another script) other than html_mail.pl which I'm currently using.
The html_mail.pl works fine, but now I'm in the situation to send emails to a MS Teams subchannel, and the result is useless, because it's totally mis-formatted in MS Teams.

I tried using the Xymon built-in mail function without html_mail.pl, but this is also not really nice, I'ld like to have at least the red / yellow / green icons together with a black background.
My knowledge isn't good enough to modify html_mail.pl to my needs.

Any idea?

Stay at home - stay healthy!

Best regards from Germany
Christian

Here's a simple HTML email template I wrote in bash script a few years ago.  You can customize it to your needs quite easily.

#!/bin/bash

SENDEMAIL="/usr/sbin/sendmail -f xymon at la-z-boy.com -t"
EMBOUND=asdf1234

$SENDEMAIL << EOF
To: ${RCPT}
From: xymon at yourdomain.com
Subject: ${SUBJECT}
Content-Type: multipart/related;
        boundary=${EMBOUND};
        type="Text/HTML"
MIME-Version: 1.0
--${EMBOUND}
Content-Type: text/html; charset=US-ASCII

<html>
<body>

<pre>
Pre-formatted text here

HTML here

</body>
</html>

EOF
