Sending customized mail at start

I have a very simple job which sends a mail:

	Code:
	#!/bin/sh echo "Exract process Started, drop feed anytime" \| mail -s "Extract STARTED" abc@portal.com

I chose the 'Run Script' option (Batch Script -platform-dependent). It is giving an error 'Remote job failed. Exit code: 1'. But when I save this script in a file, say 'mail.sh' and run it in unix command line using '. mail.sh', it is working fine. What is wrong with it?

Why does it say "'Remote job failed?" Why remote? Is that what you want?
If it is a remote job indeed, what do you get in the scheduler.log on the remote agent side?

Yes, it looks strange :) I am still preparing the script. It should start sending mail before the process begins (rest of the codes).

If the intent is to run it as a local job, clear the Host/Agent job property. The job fails not because it fails to run your script, but because it fails to connect to the specified agent.
