.SH DESCRIPTION
.B Mailx\-if\-not\-empty
is a simply wrapper around
.B mailx\fR(1), 
which will not send the submitted email if the body is empty. 

It is intended to prevent 
.B srf\fR(1)
triggering two emails (the first empty and the second stating that the first is empty)
when it has nothing to report, but could be useful in other situations; e.g. for any silent 
command piped to 
.B mailx\fR(1)
in a cronjob
(see 
.B cron\fR(8)).
