#quFollow the my shell programming guidelines as in the other assignments.
Write a shell script to send a customized mail message to the users listed on the command line by login (user) name, only if they are currently logged on.

In the mail message, you should use the full (real) name from the passwd file (/etc/passwd).
You also need to sign the script with the real name of the person who is running the script.

PLEASE ONLY SEND THIS MESSAGE TO USERS WHICH YOU KNOW PERSONALLY.
