I should have pointed out that the output will not get
to you (the web client) obviously if you use |<shell
command>| .. it does however get executed ...

I mailed the output to a yahoo.com address ..

So an example to test it could be
|id|mail+emailaddress|

Surrounding it in pipes was the only way I could get it
to execute, otherwise it would return open errors ..
