Hello all,

I need to send an attachment and text in the body, both in the same Email.

Below are two cammand that send the required data in separate Emails. I need to combine them so that I get just 1 Email containing the attachment & text in the body.

uuencode ${filename}  "${file_}" | mailx -s "WEEKLY AUOMATED TAPOUT RATING AUDIT REPORT" myemail@address.com
#mailx -s "WEEKLY AUOMATED  REPORT" myemail@address.com < /export/home/test/summary.txt

Help !

} | mailx -s "WEEKLY AUTOMATED TAPOUT RATING AUDIT REPORT" myemail@address.com

root@machine #{
>cat /export/home/test/summary.txt uuencode ${filename} "${file_}"
>} | mailx -s "WEEKLY AUTOMATED TAPOUT RATING AUDIT REPORT" myemail@address.com
cat: cannot open uuencode
cat: cannot open

I did get the Email on my ID with body but No attachment.

You must define both variables ${filename} and "${file_}" !
The first is the file to be read, the second is the name in the attachment.

Does it have to be both in the body? Depending on your mailx version, you could use the -a option to attach a file.
