The file names are identical but unique?

Do you mean send mail to a bunch of users?

for user in tom dick harry; do
  uuencode $user/identical.pdf | mailx -s "Your personal PDF" $user@domain.example.com
done

This assumes you have three users, and three directories named after those users. So it will send tom/identical.pdf to tom@domain.example.com, dick/identical.pdf to dick@domain.example.com, and harry/identical.pdf to harry@domain.example.com

If this is not what you wanted, perhaps you can explain in more detail.

Update: Apparently Lotsa Nuts doesn't grok uuencode so you will need something like http://www.unix.com/faq-submission-queue/17066-multiple-attachments.html

Yeah, Notes is finicky when it comes to 'uuencode'. One way 'round is to tar up file(s) first and then uuencode it - something along these lines:

for user in tom dick harry; do
  tar cvf /tmp/$user_identical.tar $user/identical.pdf
  ( uuencode /tmp/$user_identical.tar /tmp/$user_identical.tar) | mailx -s "Your personal PDF" $user@domain.example.com
  \rm -rf /tmp/$user_identical.tar 2>/dev/null
done

Or of course with multiple attachments!
