I decided to use "mpack" - short&sweet. Very useful, although I do have to
now install and manage yet another binary :-(

Subject: Sending attachements - email
I have a requirement to send a dated filename as an attachement from a cron
job. I'm currently using uuencode to send the file as an attachment with
mailx.
ie:
uuencode <filename*.lst> <filename'date +%Y-%m-%d'.txt> | mailx
user at domain.com <mailto:user at domain.com>
Only problem is that the cron job has to run the day after the dated
filename is created. The way I'm doing it, the attached filename is dated
with todays date and note yesterdays or the actual filename name.
1. Does mailx or sendmail support sending attachements - if so, any tips on
sending them without uuencoding first would be great. 2. How do you just
uuencode a filename that changes (date) daily and have it sent with
yesterdays date?
Any help on this one would be great!
Thanks...Andre
