Are there any mail services running on your system? It should be running in order to send an email. Meanwhile, if it's running then you can send attachment as follow:

Code:

uuencode /path/to/file/ /path/to/file/ | mailx -s "<subject>" <recipient_mail_id>

For instance, if you want to send a file named /home/jack/sample.txt as an attachment to peter@somehost.com, use:

Code:

uuencode /home/jack/sample.txt /home/jack/sample.txt | mailx -s "Sample Test" peter@somehost.com
