I'm not aware of any method to make the CRON daemon send an attachment. You have two other options anyway:
1. explicitly send an e-mail to recipient $MAILTO from inside the script or at the end of the cron job, e.g.
Code:
0 4 * * * /path/to/my/job.sh && mutt -s "Subject" -a /path/to/attachment $MAILTO
2. If it is a text file you can send its content to the standard output
Code:
cat /path/to/file.txt
so that it will be displayed in the mail body together with the usual output.
