uuencode how to mail attachments question
 

Can anyone tell me whats wrong with this line


uuencode $file2 | mailx -s "PROD Archive Backup ${date}" admin@host < $file1


So the goal is to mail file2 as an attachment and have a body of file1


Any help is greatly appreciated -


Thx,

Boyd

The decode_pathname option is missing for the uuencode command.

FYI here's what i found to work -

(cat $file2; uuencode $file1 <attachment_name>)| mailx -s "attached file with body msg"
