We are running solaris 9.
I can send emails using mailx with no problems.
I can send attachments using uuencode no problems.
What I can't do is change the name to .txt or .doc or anything else using uuencode. The command I am using is:
uuencode /tmp/AsetReports /tmp/AsetReports.doc | mailx -s "Weekly Aset Reports" admin
The logs and using the -v option shows that the mail is being queued:
stat=Sent (Ok: queued as 6A77F500007)
There is nothing in var/
spool/mqueue and I never receive the email. The mailq command also shows nothing as does the clientq.
As I mentioned, if I remove the .doc extension, I do indeed get the attachment just fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Zeek
