First reaction is to give the attachment a valid MS-DOS name.
Code:
uuencode /usr/local/bin/sched/nightly_Cronjob/test.out myattach.txt | mailx -s "COMPLETED: deal.sh" me@nowhere

And to consider converting the attachment to MS-DOS format.
Code:
ux2dos /usr/local/bin/sched/nightly_Cronjob/test.out | uuencode myattach.txt | mailx -s "COMPLETED: deal.sh" me@nowhere

Failing that, please mention what Operating System and Shell you are using and describe what happens.

Does mailx without an attachment work?
What mail reader are you using?

rcvpack

RCVPACK(1)                                                           [nmh-1.5]                                                          RCVPACK(1)

NAME

       rcvpack - append message to file

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/mh/rcvpack file [-mbox] [-mmdf] [-version] [-help]

DESCRIPTION

       The rcvpack program will append a copy of the message to the file listed on its command line.

       If the -mbox switch is given (the default), then the messages are separated using mbox (uucp) style delimiters.  This is the format used by
       most mail clients (elm, mailx, etc.).

       If the -mmdf switch is given, then the messages are separated by mmdf style delimiters.  Each message in the  file  is  separated  by  four
       CTRL-A's and a newline.

       rcvpack will correctly lock and unlock the file to serialize access to the file, when running multiple copies of rcvpack .

       In general, its use is obsoleted by the file action of slocal, although it might still have occasional uses in various shell scripts.

FILES

       /etc/nmh/mts.conf          nmh mts configuration file

SEE ALSO

       rcvdist(1), rcvstore(1), rcvtty(1), slocal(1)

BUGS

       Only two return codes are meaningful, others should be.
