I am using uuencode to attach multiple zip file in one email body. The file is send to multiple recipients. I use lotus notes and can view the attachments very well and so does the gmail and yahoo recipients.
Issue is with outlook users, they see attachment as garbage. This is the command I am using
While doing search for a solution I found out Outlook can't read/distinguish attachment from uuencoded file and I have to use third party decoders.
On Unix side I found suggestions to use -m switch with mailx, which when I used got this error
is not an option for me as I have to compose one email with multiple body and their respective attachment following them, hence I am using uuencode
Please let me know what can be done to resolve this uuencode and mime format issue.
