Sending Email with Attachment

Hi,

I want to send an email with multiple attachment using uuencode and mail command.

I am able to send with one attachment

Ex:uuencode abc.txt abc.txt | mail test@test.com -s "Test3"

Can anyone reply with syntax.

Regards
BS

What is the error you are getting with that command line.

uuencode abc.txt abc.txt | mail -s "Test3" test@test.com

Thanks for your quick reply. I am not getting any error here. I need to send an email with multiple attachments.

Finally I have found the solution to send an email with multiple attachment using uuencode command

(echo "$EMAIL_BODY"; uuencode $ATTACH_LOG_FILE l$REQUEST_ID.req; uuencode $ATTACH_OUT_FILE o$REQUEST_ID.out) | mail "$EMAIL_ID" -s "$EMAIL_SUB"

Regards
BS

another solution is a program call "email" with the "--attach" option:
