mailx and uuencode question

ssmiths001 · #1 (**permalink**) 10-20-2005

I have this code below that works well. I also want to attach a logfile to the email. The first part of this code is the body of the email.

Code:

      echo "The size of $dirname/$f1 size = $f1size, and $dirname/$f2 = $f2size'" | mailx -s "Error with file sizes on $HOST Server" xyz@company.com

This is how I changed it, but I don't get the attachment. I need the body AND the attachment.

Code:

uuencode /opt/manu/srv/test.log test.log | echo "The size of $dirname/$f1 size = $f1size, and $dirname/$f2 = $f2size'" | mailx -s "Error with file sizes on $HOST Server" xyz@company.com
