There is no simple oneliner for doing this. The classic UNIX way would be to uuencode the tarball and embed it as part of your message. There are however a number of ways of building a message with an attachment.
The following should work if your version of uuencode supports the -m option (but I have no tested it!) (cat hi.txt ; uuencode -m file.tar tarball) | sendmail -f "user1@daemon.com" Here are a couple of pointers: Mailing Attachments from UNIX Sending email with a text message and an attachment from standard UNIX.
