email attachment, with a message using mailx

Hi, I am trying to include a message along with an attachment with an email using mailx on AIX.

uuencode Test.dat Test.dat| mailx -s 'Testing' mymail@yahoo.com < MESGFILE

This only gives me the contents of MESGFILE as my message.

If I remove the < FILE I recieve the attachment.

What I want is both the attachent and the message in MESGFILE.

I've checked out the FAQ and I would really like to use mailx so I don't have to wait a month to have my admin install any new tools. Any help/ideas would be appreciated.
