Question Error when sending mail attachment

I have been sending an email attachment from my unix box, but keep getting an error? All though the recipient still receives the email and attachment. Will this error cause problems in the future and how to I cure it?


$ uuencode PReSvPRINTER.txt file | mailx -s "File" me@world.com
uuencode: ISO8859-15 to 646 conversion: Invalid argument

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I think the problem is because the ISO8859-15 you're using is not supported by uuencode... but if the attachment is ok, then you don't have to worry...

If you want to get rid of the message, send the output to /dev/null with:
uuencode file 2> /dev/null | mailx -s "File" me@world.com
