From a program, I want to execute a UNIX elm command that will send multiple txt attachment files to an email address. I can do it for one attachment only ie. "elm -s"subject" emailaddress < attachment.txt"
1. The attachment is received in the body of the email and not as an attachment.
2. The command only permits me to re-direct one file and I need anywhere from one to seven files

How can I (from a program and not interactive) a: force it as attachment and b: specify multiple attachments files?
If I cannot do it with command line options do I have to edit and make some config file settings for elm. As this is my first time using it, can anyone give me an example of a elm config file(s) with settings to force attachments and where I can specify the file names to be used to attach to the email??
I would need the config file name, header config file name (if applicable) and the file contents.

Thanks so much for any assistance ASAP!
