Hmm. My uuencode (AIX 5.3) needs only one parameter, which is the input file. If you want the output to go to <stdout> as the following pipe suggests then either use "/dev/stdout" as output file or leave it out altogether, which will cause uuencode to use <stdout> as the default output device. In any case it is at least counter-intuitive (and might well be harmful) to use the same filename for source and destination.

I hope this helps

NAME

       claws-mail-attach-warner -- Missing attachments warning before sending

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the claws-mail-attach-warner

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       claws-mail-attach-warner is a plugin (loadable module) for the Claws Mail mailer.

       It's  aimed  at	prevention of forgetting attachments, by warning the user if some attachment is mentioned in the mail text but no attached
       file is found in the composed mail.

USAGE

       Before using a plugin you must instruct Claws Mail to load it on startup.

       For this you must go ``Configuration'' menu on main window toolbar, open ``Plugins...'' dialog, click on the ``Load plugin...'' button  and
       select the plugin file, named attachwarner.so, and press the ``Open'' button.

SEE ALSO

       claws-mail (1), claws-mail-extra-plugins (1).
