this will give you something nice

Code:
awk 'BEGIN{print "Subject:Bash rocks!\nFrom:Whoever <your@email.com>"}{printf("%s\015\n", $0)}' filecontentsforbody.txt | sendmail -t your@email.com

but this will only give you a nice email with filecontentsforbody.txt as the email body. I don't know how to attach somefile.zip or whatever to your email.
