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.

reporter-mailx [-v] -d DIR [-c CONFFILE] DESCRIPTION

Properties of email messages can be specified in a configuration file, and via environment variables. Configuration file Configuration file contains entries in a format "Option = Value". The options are: Subject The subject of the email message. EmailFrom The sender of the email message. EmailTo The recipient of the email message. SendBinaryData Use yes/true/on/1 to attach all binary files from the problem directory to the email. This can cause the emails to be very large. Integration with ABRT events reporter-mailx can be used as a reporter, to allow users report problems via email when they decide to do it. This usage is pre-configured in /etc/libreport/events.d/mailx_event.conf: EVENT=report_Mailx reporter-mailx It can also be used to notify administrator automatically when a problem happens. When this is desired, modify the event configuration file to run the tool on the post-create event: EVENT=post-create reporter-mailx OPTIONS

Mailx_EmailTo Recipient of the email message. If nor the environment variable nor the corresponding option is defined, the message is send to "root@localhost".
