Please state your Operating System and version, and identify your mail client. An example of how you send a mail without an attachment helps.

Just on the offchance. Program "uuencode" is lower case.

To check whether "uuencode" is available:
Code:
type uuencode
whence uuencode

TAILF(1)							   User Commands							  TAILF(1)

NAME
tailf - follow the growth of a log file SYNOPSIS
tailf [OPTION] file DESCRIPTION
tailf will print out the last 10 lines of a file and then wait for the file to grow. It is similar to tail -f but does not access the file when it is not growing. This has the side effect of not updating the access time for the file, so a filesystem flush does not occur peri- odically when no log activity is happening. tailf is extremely useful for monitoring log files on a laptop when logging is infrequent and the user desires that the hard disk spin down to conserve battery life. Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too. -n, --lines=N, -N output the last N lines, instead of the last 10. -V, --version Output version information and exit. -h, --help Display help and exit.
