Think there might be a bug on my mail server (Lotus notes) not able to decode multiple attachments. Referred the following link.
http://linux.die.net/man/1/uuencode.

Tried the following in the command prompt, but still giving junk characters for the second file
uuencode first first.txt | uuencode second second.txt.| mailx -s "Sub " mailid
(first and second are valid files)

Please let me know if it can be resolved.
Thanks,
Srivatsan
