No, it's only example - some textfile including some text = message body. Attachment is some binary file.
Previous only example how nice method HERE is to make ex. mail template.
Code:
/usr/lib/sendmail -t -i <<EOF
To:  emailid.test@email.com
Subject: Here is some 

$(uuencode some.some some.some )

EOF

Code:
/usr/lib/sendmail -t -i <<EOF
To:  emailid.test@email.com
Subject: Here is some 

Some body text and attachment also.

$(uuencode some.zip some.zip )

EOF

Try it, easy to see result.

You need only sendmail binary - somewhere = give the path
and shell ex. bash, ksh, dash, ... Operating system - select some.

If you have old Bourne Shell, nothing else, then you must write command substitution using old format
$( cmd ) => ` cmd `
Code:
/usr/lib/sendmail -t -i <<EOF
To:  emailid.test@email.com
Subject: Here is some 

`uuencode some.some some.some `

EOF

wwsetup(8)						      System Manager's Manual							wwsetup(8)

NAME
wwsetup, wnn - Sets up the 8-bit option for sendmail and the Wnn character-cell input method for Japanese SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/wwsetup DESCRIPTION
The wwsetup script performs one or both of the following tasks: Enables or disables 8-bit transmission code, which is an option supported by sendmail software By default, sendmail uses the 7-bit SMTP mail transmission protocol that is the standard for sending mail over a TCP/IP network. Note that enabling the 8-bit option is not generally recommended because it violates the SMTP mail transmission protocol. Config- ures the Wnn software that supports a character-cell input method that is widely used in Japan If the Tru64 UNIX IOSJPWNNnnn subset is installed, the wwsetup script asks if you want to create the following links if they do not already exist on the system: /usr/local/bin/Wnn4 --> /usr/i18n/bin/Wnn4 /usr/local/bin/wnn --> /usr/i18n/lib/wnn The script also prompts you to enter the password for Wnn dictionaries if they do not already exist on the system. Both the links and the dictionary password must be in place before Wnn software can be used. SEE ALSO
Commands: sendmail(8), jserver(1wnn) Note that the jserver(1wnn) reference page is available only in Japanese and is included in the subset that contains Japanese translations of reference pages. Others: i18n_intro(5), Japanese(5), l10n_intro(5) wwsetup(8)
