Send email with attachment and body : mailx , waiting for input , signal Control D
Hi,
I am trying to send email with attacment and body using "mailx"
(cat body.txt; uuencode attach.txt) | mailx -s "Attachment"

When i type this command, the shell is still waiting for me to enter something in standard input and press control D before it sends a mail and completes the command line.
Can you please let me know how can I skip this since I want to send the above mail in automated shell script and user will not be there to press control D
Pls see attachmet. Shell I am using is CShell.

NAME
calibre-smtp - part of calibre
SYNOPSIS
calibre-smtp [options] [from to text]
DESCRIPTION
Send mail using the SMTP protocol. calibre-smtp has two modes of operation. In the compose mode you specify from to and text and these are
used to build and send an email message. In the filter mode, calibre-smtp reads a complete email message from STDIN and sends it.
text is the body of the email message. If text is not specified, a complete email message is read from STDIN. from is the email address
of the sender and to is the email address of the recipient. When a complete email is read from STDIN, from and to are only used in the SMTP
negotiation, the message headers are not modified.
Whenever you pass arguments to calibre-smtp that have spaces in them, enclose the arguments in quotation marks.

-h, --help
