You are just dumping the two uuencoded files into the body with no indication that they are attachments, so I would expect that the mail you receive at the destination is just the uuencoded files.

I did a couple of rounds of quick tests here (SuSE Linux) and this seems to do what you want:

Code:
echo "There should be attachments" | mail  -s "subject" -a file1.csv -a file2.csv user@system.com

The -a option attaches file 1 and file 2 rather than putting them into the body. Unless your destination knows how to deal with a uuencoded file, you will still have issues if you attach the uuencoded files. If you were uuencoding to "get them through the mail," then the attachment option should do any necessary encoding (quoted printable or base64 if the data is binary) and the mail reader at the other end should know how to deal with either of those two encoding types. Thus, I think the files that you need to supply on the command line are the names of the original .csv files.

Note that I used mail and not mailx; mailx on my system didn't support -a. You might want to read the man page for both mail and mailx.

Hope this gets you further along.

DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Oracle::WhereJoins(3pm)	User Contributed Perl Documentation	DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Oracle::WhereJoins(3pm)

NAME
DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Oracle::WhereJoins - Oracle joins in WHERE syntax support (instead of ANSI). PURPOSE
This module is used with Oracle < 9.0 due to lack of support for standard ANSI join syntax. SYNOPSIS
DBIx::Class should automagically detect Oracle and use this module with no work from you. DESCRIPTION
This class implements Oracle's WhereJoin support. Instead of: SELECT x FROM y JOIN z ON y.id = z.id It will write: SELECT x FROM y, z WHERE y.id = z.id It should properly support left joins, and right joins. Full outer joins are not possible due to the fact that Oracle requires the entire query be written to union the results of a left and right join, and by the time this module is called to create the where query and table definition part of the SQL query, it's already too late. METHODS
See DBIx::Class::SQLMaker::OracleJoins for implementation details. BUGS
Does not support full outer joins. Probably lots more. SEE ALSO
