Send Files as Attachments through email

Dear Members,

I am trying to send a file as an attachment from the command prompt in Linux.

I am using the following:

Code:
(echo "Find attached Exception Report"; uuencode $DATA_TOP/out/data/$err_rpt_file $err_rpt_file)|/bin/mailx -s "***Exceptions Found" davidk@xyz.com

Here err_rpt_file variable contains the actual file name(eg : test.txt).

I am getting the email with attachment without any problem, but when i open the test.txt file in notepad every thing is wrapping up in a single line and i see carriage returns at the end of each line. When i view text.txt in linux via VI editor it looks perfect. Not sure what is happening there; uuencode is some how putting those carriage returns at the end of each line. Not sure how to resolve this problem.

Your Comments are greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Sandeep
