Sending an email with a body and attachments using uuencode

Hi,

Im having a bit of an issue with using the uuencode command and sending out an email.

My aim is to send an email out which has a body and also have attachments. Currently I can either get one or the other and not both on the same email.


uuencode /apps/Backup_Verification/DB_Structure_Files_AB/main.txt Main_prorest.txt > /apps/Backup_Verification/tmp/out.mail
uuencode /apps/Backup_Verification/DB_Structure_Files_BB/main.st Main_structure.txt >> /apps/Backup_Verification/tmp/out.mail

cat /apps/Backup_Verification/email-body.txt >> /apps/Backup_Verification/tmp/out.mail

/usr/local/bds/mailsend.s mailx "Backup Verification" <email address> <email address> /apps/Backup_Verification/tmp/out.mail


This just ignores the body and creates an email with the 2 attachments

Any help will be much appreciated as Ive been stuck on this for ages Smilie
