Mimesender (Perderabo): no attachment in email message

Hello, all,
I have been trying to use what Perderabo has given to send attachment via email., but I am not getting the attachments, what I see on the receiving email system are the attachments contents inside the body of the received email. No attachment icon shows in the received email.
I am on AIX 6.1 and I am issuing the command like:
Code:
mimesender.ksh -t mytarget@abc.com -A example.ksh -D example.txt

And I would expect a blank body email to arrive at mytarget with an attachment named example.txt, instead the email arrives and the listing of example.txt is inside the body of the email preceded by these lines:
Code:
Content-Type: text/plain; name="example.ksh"
  Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="example.txt"

What am I doing wrong?
Please help if you can.
Thanks!
