Hello ROCK_PLSQL,

Could you please try following and let me know if this helps you.

Code:

####Define function here to send email.
sendmail_touser() {
export MAILPART=$(uuidgen)
export MAILPART_BODY=$(uuidgen)
{
        echo "From: $MAILFROM"
        echo "TO: $MAILTO"
        echo "Subject: $SUBJECT"
        echo "MIME-Version: 1.0"
        echo "Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"$MAILPART\""
        echo "--$MAILPART"
        echo "Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=\"$MAILPART_BODY\""
        echo ""
        echo "--$MAILPART_BODY"
        echo "Content-Type: text/html"
        echo "Content-Disposition: inline"
        cat $Input_file_to_be_printed_in_BODY
        echo "--$MAILPART_BODY--"
        echo ""
        echo "--$MAILPART"
        echo "Content-Type: text/plain; name=testCPUID3.txt"
        echo "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64"
        echo "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$Input_file_needed_to_be_attached"
        echo ""
        base64 $Input_file_needed_to_be_attached
        echo "--$MAILPART--"
} | /usr/sbin/sendmail -t
}
####Call function here to send email.
sendmail_touser

You could define values of variables above like MAILFROM,MAILTO,SUBJECT,Input_file_to_be_printed_in_BODYandInput_file_needed_to_be_attached as per your need.

Thanks,
R. Singh
