I noticed you are renaming a .csv to .xls file in your code and trying to send it as an attachment:-
Code:
mv tmp.csv tmp.xls

sendWithAttachment tmp.xls

But that is not gonna work, because XLS is a proprietary binary format.

So I would suggest sending the attachment as CSV. It is supported by excel and it will show each columns in respective cells.
