<Mail> attachment param is not working under system function

Hi Guys,


I have executed the mail command that has attachment with filename as current date enclosed in system function that is added under awk command.
I have used awk command to check if the error code is present in the file then email command sends an email with subject Error Code ,body provided in the file 'mailmessage.txt' and attachment of current date file .


Code:
awk '{if ($1 ~ /BIP8071I/)  {
DATE="`date '+%d%m%Y'`"
system("mail -s" $1 "test\\ "Information"\ emailid -a /home/test/abc_$DATE.txt <  /home/test/mailmessage.txt")
}


This command has executed without any flaws. But when I received the email, I didn't find the attachment . Instead, the -a parameter is coming in to section of the email box as provided in the attachment.
&lt;Mail&gt; attachment param is not working under system function-27th-oct-emailpng

Can anyone suggest if this can be possible in system function.


Thanks.
