You need to be more specific about your problem:
Quote:
using mailx does not attach the file, but subsititing mailx for mail on the command line attaches the file but i'm not able to specify a subject
If you use mailx -s "test"
myself@somedomain.com < /etc/hosts
do you get the email with a subject as 'test'?
If you use mailx -s "test"
myself@somedomain.com < uuencodefile, what happens?
Please explain further on stating "mailx does not attach the file" versus "substituting mailx for mail...attaches the file"
