email attachment, with a message using mailx
Hi, I am trying to include a message along with an attachment with an email using mailx on AIX.
uuencode Test.dat Test.dat| mailx -s 'Testing'
mymail@yahoo.com < MESGFILE
This only gives me the contents of MESGFILE as my message.
If I remove the < FILE I recieve the attachment.
What I want is both the attachent and the message in MESGFILE.
I've checked out the FAQ and I would really like to use mailx so I don't have to wait a month to have my admin install any new tools. Any help/ideas would be appreciated.

mail::verify
Mail::Verify(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mail::Verify(3pm)
NAME
Mail::Verify - Utility to verify an email address
SYNOPSIS
use Mail::Verify;
DESCRIPTION
"Mail::Verify" provides a function CheckAddress function for verifying email addresses. First the syntax of the email address is checked,
then it verifies that there is at least one valid MX server accepting email for the domain. Using Net::DNS and IO::Socket a list of MX
records (or, falling back on a hosts A record) are checked to make sure at least one SMTP server is accepting connections.
ERRORS
Here are a list of return codes and what they mean:
0 The email address appears to be valid.
1 No email address was supplied.
2 There is a syntaxical error in the email address.
3 There are no DNS entries for the host in question (no MX records or A records).
4 There are no live SMTP servers accepting connections for this email address.
EXAMPLES
This example shows obtaining an email address from a form field and verifying it.
use CGI qw/:standard/;
use Mail::Verify;
my $q = new CGI;
[...]
my $email = $q->param("emailaddr");
my $email_ck = Mail::Verify::CheckAddress( $email );
if( $email_ck ) {
print '<h1>Form input error: Invalid email address.</h1>';
}
[...]
