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.

NAME
reporter-mailx - Sends contents of a problem directory via email.
SYNOPSIS
reporter-mailx [-v] -d DIR [-c CONFFILE]
DESCRIPTION
The tool reads a problem directory, composes an email message from the directory contents, and uses mailx to send the message to specified
recipient.
Properties of email messages can be specified in a configuration file, and via environment variables.
Configuration file
Configuration file contains entries in a format "Option = Value".
The options are:
Subject
The subject of the email message.
EmailFrom
The sender of the email message.
EmailTo
The recipient of the email message.
SendBinaryData
Use yes/true/on/1 to attach all binary files from the problem directory to the email. This can cause the emails to be very large.
Integration with ABRT events

in /etc/libreport/events.d/mailx_event.conf:
EVENT=report_Mailx reporter-mailx
It can also be used to notify administrator automatically when a problem happens. When this is desired, modify the event configuration file
to run the tool on the post-create event:
EVENT=post-create reporter-mailx
OPTIONS
-d DIR
Path to problem directory.
-c CONFFILE
